The airlines in the UK that are most likely to lose your luggage have been revealed in a recent study.
The study was conducted by Ink Digital, a digital marketing agency whose data was collected using Google Keyword Planner, specifically focusing on searches related to lost, delayed, or missing baggage for major airlines operating in the UK, Forbes reports.
British Airways tops the ranking with a staggering 6,938 monthly searches related to mishandled luggage which is about five times more than KLM which came in second in the list with 1,372 monthly searches.
Michael Ryan, Owner and CRO of Ink Digital, said: “Lost luggage remains one of the biggest concerns for air travelers, especially as international travel rebounds post-pandemic.
“British Airways, KLM, and EasyJet topping the list suggests that even well-established airlines face ongoing challenges in baggage handling.
“The issue often arises due to tight layovers, staffing shortages, and mishandling during transfers.
“Passengers can reduce their risk by using carry-on luggage where possible, investing in smart trackers like AirTags, and ensuring they have proper travel insurance to cover any unexpected losses.”
Emirates, Lufthansa, and easyJet follow the top two with average searches of 1,048, 987, and 1,208, respectively.
Ryanair, Turkish Airlines, and Qatar Airways also make the top ten, along with American Airlines which is the only US carrier to make the top ten, with 557 searches.
