Adventures in . . . baggage, part II

What a surprise, no luggage today. If you click on the link above (in the title) then you should know that BA stands for British Airways and BAA was originally British Aiports Authority but now they own or manage airports all over the world so it is just BAA.

Anyway, I called BA and they had no trace on it that was up to date. . . they weren't sure it even left Amsterdam though they did have three flight numbers that showed it should land in Reno today at 10:15 a.m. They also confirmed that there was enough time for it to clear customs in Chicago if it made it there. The nice agent at BA also asked if I heard what happened in Heathrow today. . . seems the baggage system broke down . . . sure, my bag is there. . . it must weigh to much for the system. The poor folks working in baggage for BA at Heathrow, they just can't get a break.

American was ok today as well. They checked the list of bags that were in Reno and could tell me that my name was not on any of them (of course, I never could get in touch with anyone at the Reno airport, it is apparently not allowed).

So, here I go again. Leaving town for another week without my real luggage. Anyway, believe it or not, I am not really upset about it. . . It is what it is. . .but of course I hope I get it back.
