British Airways lost more bags per passenger last year than any other large airline in Europe, according to a report from the Association of European Airlines.
The Air Transport Users Council (AUC) in the UK called for the publication of “name and shame” league tables for airlines around the world in order to lead a drive for improved performance. It said European Union-wide league tables published by the European Commission “would be a good place to start”.
The AEA statistics show that BA lost 23 bags per 1,000 passengers last year compared with 21 at TAP Air Portugal, 18.1 at Lufthansa and 16.6 at Air France.
