Do you get your luggage between connecting flights?
When you purchase a connecting flight, checked baggage is usually forwarded to your final destination, and will change planes when you do. The agent at check-in will usually ask if you want your luggage checked through to your last stop.
How do I know where my luggage is?
Visit your airline’s website and go to the “Tracked Baggage” page. Sign into your account on your airline’s website, and go to the “Baggage” section of the website. Then, click on “Track Checked Baggage.”
What should I separate at TSA?
Unless you have TSA PreCheck, you will have to remove various items, such as liquids and electronics, from your luggage and place them in separate bins before going through security. You will also have to remove your shoes, items from pockets, jewelry, and large jackets.
What happens to checked bags when you miss connection?
What happens to your luggage if you miss your flight? In the event that you missed a connection, or got held up in security and your checked luggage has gone ahead without you, immediately find an airline representative. The airline may be able to track your bags and hold them for you until your arrival.
What happens if my luggage doesn’t make my connecting flight?
However, if you are sure your bag hasn’t arrived, the first thing to do is to file a passenger irregularity report with the airline’s representatives in the baggage claim area. If your itinerary involved multiple airlines, then report to the airline that operated the last flight.
What happens if I don’t pick up my bag from baggage claim?
The airline has to pay for storing unclaimed baggage at the airport, so it’s in their best interest to deliver it to its rightful owner as soon as possible. They usually ask the passenger to come back to the airport and pick it up or deliver it via courier services, such as FedEx or UPS.
