26.3 million mishandled bags in 2022: As a senior Business Leader, are you confident your employees know to keep work laptops or tablets safe during air travel?

According to SITA's 2023 Baggage IT Insights report, the rate of mishandled luggage increased by 75% in 2022 compared to 2021, which is the highest rate since 2012. Some of the 26 million mishandled bags were either lost, damaged, or delayed. Though the air travel industry claim they are improving baggage handling operations, the surprise surge of mishandled baggage should alarm senior business leaders like Board Directors, CEOs, and COOs and demonstrate the need to ensure employees understand that work laptops or tablets should always be with them at all times when traveling by air.
