Sharow talked about the article: “That’s my bag!”  She briefly introduced the story and asked what you would do if someone took something of yours by mistake.  2 members said they would challenge that person and got their baggage back.  However, she said she would not challenge that person because she was ashamed to do that.  In addition, she shared her experience: keep the claim tag.  And double check if the destination and flight number on the tag are correct to ensure your baggage will be delivered to the right place.
