If your bag is delayed on your return home, airlines may consider that your losses were less as you had clothes and other essentials available to you. Some airlines have a daily rate which they will pay per day your bag is delayed”.
I would like to know if BA has a daily rate for delayed baggage (as above). If so how much?
I am currently waiting for my bags which will not be received for a minimum of 10 days. Apart from lots of telephone calls I have no plans to claim any "essential items" as I am home.
Thanks for any advice.
I think the advice you got on the TA forum, basically telling you that you will get nothing, will be the same as the advice you get here.
