In June 2025, we launched a new service for baggage claims for lost, delayed, and/or destroyed luggage. We are present in the EU, UK, and other international markets, focusing on protecting air passenger rights globally. We have successfully processed over 500,000 claims for clients from 221 countries, learning a 4.7-star rating from 25,850+ reviews.
