Hmm, a bit painful for me. The last time I flew from Rome (Ciampino)
that's exactly what happened to my luggage. I could see it lying on the
tarmac as the plane taxied away from the stand. When we got to Gatwick
we were told it would be "a few days", it turned out to be three weeks
before we saw it again, battered, opened with a note saying it had been
examined by the Surete.

Yes that's right, not the Carabinieri, Surete. So where it had been
heaven only knows.
