Damaged luggage compensation

Damaged suitcase or contents after a flight? Check repair, replacement and baggage evidence. Baggage pages focus on the Montreal Convention evidence that airlines normally ask for: PIR, bag tag, value evidence, receipts and proof of delay or damage.

What it could be worth

Claims can cover repair, replacement or loss in value where damage is proven.

When this can qualify

Damage should be reported quickly, ideally before leaving the airport or within the airline's damage notice window.

Evidence to gather

Photographs, baggage tag, PIR or damage report, repair estimate, replacement price and purchase evidence all help.

Common mistake

Normal wear-and-tear refusals can be challenged where the damage is specific, recent and supported by evidence.

How MeClaims handles it

  • Checks the route, rule, contract or complaint path that applies.
  • Turns scattered evidence into a structured claim record.
