You're mixing up with Israeli law. I think with Israeli law you're right but not with EU.

Israeli Law applies to any airline.

Israeli law applies for flights to and out of Israel EU law is only for flights leaving EU
Not that having Israeli law on your side helps, AA owes me refunds and compensation according to Israeli law and they are just ignoring my emails

Looks like it applies to all departing EU.
Shame that the DoT is afraid from the airline lobbyists to impose such laws. They only have bumping laws.
EU/Israel have laws that you have to pay the pax. DOT has a law that you have to pay the govt (3 hr tarmac for example)

Even if the bags hadn't been lost he wouldn't have made it into flight because the lounge agent hadn't told him to check his bags....

Rep in the exec office called me a couple times and promised a follow-up weeks ago.
I've left her several voicemails but haven't heard a thing in the meantime.

Filed a DoT complaint today.

What are you trying to gain with the DOT complaint, what outcome do you wish for?

Why wouldn't you try huca at the executive desk? You can always find a really nice agent to make stuff happen...

Seems like a great business. Since most lost bags, Dans included, show up before the 5th day.
