Good News About the Airlines!

One of the biggest worries among air travelers is losing their luggage. If you are hesitant to travel because of this, fear no more! According to USA Today, last year the airlines mishandled fewer bags despite an increase in the number of people flying. The airlines have new, effective technology that helps them trace and locate bags. Baggage transfers have traditionally been a place where many bags are lost so SITA (Societe Internationale de Aeronautiques) has focused on this and over the past six years has drastically improved. The rate of mishandled bags per 1,000 passengers has fallen 53.2% in that time, saving the industry 2.1 billion dollars since 2007. Call us to check on availability and best prices for you.
