Four tips to make sure your suitcase doesn't go missing after your holiday flight - New York Post

Afraid of losing your luggage?

Here’s how to make sure it’s in the bag.

An increase in holiday travel — a record of more than 2.9 million ticket holders went through security at the nation’s airports Sunday, post-Thanksgiving — means that luggage is bound to get lost. (And don’t even get us started on dreaded layovers.)

But there are a few ways you can mitigate baggage stress with a few tips, You Travel reported. 

Direct flights

Flying direct may be pricier, but you’ll avoid a layover.

Layovers add an extra stop for you as well as your luggage — offering more of an opportunity for it to get lost.

Suitcase itinerary 

Should your luggage have found itself in Paris and you’re in Amsterdam with the plan to jetset around Europe, putting an itinerary in your luggage will help airline staff get it back to you in the right place at the right time.

A paper copy of the itinerary will make the relocation process much zippier, according to experts. 

GPS

A GPS tracker — like Airtags or Tile Mates — can help you keep track of your luggage, no matter where in the world it may have wound up. 

Trackers, which you simply put in your suitcase, will let you look for your luggage on your smartphone or tablet while on the go.

The trick seems to work: Last year, a holiday traveler tracked down her own lost bag that way — only to discover her luggage was at a random apartment complex, along with other discarded luggage.

Baggage photos

Taking a picture of your bag before you travel is a good idea because you can send it to airline staff and make their job identifying your luggage easier, the Sun reported.

Of course, those wanting to avoid losing their bag can simply fly with a carry-on.

One woman said she creates even more space in her bag by taking the stuffing out of her neck pillow and filling it with clothes instead.
