Reservation rewards - lost and damaged baggage protection
While you are a Member of
Reservation Rewards, Lost and Damaged Baggage Protection provides additional compensation following the loss of or damage to your baggage by any common carrier airline. This protection covers reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while filing a loss or damage claim against a Common Carrier airline, as well as the difference between your claimed amount and the airline's settlement. There is a limit of up to $250 per claim and up to $500 per year. Any payment of this benefit shall be offset against any claim paid under the Delayed Baggage benefit of this service.
The common carrier must approve and pay some amount of the claim submitted. Only one Lost and Damaged Baggage incident will be covered per trip.
You must be a Member of
Reservation Rewards at the time of the incident and at the time your Claim is processed. The lost or damaged baggage must be checked under your name. Your claim must be filed with the supporting documentation as soon as possible, but no later than 30 days from the date of Common Carrier settlement. Claims for checked baggage will only be processed and paid after the common carrier responsible for the loss or damage has processed and settled the claim against it. If the common carrier completely denies your claim (does not acknowledge a bag has been checked, for instance), there will be no reimbursement for loss or damages claimed under this plan.
How to Make a Claim
You can initiate a claim at http://www.reservationrewardsinfo.com/. You need to submit a claim within within 30 days of settlement with the Common Carrier Airline. You will need to submit a completed claim form along with a copy of the credit/debit card statement(s) that includes the liability charge. You must include the name of the credit/debit card, the state in which it operates and a phone number for the institution(s) if these are not visible on the copy of the statement(s).
Reservation Rewards is always there to help you with your cliam.
