British Airways is officially Europe's worst performing major airline,
with passengers more likely to be delayed or lose their bags with BA
than any other company according to a new report.
The figures pile on the misery for BA after it was fined a record
£270million for price-fixing yesterday.
New figures from the Association of European Airlines (AEA) shows more
travellers than ever are losing their bags, with up to 10 passengers
on every flight arriving at their holiday destination without their
luggage.
BA alone, is forecast to lose a record 1.3 million bags this year.
And holidaymakers can expect more misery, with the baggage crisis at
Heathrow expected to exacerbate the problem further during the summer
holiday period.
It's emerged on Tuesday travellers were advised not to check in their
bags and to carry them as hand-luggage instead.

Advised by whom? Passengers leaving from a UK airport are only
allowed one carry-on bag, so the above advice is rather limiting.

Just the normal uncoordinated shambles pretending to be a security policy...
