Perdita bagagli, ecco quello che le polizze non ci dicono

🛄 Over 36 million bags were lost or damaged last year. In June alone, requests for insurance policies for lost, damaged, or delayed baggage increased by 10% year-on-year, according to Facile.it. These policies often exclude items like smartphones, tablets, PCs, and cameras, and certainly don’t cover cash, checks, or art objects.

Policies never cover self-inflicted damage or unattended items, and compensation may be reduced by any amount received from the carrier.
