Baggage Rules For Travelers If an airline looses your luggage, you must file a lost or damaged bag claim in a timely manner to qualify for reimbursement. Airlines state in their rules that they may not be liable for damaged bags if the traveler does not report the problem within a certain period of time. Unfortunately for the traveler, each airline differs in its filing requirement.

The following are deadlines for each carrier. Continental-4 hours, Delta-21 days, Eastern-7 days, Northwest-4 hours, Pan Am-45 days, Piedmont-45 days, TWA-1 day, United-1 day (United requires passengers to pick up luggage within 30 minutes after arrival), and US Air-45 days.
