Summary
Luggage handling at airports is not always a sure science. Bags can be dropped or left behind, and they are quite frequently.

Airlines currently lose approximately seven bags per 1000.

• Southwest Airlines, for example, flies over 104 million passengers a year.

• That would conservatively equal approximately 728,000 mishandled bags a year,
costing $65.5 million.

• If only three bags were lost per 1000, airlines would save almost $40 million.
