Aviation: Lost Luggage
- Question

No. The Government have no locus to intervene in disputes on the level of service provided by a particular airline or ground service provider.Legislation protecting passenger rights in respect of lost, damaged or delayed baggage is covered under the 1999 Montreal Convention which came into force in June 2004, and provides the basis upon which passengers may seek compensation from airlines.
