Securely attach airport tag to luggage, experts advise

Travelers are advised to ensure their airport luggage tag is securely attached to their suitcase to prevent lost luggage. This is crucial for the bag's journey. Luggage experts at GMT Zero emphasize the importance of the airport-issued tag, which contains a barcode scanned throughout the baggage handling process. Damage or loss of this tag can lead to delays or misdirection. Passengers should also remove old tags and double-check the new tag's details. Airlines may reroute luggage for safety or operational reasons, and unclaimed bags may incur storage fees.
