Track down lost luggage with the right report filed fast
Standing at an empty carousel, it said not to leave the airport without filing a property irregularity report.
A sketch of what you'll get back.
Your prompt

ChatGPT and Claude open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
My checked bag didn't arrive. Flight: [AIRLINE AND FLIGHT, e.g. flight 214, landed 3pm]. I'm [YOUR SITUATION, e.g. still at baggage claim]. The bag: [BAG DESCRIPTION, e.g. black hard case, pink ribbon]. Inside: [IMPORTANT CONTENTS, e.g. medication, laptop charger]. Give me, in order: 1) what to do before I leave the airport, including the report to file and what to ask for, 2) the details and photos to have ready, 3) what I can usually buy now and claim back, and which receipts to keep, 4) the usual deadlines for delayed, damaged or lost bags, and 5) a short, polite follow-up email I can send if I hear nothing in 2 days. Tell me which rules depend on the airline or route so I can check them.
When your bag doesn't show up, get a calm checklist for the airport desk, what to photograph, what you can claim and a follow-up message if the airline goes quiet.
