2010 Baggage Report
Continuing the fall in mishandled bags
For the second consecutive year, the number of mishandled bags fell worldwide, according to SITA's 2010 Baggage Report. In 2009, airlines reported just over 25 million mishandled bags globally - down almost a quarter from 2008, and down 40% from 2007. That represents year on year savings to the industry of US$ 460 million.
