I Bought "Lost" Luggage *how it really works + is it stolen?*

[@LolaFulana305]

My ex-inlaws work for a major airline, and they were always “finding” things from people's luggage such as cameras, PlayStations, and Diamond rings worth $20k. My advice is if it's valuable keep it by your side at all times. I will never trust an airline.

Not true. My fiancé is a TSA officer and they were told the day the pick up a penny that’s been left by passengers is their last day on the job. They make really good money and they have good benefits, so it’s unlikely they want to risk losing their jobs over some people’s craps.

I was once in a short flight where most passengers did not carry any luggage but I did. And when I got to baggage claim, I saw this girl taking off with my Samsonite suitcase. I confronted her, and she told me she had taken my stuff because my suitcase looked exactly like hers. BUT, she didn’t go back to baggage claim. She just left. I think she was a professional thief.

Flying home from a friend’s wedding, my bag was “lost” in St Luis during a change over. I say “lost” because after a week my bag did make it back to me- with all of my belongings picked through and many pieces of my jewelry missing. I ALWAYS pack valuable (read “I don’t want to loose it) items with me in my carry on, but I had been in a rush and super tired after the wedding that I forgot that one time. Never again. They stole the jewelry set she gave me for being her maid of honor, my Pandora bracelet, and a ton of my other costume jewelry 😭 The airline said it must have “fallen out in transit.” Yes, it fell out of the gift box, out of the bag INSIDE my suitcase THEN fallen out of my completely zipped suitcase. No reimbursement since my Bag was technically returned. I was 💯 SOL. I’m still mad when I think about it 😤 Fell out indeed. Super fun video though! I never knew a place like this existed for truly lost luggage! So cool! 😄

[@colleenschwab]

When packing items like that people say to take a pic of your luggage with the items inside it, so you can use it later to either sue or for insurance. So you can say to them well I keep a photo record of what I pack and you lost it, so either pay me their value worth or I'll sue you for more.

I know it's 3 months old, but when I was flying in 2018, my luggage was lost when we returned. We reported it gone and everything and waited for 2 weeks. No response, I called, nothing they could tell us. So me and my mum drive down to the airport and someone checked a room out with us where there are all found luggage and bags. My luggage has been for the 2 weeks. It was found 1 day after we went home, but we weren't called at all and when I called initially, it was also already there. It had a tag that marked when it arrived and my luggage tag was still on it with ALL of my information. Luckily everything was in there!

There are no set prices, people can just pay what they can afford even if it's 0.

I used to work at a museum, and of course we had a lost and found. We would keep items tagged for 1 month for visitors to come back and claim them and then after that the museum would sell any items they could and that money would go back to the museum and everything else was donated or actually used in some of the more creative exhibits. The vast majority of items lost were cameras and phones and glasses. I would say about 40% of people who lost something actually came back for it, but the others either assumed it was stolen or were from out of town and just let it go or filed their insurance claims.

Hi Hope! As someone who works for my city's police department and arranges abandoned property auctions (no, seriously, I'm that lady), I can tell you that a large number of the items from these auctions come from the inside of cars that were impounded, processed, and never claimed from the police impound lot. After 60 days, this stuff becomes the property of the police department and we hold an auction once or twice per year to sell off all of these things, even the cars they came in (if the car is worth more than $750, otherwise it goes to the junkyard). We get some of the craziest stuff that's never picked up, including weapons and laptops. Just thought you might like to know! Great video!

In the late '90's, my brother and soon to be sister- in-law traveled to Ireland. Their luggage didn't arrive with them, but they were assured it would be delivered to them expeditiously. They were gone for 2 weeks. The airline did not contact them EVER AGAIN, and they received no useful information when they contacted the airline themselves. When they arrived back home, there on their front porch (delivered the day after being lost) was their luggage. One has to wonder what the airline was thinking since they certainly had my brother and sister-in-law's itinerary, and why they had no information as to what had happened to the luggage whenever my brother reached out for an update. It is certainly amazing no one had stolen the suitcases before their return. One lesson learned was to make sure you have at LEAST one change of clothing and mini-sizes (due to flight restrictions) of your toiletries in your carry-on.

Coming from someone that worked in baggage for many years for a major airline. This particular major airline, has cameras everywhere with crazy zooming capabilities, also they actually pay us pretty well and would be absolutely asinine to take $20 and lose your job. Because that is automatic termination no questions ask, just leave. We would "rifle" through your bag only if you do not have any information printed somewhere on it. Then we have to catalog what is inside and enter it into our system to wait for a claim to come through matching those items. The baggage office will hold on to you bags for 5 days max, except for one major hub I won't mention. They may hold it a little longer. All bags not claimed go to Alabama, where they will hold it for 90 additional days, while we search for the owner or wait for the owner to make a claim that matches our cataloged file. If not wellllll....you all now know what happens next. Most thefts are not from the actual employees of the airlines. It's usually from the employees of the airport itself, subcontractors, TSA 🤷🏾‍♀️ sorry to say it, or the cleaners. We do allllll we can to reunite you with your baggage, we have an entire office of about 300 people where their only job is to reunite people with their bags.

Southwest just kept my grandpa's laptop "by mistake" and 2 weeks later they found it. They are shipping it to him but making him pay for it 😒

[@hollyberry9549]

I can't believe they only give you 3 days! What if you travel for work and were out of town again? Or just not in a place where you could go pick it up from the baggage office? You'd think they'd ship it to you if they have your info. 🤔

My daughter and son-in-law went on a ski trip out west a couple of years ago. He had a very nice brand new set of hard side luggage and some really nice sweaters, pants, shoes, etc. Several were gifts and most were brand new for the trip. One piece was “lost”. The luggage tracker from this particular airline said the bag arrived in ATL with everything else, but it never showed up on the carousel. They went through all the standard processes at the airport and waited for them to call when it finally popped up. It didn’t. The airline backtracked and said it had not made it to the destination even though the tracker said all of his bags arrived on time. It took about a year and a lot of drama for my SIL to get the airline to come even close to reimbursing him. They had to come up with all kinds of documentation and craziness. I have wondered if it ended up in the unclaimed store. More than likely, though, it just went home with an employee who saw a really nice brand new suitcase with some brand new designer clothes that still had tags.

This was a wild experiment!! “Did you find it?… Well yeah, it came in on the flight with you” I would feel so embarrassed!!

[@sheenatalks8529]

I didn't understand that part... So did they get the backpack back or not?

[@EmiliaLanders]

I died at that part

[@eves7621]

“What’s something that is not illegal but feels illegal"😂 Omg I love her❤️

[@Eeeeeeeeej]

I’m pretty sure intentionally leaving something at tsa / security IS illegal… because then it becomes a security threat and they might have to call the bomb squad or something. I feel like she might at least face a fine for doing that.

[@sunnyjean250]

Omg. That bag of “dirt” in the vase was very possibly someone’s ashes. Why else would it be in there in a bag like that?

[@mary11567]

Wow you’re the real MVP. South west airlines lost just 1 of my shoes and it was SO frustrating

[@Megan_Truly]

I'm confused how this could happen, lol.

[@olivia3382]

This is one of the best, most interesting videos ever! I was on the edge of my seat. It was like true crime for clothing addicts🤣 I was so worried you were going to get in trouble, can’t wait for part two!

[@rozisedclooooooosed1951]

[@cmantic913]

Dye the wedding dress to make it an evening dress for an event!! And it would make a good video

[@justinenorombaba763]

The commitment to find out the legitimacy of this experiment is REAL lolllll

[@Nancezeroni]

I’m not interested in anything this channel is about, but I always end up so invested in watching all of these videos from this woman 🤣 I felt bad always watching and never subscribing so I finally did.

[@elizabethcasillas6615]

The wedding dress is stunning! Totally fits like a glove too. 💕

[@madypatsey894]

Me: “Oh snap! Hope has a new video out!” My boyfriend: “Let me know if Tyler does a sock review” 💗

[@dagmarbeeke6163]

Omg that colourful bag is so cool!!!

[@user-gz7ix3uy7b]

Now that's something new to me, my local airlines don't sell unattended baggages 😅

[@jenniferbobennifer6164]

it's the only place in the country that does

[@marylhere]

I usually ship my clothes to my destination. It’s cheaper than the baggage fees. I travel with a handicapped individual and not having to deal with anything more than a small carry on is great. I go thrifting for summer clothes when in warmer climate areas.

[@hopescope]

Wow that is brilliant

[@marylhere]

@@hopescope I’ve also learned that the kitchen will cut up a steak before serving. Warm meals are a rarity.

[@jeanettehamilton7588]

Where’s part 2? I can’t done it anywhere and I need to know what happened! lol I just found your channel today and have been obsessed already!!

[@readerunite]

I loved the "suddenly a True Crime channel, but only when it has to do with clothing."

[@ltrickett1216]

“because it’s so sad, and that’s what attracts me to this store” 🤣👏🏼

[@shotaaizawa655]

Someone on Facebook someone in my family knows makes cosplays, they spend hundreds of dollars on fabric, and thread, and other materials. Not to mention the hours of work they do. But he was flying somewhere from a convention and his sucase, with one full cosplay and half of two others, was stolen. It's been more than a year and he made a new version of the one that was lost.

[@countchocula5379]

The wedding dress is perfect for a CHEESECAKE FACTORY date! 😂

[@stephclaire3400]

You’re so lucky they didn’t accuse you of leaving bags with bombs 😂

[@hajaarsmith5930]

Very true

[@marytyra1030]

I once had a bag lost for 2 weeks...it finally came back to me, witg everything still in it. But get this.. my bag went to like five states and two countries...that bag had quite a vacation!

[@laurenkanne3375]

Wow !!! That’s horrible “ sister” airlines. But how fun to put a theory to the test!🤗🤣

[@hanC21317]

Girl, your editing though. I mean it’s SO GOOD! I love going back a few years and watching Baby Hope videos, it’s crazy how far you’ve come with your channel. You are extremely talented. Also hilarious and gorgeous, so there’s that. #hopeisgoals

[@leithsapitan1428]

I can't get over how generous you are. You have a special place in heaven waiting for you. I hope to see you there.

[@sierrahadley4744]

Haha “ that makes me uncomfy, like who did this stuff belong to?”🤣

[@fiveandfour]

…and in a strange twist of fate, it turned out that Hope purchased a suitcase filled with new with tags clothes from someone who was also performing an experiment to see if her bag would be returned 😂 But seriously, this was really fascinating.

[@sharonh4944]

She bought those individually

[@OnceUponATimeWithHolly]

Hello, love your videos. My uncle use to be a police chief. Clothing from the police is generally items confiscated from drug dealers or others whose personal property is confiscated because they bought the items with ill gotten gains

[@peytonlbeyer]

Love how you had the thought to lose bags intentionally 😂 I could NEVER!

[@lucyosborn7551]

Dude what if your just walking around with that stuff and someone just goes “ hey that looks exactly like something I lost one time huh “

[@gabrielleduplessis7388]

I love the editing of this video. Right when we get too excited, we have to reminded of the travesty that comes with the lost luggage store.

[@SM-ec5if]

I'm convinced that the US military sells people's things they don't feel like shipping overseas. My SIL lost an entire kitchen worth of things. My husband lost a laptop and box of clothing. I have heard from several other military families that they lose room fulls of things. The US military wouldn't be included in the airlines most likely to lose your luggage 😆

[@HazelJuanitaMillanHoffman]

Most likely the moving companies they use

[@SM-ec5if]

@@HazelJuanitaMillanHoffman that's very likely.

[@zuzanafertalova3547]

Hi Hope, I just want to tell you that this is probably the most creative and interesting video you've uploaded so far :)

[@delishme2]

I have a friend in Scotland who helps fund weddings for people who have a terminal illness. He lost his wife to Cancer but not before giving her the wedding of her dreams. Might be nice to find something similar for the wedding dress ?? 😊🙏

[@zkdenner]

“She’s a mammoth of course “ I screamed hahahahaH😂

[@mattimeikalainen3906]

Omg this is not okay.. I work at TSA and unattended baggages are a high risk. You should not treat this as a joke. 🥺 I really do not appreciate this experiment of yours. In most of the cases we are required to even call the police because it is treated as a threat. Please do not do this again and waste so many resources for the sake of a video..

[@coffeetime777]

I rode a greyhound bus across country. When I got to the Mesa, AZ terminal my luggage was supposedly lost. It had all my clothes, a bush of my personal things and pictures of my kids. I was so crushed that they didn't have my bag. Never happened before or after. My gut said they lied and stole it. I pray for her big time.

[@Naomi-Paige]

I thoroughly enjoyed this lost luggage series 😂 I wonder if they have something similar like this in Australia

[@emilypeterson1761]

When you click the KZbin link to Hopes video not knowing what it’s about. Literally love these vids
