If they are just destroyed so be it, big insurance claim coming up!
With luck your 2nd bag will show up soon -
Rule of thumb with Lost Luggage is that
you must report the loss to your Travel Insurance Co. within 7 days -
So if you have not yet then I suggest you speak to them PDQ - You have your PIR ref to quote.
Also if you have an amount of Cover added on for ''all risks,
aka away from the home'' on your
Home Contents Policy then you are also covered for lost luggage on there.
The airline will pay (you may have to lean on them) your unrecoverable losses such as the Taxi and the Policy Excess and any out of pocket expenses.
If you paid for your air ticket on a Credit Card you also may have some clout for a Section 75 charge back claim.
