My 2 Red Bags
2 RED BAG Saga Finally Ends at 8 1/2 days.

Last Wednesday afternoon I checked my "2 RED BAGS" and Delta didn't charge me any fees. Then when I went to the China Airlines counter in San Francisco to get my boarding passes for my flights to Taipei and then Kuala Lumpur I was not allowed to get them or board my flight.
San Francisco 28 hours (long story already written about).
I left on Philippine Airlines and flew to Manila and then to Jakarta without my "2 RED BAGS".
after filing a lost bag report with two different baggage retrieval companies and then with the concierge of my hotel: InterContinental Airport I checked each day with no success.
Then I flew from Jakarta to Kuala Lumpur on Malaysian Airlines without my "2 RED BAGS".
Later on Wednesday evening I received an email saying that my "2 RED BAGS" had been found in Jakarta.
Then after several emails and SKYPE calls the baggage lost and found people arranged for my "2 RED BAGS" to be sent to Penang, where I have been since Wednesday afternoon (without my bags still).
Then about 1:00 pm today I learned that the company did not have an agent in Penang nor does Philippine Airlines so I would have to go to the Penang Airport to pick them up myself.
My friend: Soo Beng volunteered to drive me to the airport to pick up my "2 RED BAGS".
Without him it would have taken hours of going back and forth between Malaysia Airlines offices and security offices.
Instead he spoke to all the agents of each agency and company and we zipped through the process.
My "2 RED BAGS" are now in my hotel room after 8 1/2 days of adventure on their own.
YAY!!!!
HOORAY!!!
Dancing in the hallways and maybe the streets when I go to join in the celebrations for Buddha's Birthday this afternoon and evening first with the annual parade.
