No Suitcase in the Cargo Hold: When a Return Flight Arrives Without Luggage

Answer

Why do airlines sometimes fly to Mallorca without all the checked bags?

Sometimes luggage is left behind because of a technical problem in the cargo hold or a loading issue at the airport. In that case, the aircraft can still operate, but the bags may have to travel on a later flight. For passengers, the problem is not only the delay itself but the lack of clear information on arrival.
