Two Large Bags - No Passenger

Would it dismay or concern pax and air crew to know that in this time of heightened security alerts, baggage flew Newark to Gatwick on Friday night unaccompanied by the passenger? This is a bags loaded, passenger no-show situation. I can and will provide more information on this.

I thought that there are security regulations in place to always offload unaccompanied bags? I’ve certainly seen this procedure on UK TV programmes, where the flight is delayed while this happens.

I’m not at all happy that this should happen (while stupidity like confiscating passengers’ paperbacks is going on) and I’m prepared to follow through with a complaint (and proof) to whoever should know about this.
