Today, I arrived home after taking one airplane from A to B. My luggage never made it on the plane with me, and now the airline is looking for it. One plane and still lost my suitcase. FML

Today, after 10 years of frequent international air travel, I got my seat upgraded for the very first time. Also, for the very first time in 10 years, the airline lost my luggage. FML

Today, I was on a flight home. I wasn't going to arrive until midnight, so I was offered an earlier flight that got back at ten. I got to baggage claims and it turned out they lost my bag. I sat there for 2 hours. The people on my original flight left for home before I did. FML

Today, I arrived at the airport only to find my suitcase was lost and my 3 weeks worth of clothes and supplies gone. All I had left was my wallet and carry ons. Upon leaving the airport I was mugged. FML

Today, I was heading out for my flight to Australia. I'd put a padlock on my luggage to keep my wallet and passport safe, only to realize way too late that I'd left the key at home. I couldn't get at my passport and ended up missing my flight and my whole vacation along with it. FML

Today, I was sitting in the airport, watching the baggage handlers load the plane I was about to get on. They were being really rough with it, one bag came open and all the clothes spilled out onto the tarmac. The clothes looked familiar. They were mine. FML

Today, I had to call the Australian Passport office to track my passport. Turns out they lost it in the mail. A week ago, I got my dream job as a flight attendant. Without a passport they won't accept me. I lost my dream job before I even started it. FML

I went to France 2 years ago and they did the same thing to me. Only my cousin's wedding (the reason why I went to France) was the next day, so we had to buy new clothes that they never paid us back for, and my mother, being from the land of the McDouble, didn't fit into any of the clothes. It was terrible. Air France is stupid. They're the only ones that do it. They also caused us a 14 hour layover at the stupid French airport because they couldn't schedule our flight. so don't fret. stupidstupid stupid.

You have your own airline? Wow, I'd say your life is far from f--ked. Since you said, "my airline," why not just fire the staff and hire new people?

I'm almost surprised that out of all the craploads of traveling I've done, I still haven't had any luggage lost, since most people I know have

reading this and the comments make me feel better... the only time i've ever had luggage seriously lost was by air france, flying from new york to italy via france. they lost my luggage, both my parents' luggage and my dad's friend's luggage too. thank god i had brought my toiletries in my carryon (this was before the days of 9/11 bombs-in-your-toothpaste madness) so we were able to shower and brush our teeth. we had to wash our clothes every day for four days.

Today, I was trying to give a motivational speech to my team at work, because morale has been low. Halfway through, I blanked and ended up just saying gibberish and stuff like, "We’ll just fake it until we… you know… whatever happens. You know?" Not exactly inspiring. FML
