These sums are in addition to any compensation from the carrier (which depends upon the class of travel). I got $350 I think (after some argument) when BA lost my baggage on route to SFO in F. I also had a nice little shopping trip at the Forum Shops at Ceasars in Las Vegas at Amex's expense.

Agreed - you can't beat the Amex PP cover! You almost want your bags to be delayed when you can spend £1,750 on new clothes!
