Was it insured?

That question does not address my point: the dinner was that night and had to rent some ill-fitting rag because some brain-dead thief working(?) as a baggage handler was a thief.

By the way, was the question you asked simply to make sure I suffered no financial loss? I care not that much about the cost. . .what I DO care about was the inconvenience and the fact the airline simply didn't care.

I never trust screeners of any type and especially the Neanderthals that throws bags around like in some old Samsonite commercial.
