TGIF! We have our Saturdays back! We also have only three (3) games remaining in the season. I’m sure they won’t be at all disappointing.
Survival – Personal Edition
I just remembered that last month I did an abbreviated post about lost luggage due to being under the weather. Well, today I’m going to finish that post.
- If your luggage is deemed lost by airlines, you’re eligible for some compensation. For domestic flights, you can receive up to $3,800. For international flights $1,700. You, of course, have to justify the compensation, and even if you’re right it will take months before you see anything in your bank account. Act accordingly, and do not fill your checked luggage with valuables. Really, don’t check luggage to begin with, that’s amateur hour.
- Make your luggage stand out. Use a brightly colored ribbon or strap and wrap it around the handle or the luggage itself. If you really want to stand out, use various colors of duct tape to write a note on the sides of the luggage.
- Position yourself so that you can see the luggage as it enters the carousel, even if you can’t get to the luggage. That way you’ll be able to readily identify your luggage and see if anyone mistakenly grabs it before you have a chance.
- Take two cards, and write your name and phone number on them. Place one inside the luggage, and the other in the card holder. If someone that is honest grabs your luggage, they’ll be able to contact you and rectify the situation. Also, never put your home address on luggage tags. That only lets everyone know that you’re not there.
- Dress for the worst. You may need the clothes on your and in your carry-on to last for a few days, so be prepared for that situation. If it’s a business trip, ask yourself if you’re dressed for business when boarding the plane, and if not, fix it. Also, no PJs or sweats even if you’re on vacation. Have some self-respect.
- Always carry any medications and hygiene items in your carry-on. These are essential and there’s no reason to risk their availability to the airlines.
Thus concludes the luggage advice. Also, pick a seat that’s nowhere near the door plug on your next Boeing flight. I recommend first class.
