Lost Luggage: How to Avoid It and What to Do If It Happens

Lost Luggage: How to Avoid It and What to Do If It Happens

Snap a picture or luggage tag. 

You'll want it so you can describe your bag if it disappears. "The more details a customer can give the agent regarding the size, shape, color and other details of the bag, the better," Southwest spokesman Brian Parrish tells Traveler.

Put your name inside the bag. 

Most travelers put an identification tag outside the bag, but sometimes those break off, so put your contact information inside, too. Try placing your business card on top of your clothes.

Remove tags from previous trips. 

They confuse employees and baggage scanners.

Don't check anything you will need when you arrive. 

Laptops, medicine, keys, and jewelry should stay in carry-ons.

Use a tracker. 

For $50 plus an annual fee, buy a Trakdot, a palm-sized device you place in your bag. It'll deliver real-time tracking updates to your phone.

Know your airline. 

Take a look at the government's baggage statistics to calculate the odds your bag will turn up on time. Some carriers are better than others: For every 1,000 passengers, American mishandles more than four times as many bags as Virgin America.
