First route

Report the bag.

This creates the tracing record. It does not usually replace the later documented claim.

Open the PIR at the airport Lost and Found office - the window is 24 hours from arrival.

02

Keep the PIR reference code, digital or paper.

03

Track and update delivery details through the official baggage portal.

Second route

Build the claim record.

RecoupLane organises what you confirm. The airline applies its own assessment.

01

Essential purchases become claimable 24 hours after the PIR is opened.

02

Keep receipts for basic hygiene products and clothes.

03

Claim through the official chat route with the PIR code and receipts; lost-bag compensation opens 21 days after the PIR.
