British Airways Lost My Luggage & Cancelled My Flight // Travel Nightmare // Story Time

#britishairways #lostluggage #cancelledflight
Open for timestamps!
I have rarely been this excited for a trip, I was so happy to share some of my favourite places that I discovered to my husband and have this fun joyful experience together and tick some things off my bucket list, like attending a University of Alabama Football Game in Bryant Denny, singing along more country artists in my favourite city in the USA: Nashville and going to the best beach in the world: Destin.
However, British Airways had made it rather difficult to enjoy my trip to the fullest, fist of all the horrendous customer service at the gate when your international long haul gets cancelled, to losing your luggage... Finding it, failing to deliver it, losing it again, more time spend on phone calls, filling out claims... And a lot of misinformation throughout.
This video was recorded in October (30-10-2023). Stay tuned for British Airways Lost Luggage content all the following weeks! Please don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe.
