@SimonCalder @sargeant_gail @christails @British_Airways @SimonCalder Hi Simon, I’ve documented an EgyptAir case: 48+ hr baggage delay with essential prescription medication (heart+child meds), followed by 5 months of followups & no resolution beyond a USD $100 offer https://t.co/Tq0OzbLwZY Would appreciate your view on this.Thank you

All 3 of our bags were delayed for 48+ hours over New Year — including essential heart medication and medication for our child. We arrived in Dubai with nothing, no help, and no support. 5 months later: just USD $100 compensation.

4/4 We have now escalated this matter to aviation regulators due to prolonged delays, lack of communication, and absence of a fair resolution despite full documentation and repeated follow-ups over several months.

@gcaa_uae @DcaaDubai Formal complaint already submitted. Case involves 48+ hour baggage delay, essential medication, and unresolved compensation after 5 months despite full documentation and repeated follow-ups.

@EGYPTAIR @staralliance @SimonCalder This case involves prolonged baggage delay, lack of assistance, and a compensation outcome that does not reflect documented emergency expenses or medical risk during travel.

2/4 @EGYPTAIR @staralliance Flights MS067/MS910 (Luxor–Cairo–Dubai): all 3 checked bags delayed 48+ hrs over New Year. A family (2 adults + 1 child) arrived in Dubai without belongings or access to essential prescription medication, incl. heart medication. No assistance provided.

3/4 After 5 months of repeated follow-ups, the claim was only disclosed as “settled” on 16 Feb 2026 (informed 28 Apr after chasing). Final offer: USD $100 for 3 passengers. Despite this, the case remains unresolved.

@EGYPTAIR @staralliance Full documentation and receipts submitted throughout. No meaningful resolution despite multiple follow-ups over several months.

@drdeanknight @nzherald Yeh I also found it quite annoying to be able to only cancel via phone and that too only between the hours of 8-4!!
