    ...seems like our national carrier lost Stormy Daniels’ luggage.

    She’s tweeting about it anyway.

    I develop Superior Solitaire when I'm not procrastinating on boards.ie.

    Cue a tweet from Trump praising our national airline.

    Just because Aer Lingus are the carrier it does not mean they lost her luggage. It could have been ground handling in the airport and might have happened regardless of who she flew with.

    And a lot of people confuse "lost luggage" with "delayed luggage"

    If its a tight connection your bags won't always make it on time, regardless of airline.

    It may not have been directly Aer Lingus who lost the luggage but as with most things, she had her ticket with AE so her grievance is going to be with them. Not the handlers. This happens time and again and its always the airline who is deemed responsible.

    Passengers don't care about any of that. They don't care who actually handled their bags (nor should they) and they don't care if it's late instead of lost (nor should they). She paid Aer Lingus to carry both her and her bags. If they're not at the end airport when she is, she's correct to say that Aer Lingus lost her bags.

    Oh stop talking sense! You’ll upset the fan boys and girls telling them that their airline can make mistakes

    (this airline doesn't have first class) belittling something needlessly... she obviously got more off Trump than she realised.
    Yes it is Aer lingus' issue, regardless of baggage handlers etc.

    Well that's a load off.

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
