It was battered and out of charge so I didn't think it was a risk, but the sim card was used to make a £190 phone call to the Philippines whilst I was on the flight blissfully unaware! It seems that checked in luggage is neither covered by insurance nor by the airline....and of course the mobile phone provider also won't compensate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960677.post-89945145336041507152008-04-22T20:20:00.000-07:002008-04-22T20:20:00.000-07:00When we arrived to Paris from US, we found out our...When we arrived to Paris from US, we found out our luggage was sent back to US.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960677.post-20448392905359793082007-08-08T09:37:00.000-07:002007-08-08T09:37:00.000-07:00I agree with you, specifically on (2) and (3).

Air France just started their direct flights from Seattle - Paris, which is good news.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960677.post-44909174607196562282007-08-02T21:02:00.000-07:002007-08-02T21:02:00.000-07:00That really sucks, but is very common.
