You'd have hoped not... but in January my mother's bag (flying in CE LHR-ATH) managed to be tagged to a different individual! A Greek gentleman who subsequently no-showed, causing them to be offloaded

. Only after their non-arrival did she check the receipts and found the discrepancy. After three days floating around LHR, the case turned up in ATH - just in time for her return journey
