This appears to have been a problem with the airport baggage system. Was Lufthansa the only airline affected?

Not sure if limited to just Lufthansa, but it popped up while making LH reservations on the LH APP. My guess itโ€™s airport wide as the number of bags held up is huge. Iโ€™ll change the subject a bit.

We didn't have any connection with this problem. But at the end of August, four of us went from Chicago to Berlin Germany via Toronto Canada. First of all, Air Canada is something to avoid especially if it is a "Rouge" plane. They feel like they came out of 1950's.

Anyways, the plane from Chicago to Toronto was very small and of course overbooked. The flight from Toronto to Berlin was just pretty bad but we got there. Not our luggage. No luggage when we arrived in Berlin...all 4 of us.

Went through all the steps of lost luggage. Well...apparently, our luggage took its own little vacation to Frankfurt by way of Lufthansa. Didn't follow us to Toronto at all. Got luggage later the same day but never got an explanation. We ASSUME that since the flight to Toronto was full on a small plane, they looked and saw it was going to Berlin and decided to send it on a different bigger plane through Frankfurt. Go figure.
