SQ lost my bag I made some purchases and use credit card insurance for part of it, but inside bag was also to valued items designer shoes, jacket and also bag cost over 200usd can I claim both things from airline (necessary purchases - compensation from credit card , items inside bag) or not ? I got this answer from airline flight was from UK where I'm based if its mater....and flight was when we where in EU....not any more ;) "Thank you for your email. If we may clarify, you may only submit one claim to the airline: either for the items purchased or for the missing bag. Informatively it is in the passenger’s interest to ensure that the documentation submitted is complete and the information provided is true and correct. Passengers are required to sign the baggage claim form to declare that all the foregoing information is accurate. As you have submitted your claim on the baggage claim form for the items purchased we have considered this claim. Therefore, we would suggest you pursue any further claims with your travel insurers. Kind regards" If the bag has been lost for more than 21 days it is considered lost. If less than 21 days have passed it is still just considered delayed. Once 21 days have passed SQ will be liable upto SDR1,131 (about EUR1400). You will have to provide a detailed inventory of what was lost and your claim will be calculated. If you have travel insurance it may be best to claim directly from them, particularly if the value of lost items exceeds EUR1,400. No airline will generally pay out more in the case of lost luggage than what they have to under ICAO conventions. |
My question is can I get money from airline for
Essential purchases and for what was inside bags (if I provide receipts for items? I know about convention but Airline is on position what I can only take money for one not both.... |
Probably not as you say flight was from UK where you are based.
If you are based in UK the airline would expect you to have clothes and toiletries at home. |
Bag was missing in MEL quite far far away from LHR where is me home....next time I will take couch to pick up clothes from home....

I will never check a bag unless I absolutely have to. The airlines don't really care about your stuff and there is no real practical way to enforce the laws that are on the books, at least for US passengers.

As your flight was from UK you are covered by Montreal Convention - the slightly more generous one.

That was increased to 1 288 SDR on December 28, 2019 https://www.federalregister.gov/docu...ve-december-28 The Montreal Convention’s international baggage liability limit is reviewed for inflationary adjustment every five years by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). |
Resurrectiing a very old thread.
Just had a pretty disastrous journey MAN - SIN- KUL with AY 3 bags delivered 22 hours late - one totally wrecked, one damaged probably beyond repair - and one torn but probably repairable. Expensive luggage - very good but not ultraa lux.. Researching it seems I'm likely to be offered a 10% reduction per year of age? BUT - here is the rub Two of these cases are 4/5 years old Covid? Checking the history they have made only 3 single journeys and still have the warranties and some original packaging attached. They look/looked like new before clearly being thrown froma great height! I can just about accept the 20/30% discount on purchase price. But 50 will be unacceptable. Hence this post - any experience post Covid 2 year+ hiatus of received settlement offers. |

Hence this post - any experience post Covid 2 year+ hiatus of received settlement offers. If your luggage was presented to the airline intact and it was delivered to you damaged, the airline has to fix it PERIOT If they can't fix it then they have to replace it PERIOT I assume FinnAir is EC261 eligible so use the flow chart here: https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizen...r/index_en.htm I have never heard anything in my life about luggage depreciation. What source(s) did you find this information from? If you have fancy luggage then I assume you have a good credit card with good insurance so consult them first. Much easier than dealing with European corporate customer relations. If it's not EC261 and assuming origin and destination countries ratified the Montreal Convention then Montreal Convention applies. Being less than loyal to you the customer let alone the law or tready and saying that depreciation or the flu has caused the laws to no longer apply is a common trick. So is the "you are entitled 1000 under law but we will give you 600. do you accept?" line. And so is the "the missing wheels or ripped off handle is wear and tear" line adored by all baggage agents of EU airlines. Just be consistent and insist on what you are entitled and nothing less. And keep it simple. Considering inflation and that a replacement bag has probably appreciated in value since 2018, I am sorta curious why you'd want cash instead of a replacement bag but that is none of my business |
Pretty unusual story
Let me lay it out.
I just returned from Taiwan trip. My return itinerary was as follows: TSA--HAN---DFW--FLL. The ticket was purchased from Expedia on JAL, but only TSA--HAN was on JAL metal. The other 2 were on AA, in Premium Economy. Basically purchased PE to get 70% mileage award on Alaska. In TSA, I checked 3 flags wrapped together (looked like ski poles) through to my final destination. They were gifts and I have no receipts. Upon arriving at US Customs in DFW, I waited patiently for my flags (the rest of my luggage was carry on). It never arrived and the AA luggage rep said to make my claim at my final destination (FLL), which I did. Is AA responsible for my luggage or JAL? AA told me to call JAL, and DFW and HAN airports. I was given a claim no. and advised to go to AA.com/baggage or where'smysuitcase.com. Tonight will be 72 hours. What's my next step? |
Still Waiting tomorrow is 10 days
