Traveling can be pretty stressful, and arriving to find your suitcase didn’t make it or got ruined along the way only makes it that much worse. It can happen anywhere, but it turns out, some airports have a better track record than others when it comes to handling your baggage. According to Lifehacker, and new research, we know which ones need improvement.

  • Using data from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA,) experts at Forbes Advisor have determined the worst airports in the country for lost and damaged luggage.
  • They analyzed the 100 busiest airports based on the number of property damage claims and property loss claims, as well as the percentage of claims reimbursed in full.
  • Based on these factors, they’ve found John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York City is the worst for lost and damaged luggage, with a score of 100 out of 100.
  • Miami International Airport is second, followed by Los Angeles International Airport.
  • The report also finds American Airlines tops the list of worst airports for mishandled luggage, while Hawaiian Airlines has the lowest rate of mishandled luggage.

Do Not Travel: The United States Has Issued Travel Warnings For These 20+ Dangerous Countries In 2023

Looking to book a trip? Considering international travel? Seeing the world and other cultures can be a wonderous thing. But that doesn’t mean that every destination is the safest place to travel, especially at a specific time. The United States government wants to make sure all citizens are safe when traveling. One way they do this is by issuing travel advisories. These are ever-changing as conditions can change rapidly. The Department of States issues a Travel Advisory for each country in the world. These can be checked anytime at travel.state.gov. There have been numerous updates to the United States travel warnings since 2023 began.

But before we tell you about those let’s delve a little more into what these mean. There are four levels (one through four). One being “exercise normal precautions” and four being “do not travel”.  Below you will find a list of all the level 3 and 4 countries that have been updated since 2023 began and their corresponding risk indicators. You can also view the ones that were previously updated. Want more info about a certain country or want to see the level for a country not mentioned? You can get all the current info on United States travel warnings here.

Also, note that Isreal and Mexico are not mentioned on this list and are categorized as “Level Other” with the advice being to avoid both places.
