Stealing....one thing...getting bags another.....lol



Stealing is one thing.... Heathrow has often been called 'Thiefrow' for many factual reasons/evidence-based, over the years....

My issue has always been the non-successful baggage transfer from a Big Airline at Heathrow. Most 'pukka' airlines have Biz and 'F' luggage delivered first...not with the Big Airline. Never has and probably never will. Why is that?

4 out of 5 hold bags in last 3 months - 5 'having to have hold bags' (I usually try to not have hold bags). LHR-SIN....bag lost for 4 days. (3hr transfer time). BRU-LHR-GLA (4hrs transfer time) and I go on....not time to share more....a wholly awful situation.

Luckily, I have nothing more to steal than mostly laundry ....anything valuable goes in carry-on!

Big Airline must have a whole load of claims for 'Fox Furs' and Ipads...whatever...has anyone got accurate stats to share? My experience may just be bad luck over years???
