Lost Baggage? What to do when your luggage gets lost by airlines?

How Do I Get Luggage Compensation When The Airline Loses My Bag?

Let Tycoon Holidays book your Travel Insurance and we will help you get compensation by the airlines or will follow up your case with airlines. This is an amazing service only for Tycoon Holidays™ customers.

It's an awful experience when an airline loses your luggage, and it happens to hundreds of passengers experience every single day.

Unfortunately, this still varies wildly depending on each airline and each specific situation.

To help you navigate these tricky waters, we've compiled everything you need to know for when your luggage gets lost

f your luggage is damaged, get the airline to pay for repairs

If a bag is torn, missing a wheel, or in any way damaged, the airline should pay for repairs. If it's beyond help, the airline will pay you its depreciated value. Same goes for anything inside that's been damaged, though you'll have to prove that you didn't pack the damaged goods inadequately, especially if the outside of the suitcase is fine.

If your bag is delayed, report it as lost ASAP

Most "lost" bags are only delayed, as airlines have increasingly sophisticated systems of tracking them down, and can usually do so within a few hours. Chances are, your bags simply got on the wrong flight.

However, you still want a paper trail. Even if airline personnel has located your luggage and say it's on the next flight, ask them to file a report. You can give them your baggage claim tags, just make sure to get a copy of the report. Also make sure to get a phone number so that you can follow up/pester someone just in case .

Pro tip: take a photo of your luggage before you depart: it'll be more effective than describing your black suitcase.

A Guide to Your First South Africa Safari

2016-07-15T08:34:00.001-07:00

Few destinations rival South Africa when it comes to offering a wide range of attractions combined with an easy and convenient regional travel. Home to the Big 5 and breathtaking natural beauty, South Africa is an ideal safari destination for families, honeymooners and adventure seekers of all ages. The teeming game reserves are home to lion, elephant, buffalo and rhino in addition to rare cheetah and all the plains game favourites, like zebra, giraffe and gazelle. South Africa's Kruger area is widely considered the best place in Africa to see leopard, the most elusive big cat.

Accommodation options range from five-star to star-lit, and include family lodges, honeymoon hideaways, and grand tented camps of which Hemingway would have approved. You can hop onto a scheduled tour or take advantage of expert advice and tailor-make a fly- or drive-safari to your exact specifications.

With so much on offer, where should you go? The Kruger is a must-see on your safari and if you're travelling with young children, we recommend one of South Africa's famous malaria-free private reserves. Another must-see with something wonderful for every age and appetite is Cape Town, home to internationally acclaimed wine country and gourmet dining, award-winning beaches, the Two Oceans Aquarium, open air markets, mountain trails for hikers and cyclists, vibrant theatre and nightlife, and a range of ultra luxe villas, hotels, shopping malls and spas.

The Flagship: The Kruger National Park

The Granddaddy of South Africa’s reserves, the century-old Kruger is synonymous with safaris. We recommend a stay at one of the private reserves that adjoin the main park, or one of the exclusive-use concessions located within it - these promise crowd-free environments where the game viewing ranks among the best in Africa. Indeed, such is the density of game in the Sabi Sands, Timbavati and Thornybush private reserves that it’s not unusual to see the Big 5 in a single day, with leopard sightings so good you’ll feel like you’re in a National Geographic feature film! Night drives, guided walks and off-road driving add to the adventure, while open-top tree houses, world class spas, fine dining and private villas combine to deliver a superior vacation experience.

There are plenty of family-friendly lodges with babysitters and children’s activity clubs as well as camps that emphasise the romantic side of safaris – sumptuous, tucked-away suites and candle-lit dinners for two. You can drive to the Kruger from Johannesburg or fly in from almost anywhere in South Africa. The ease of getting around South Africa and its neighbouring safari destinations makes it simple and easy to combine the Kruger's big game viewing with the tropical paradise beaches of Mozambique’s Bazaruto or Quirimbas Archipelagos, or Africa's gastronomy and design capital, Cape Town, or the continent's self-proclaimed adventure capital, Victoria Falls.

When to go: the May to October dry season is the best time in terms of climate and game viewing. The rainy summer season is a time of newborn antelope, lush green views and sensational bird watching. Bear in mind that Kruger falls into a malaria zone: the risk is slight - even in summer - but consult your medical practitioner before you travel.

Keeping it easy: Madikwe & Pilanesberg

Malaria-free, home to the Big 5 and located close to Sun City, Africa’s biggest and boldest holiday resort – what’snot to like about these two premier reserves?

A beautifully scenic reserve cradled in an extinct volcanic crater, Pilanesberg is th closest to Sun City – in fact, it's right next door. For those who want to mix waterslides and championship golf courses with game viewing by 4X4, elephant-back and hot air balloon, this is the ideal destination. Two-and-a-bit hours' drive from Johannesburg and offering great game viewing year round, Pilanesberg is a perfect introductory safari and is easily included on a self-drive itinerary - families with young children will love it.

The experience is far more exclusive at Madikwe. Set on red sands at the edge of the Kalahari, this private reserve is home to a beguiling mix of desert and savannah species, and its accommodation varies from camps specialising in families to those offering the ultimate in romantic luxury. Under a 2-hour drive from Sun City, Madikwe offers an extra edge to a self-drive safari: you’ll join night drives and sit down to lavish lantern-lit suppers away from camp.

Malaria-free: the Eastern Cape

South Africa’s Eastern Cape is home to beautiful malaria-free game reserves set along rivers and the great escarpment, sitting under dazzling night skies and filled with the call of lion.

These are multi-faceted reserves, places where Big 5 game viewing vies for your attention with river cruises and cultural tours. Families can enjoy the option of private villa accommodation, and since many lodges offer family-oriented safari programmes, parents get to enjoy a massage at the spa while their children have a hands-on cooking lesson or learn how to track animals.

Add an Eastern Cape safari onto a Cape Town and Garden Route tour: the can-do nature of this popular holiday region means a self-drive safari is ideal – pick up your car in Cape Town and return it in Port Elizabeth before flying out. You can take in the Whale Coast and Cape Winelands on the way, leaving you plenty of time to discover why the Garden Route is so named before settling back for a few days of classic Big 5 game viewing.

Discover a nation’s struggle for freedom whilst following the footsteps of Nelson Mandela, Hector Pieterson and many other celebrated revolutionaries.

The South African freedom struggle is a compelling story of the sacrifices made by the people in overcoming the oppression of colonialism and apartheid. The freedom struggle of South Africa began soon after the arrival of Dutch settlers in 1652 and continued until 1994.

The South African freedom struggle is a fascinating aspect of our history. There are struggle heritage sites all over the country – for example you can follow Nelson Mandela's long walk to freedom or visit where Mahatma Gandhi lived while in South Africa.

The South African freedom struggle began when the KhoiKhoi resisted the establishment of a refreshment station at Table Bay by the Dutch East India Company in 1652. But until January 1912, when the forerunner to the African National Congress (ANC) was established, the battle against growing oppression was localised. And even then it would remain fairly passive until the advent of apartheid in 1948, which ushered in a period of repression infinitely worse than anything experienced before.

At the behest of young activists like Nelson Mandela, the ANC began to change its direction to a mass-based movement intent on liberation from apartheid. Growing resistance culminated in the Sharpeville Massacre in March 1960 in which 69 protestors were killed by police. In panic the government declared a state of emergency and banned the ANC and other liberation movements.

The ANC responded by taking the struggle in South Africa underground and establishing an armed wing, Umkhonto weSizwe (Spear of the Nation), which was at the forefront of the freedom struggle. The government, in turn, tightened its repressive measures and attempted to crush the movement, forcing those leaders who were not incarcerated on Robben Island to flee overseas. With the ANC inactive in the country, movements such as the Black Consciousness Movement grew in popularity, particularly among students.

Student involvement in that movement culminated in the 16 June 1976 Soweto uprising. On that day, the youth staged protests against the government's attempts to change the medium of instruction at black schools to Afrikaans. The uprising was violently crushed, with many of the students shot dead by the police. Many who survived left the country to join the struggle. The famous image of a shot Hector Pieterson being carried by Mbuyisa Makhubo during that uprising became the symbol of youth resistance in South Africa.

Meanwhile, the ANC in exile and internal underground structures were able to bring such pressure to bear on the apartheid government during the freedom struggle of South Africa that it unbanned all liberation movements in 1990, freed imprisoned leaders and entered negotiations, which culminated in the first democratic elections being held on 27 April 1994.

10Responsible Tourism

In South Africa you can travel with care as you explore our protected areas, contribute to social and conservation projects, buy recycle art and stay green.

South Africa is one of the foremost responsible tourism leaders in the world, with dozens of gorgeous destinations where communities are uplifted and the environment is protected. You’ll return home with a higher awareness of the interconnection between people and the earth. Plus memories of a really great time.

Responsible tourism in South Africa is a marvelous way of making a positive difference through travel. You return home refreshed, carbon-neutral and culturally enriched, with memories to last a lifetime.

Broadly speaking, here are some responsible tourism guidelines:

Avoid waste and overconsumption
Use local resources in a sustainable way
Maintain and encourage natural, social, economic and cultural diversity
Be sensitive to the host culture
Involve the local community in planning and decision-making
Assess the environmental, social and economic impacts before embarking on tourism developments
Ensure that communities are involved in, and benefit from, tourism.

One of the first environmental issues people think of these days is the impact of the flight. In South Africa you can offset carbon emissions while uplifting communities at the same time, through Food and Trees for Africa. After calculating your carbon footprint via their calculator, your donation will help plant fruit and indigenous trees in schools, clinics and the backyards of impoverished areas.

Another South African responsible tourism initiative allows you to check whether the seafood item you're eyeing on the menu is endangered or not. The South African Sustainable Seafood Initiative (SASSI) gives you the simple option of texting your choice to a mobile number. Within minutes, you'll have your reply. The fish may be labeled ‘green' (feel free to order), ‘orange' (in trouble, but legal to eat) or ‘red' (kindly desist).

Becoming a responsible tourist can also be a matter of choosing the right accommodation. And there are plenty of choices, as you'll find wherever you find the RT icon on this website. Just by staying at these destinations, you can ensure minimal impact on the environment, maximum positive social spinoff, and a feel-good factor all round.

Similarly, responsible voluntourism (or volunteer tourism) is now also underpinned by standards that aim to ensure valuable input by volunteers and tangible benefits for the communities involved. As a volunteer, check that possible programmes adhere to this code. Fair Trade Tourism has an accreditation programme for volunteer projects. A list of accredited programmes is available on its website.
