I was sharing this with my wife tonight, trying to figure out what happened. Thrown out of the airplane from 30 K feet then set on fire for a moment, then run over by a large truck is what we concluded.

Now that is damaged!

Thank God it's not mine.

Alaska would deny it's damaged if it still rolled. Seriously. I speak from experience...

I'm guessing it got stuck in one of the belts somewhere.

Ran over then wedged in the wheel well against the tire (or against the tarmac) as the baggage cart drove a mile....

Or, as AA baggage claim would say "just normal wear and tear"

Anyone suspect this is a staged photo?

Definitely ‘staged’….someone sat their damaged bag in position and took the picture…


Although I think I know what you mean. This isnt surprising damage. Ive seen similar damage over the years
