I know this is not a visa question but I will still ask.

This question is to the recent travelers only. Has anyone has any lost luggage issues? Where did you fly from? Please no naming of airlines, that I think would not be proper in this group.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Travelers shared their experiences with lost luggage while traveling to Thailand. One traveler reported their bag was lost by Philippine Airlines and had not been returned. Another mentioned arriving in Bangkok from England without their luggage, which was later delivered efficiently after being handled by Thai Airways. A third traveler experienced luggage being left behind in Sydney and confirmed it took three days to arrive. The conversation emphasizes common issues with baggage during travel and how they were managed.

Arrived in Bangkok last week from England...no luggage on the carousel...checked with the airline...most apologetic...apparently didn't get put on the plane...along with around 30 other people...said luggage would arrive next day and they would deliver to my address...which they duly did....so minor inconvenience...but dealt with efficiently....Thai airways

You can name airlines in the group.. It's a safe space.

Yes just back from Thailand and Phillipine Airlines lost our bag somewhere between Sydney and Manilla and have ghosted us.

That seems about right.

We regret to hear of your disappointment, Philip. 😞 We have already called the attention of your handling officer regarding this and we assure you that we will request for another follow-up on your behalf. Again, we're truly sorry for this, Philip.

That’s the response I got. FB messenger. I have about 20 more messages. All saying “we’re truly sorry “. Worst airline ever.
