Why should you take a photo of your luggage before checking in when flying?

Imagine you're standing in front of the empty conveyor belt at check-in. Your suitcase is obviously not from the same flight. In moments like these, every minute counts. Telling an airport employee that your suitcase is "gray with a black zipper" isn't quite accurate   .  With a photo, the employees can immediately visualize what they're looking for. The result: a   significantly higher  chance of finding your bag quickly.

Damaged luggage? Clear proof

Scratched suitcase, broken handle, cracked shell... Traveling isn't exactly gentle on our valuables. Without proof of the condition of your luggage, it will be difficult to convince an airline of its responsibility. With the most recent photos, you can view the   following photos and instructions after check-in. This is handy for your compensation claim!

Missing items: Your photos as evidence

If the problem isn't with the suitcase itself, it's with the contents. If your new dress or makeup bag is missing upon arrival, your photos can serve as references and help you identify exactly what's missing. So, if you're not sure what you're doing, freeze your must-haves.

Black, red, or rolling suitcases—dozens of them can be found on airport conveyor belts. What do you do if another traveler accidentally takes your suitcase? A photo on hand allows for immediate verification. So you can see if it's still   in the unannounced version , and you can see the light on the screen, but you don't have to worry about that if the airport checks the surveillance footage.

A real plus for your travel insurance

How do I know what to do with them? Great idea! If the shells had already been on the table, they would have been the same. In case of loss or theft, your photos serve as proof for the list of insured items. And I've described your photos in detail, which will help process your claim faster.

Bonus tip: Photograph the exterior and interior

Please note that the packaged goods must be packaged, but if you have a moment, you must leave the relevant documentation, and these must be kept and stored. Then, take photos of the exterior from various angles,   including the luggage tag  . Take a photo inside the suitcase—so you can see the photos you've identified. We'll be there shortly.
