A BA passenger whose bag was lost on opening day of Heathrow's Terminal 5, is offering a free holiday to anyone who finds it.
Sounds like a good deal to me.

Michael Birtles, the managing director of European Rail Ltd, is offering tickets on Eurostar Paris - worth £300 - for the safe return of bag before 5pm tomorrow.

Mr Birtles explained his bag was lost on T5's opening day after he took flight BA576 to Milan for a trade conference in Aosta.

He said: "I am the Managing Director of European Rail Ltd, and BA don't have a clue where my bag is, or seem to care."

He also complained he had to queue for two hours to report the loss.

The business man initially instructed his bag to be sent on to his hotel, then to his holiday address in Switzerland and now to his home in the UK - but two weeks later it's still missing.

"So, I'll open the hunt to all comers. Find my bag and deliver to my office and you'll get a free pair of standard class returntickets on Eurostar to Paris," he added.
