A spokesperson for the airline tells WCBS 880 that flights were being held in hopes of getting the system up and running again. Since they weren’t able to get the system running, flights have resumed, but are taking off without baggage.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is manually screening bags.
Passengers are being told that if they don’t want to fly without their bags, they can wait for another flight.
Well what else would they do besides waiting for another flight,unless they would go without their bags.
If the system malfunctions does that mean you actually GET you bags?
how much do they charge for bags not delivered?
