When you put it that way, it doesn’t square with lived experience. Are the 25M lost or just misrouted? Nearly everyone I know who flies has had a bag misrouted

1-in-172 seems surprisingly low to me.
- rtkwe 7y agoBag handling errors aren't going to be randomly distributed but heavily effected by airport and airline quality so it makes sense that the actual stats don't match any one person's anecdotal stats. If you live or fly out of an airport with a bad baggage system most people you know are probably using that same airport when they fly.
- lotu 7y agoI'm pretty sure they mean misrouted not lost. Lost makes a better headline.
