Charlotte Douglas Airport Tops Most Lost Luggage List
A new survey finds that Charlotte Douglas Airport tops the most lost luggage list. This is according to a study done by Price4Limo. This summer it felt like we kept hearing about travelers dealing with lost luggage. Nobody wants to have to deal with getting to their destination without their bags.
There’s a better chance of that happening with certain airlines and airports. Charlotte is on the list. Charlotte Douglas Airport is not the worst but in the top 10. To Charlotte Douglas’ defense, we’ve become a super busy airport. There are lots of flight connections at the airport so that gives us more chances to lose a bag. Or 5,000 haha.
