When we go to the airport, we realize that we are taking one of the best ways of traveling possible. After all, we don’t have to worry about traffic and we don’t have to worry about the travel, we just need to worry about getting there on time.
Then again, there are certain hazards associated with traveling by plane that we need to worry about. Aside from the fact that the pilot is responsible for getting us there, we also need to worry about our luggage.
For the most part, we simply pick up our luggage at the bag claim after the flight is over but for one traveler, Emilie Hofferber, the trip didn’t go quite so well. After flying recently, she posted some pictures on Twitter that are causing quite a stir.
She shared a picture of the suitcase after she picked it up from the baggage claim. It looked as if there were two wheels missing and the entire thing was absolutely shredded.
She said that she made an attempt to contact the airline but as of yet, they haven’t replied to any of her calls. An airline representative apparently did tell her that it could take up to two weeks for a reimbursement check to arrive by mail.
“In 2022 we’re mailing checks because that’s the most effective way to transfer funds…,” she said.

10-14 days to receive a reimbursement check by mail? in 2022 we’re mailing checks because that’s the most effective way to transfer funds…

She said that her first bag came out right away but her second bag took some time. She then said: “I went in the office and they looked it up and said ‘it’s here just wait’ and then an hour passed, and I went back and they were like OHHHH yeah your bag is a lil damaged.”

As you can imagine, the tweet is going viral with plenty of people talking about their own issues with luggage and yet others offering their condolences for the luggage that was lost.
