Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been making travel videos for over 15 years of popular and not so popular tourist destinations

Nowadays most airlines have a function for this in the app, but I'm going to give you a little piece of advice and that is don't use the app.

Reasonable expenses are around $50 a day, but legally they're not allowed to set a limit.

If your bag disappears on a domestic flight, according to the Department of Transportation, you are eligible to be reimbursed for up to $3,800.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take a picture of your suitcase before checking it in.
Go to an actual person at the claims counter instead of using the app.
Save all receipts for necessary purchases.
Keep essential items in your carry-on bags.
