Be sure to pack your necessities in a carry on. Several in our group in April lost their checked bags on an AA-Silver code share from LAX and DEN to EIS. Several of the bags arrived 2 days later and the last bag finally arrived 5 days late. AA washed their hands of it saying they handed the bags off to Silver even though it was really the AA flight delays that probably led to the problem in the first place. My idiot sister in law unbelievably had packed her meds in her checked bag. It took us several days to find a chemist to set her right. Needless to say, our sailing itinerary was......hmmm, not what we had planned.
