audbod,

strange, they'd normally forward your bag on to your accommodation in that case. I had the same problem in May when my case never made the flight on the way home. It was delivered to my front door 48 hours later.

Well i thought so too , but they insisted he had to collect it personally, so he spent a full day travelling to barcalona, had to wait around for a few hours until the located it (yet again) and travel back, all on public transport.

I think it may depend on whether you are on a package holiday or a diy job.

The same thing happened to us 3 years ago in the Algarve but because we were on a diy holiday we had to do all the chasing up ourselves and eventually go and pick up our case from the airport - it had been all over the place despite being very well labled!

I also though that you always had missing luggage delivered to your accommodation, whether at home or abroad. Presumably it is the airline's duty.

Returning from Copenhagen in May, my suitcase did not arrive in Heathrow. It had been left in Copenhagen and followed on the next flight. BA then sent it down by courier to Cornwall.

I don't know why we had to go and pick ours up - obviously depends on the airline - we were with my travel lite (now just My travel.)
