This I dont get. They pull your file and check your ID, then print the baggage tag and attach it to your file - or have YOU print it. How can they mistag? The process seems sufficiently straight forward that, short of sending you to the wrong direction as well, your baggage should always have the right tag?
- crazygringo 3y agoYou've never seen two people's sets of baggage right next to each other at the check-in counter, and the attendant puts the tag on the wrong one? Check-in counters are busy places where printers break and attendants switch between desks and luggage gets put somewhere for a minute and attendants are multitasking because in the middle of checking you in, there's an urgent situation with another passenger, and now the other printer broke too -- "well I assume this tag was meant for this bag, I've gotta keep the line moving".
