Blame Air Canada – Tour de France rider still missing THREE bikes lost on flight to Grand Départ due to global airline baggage crisis

A pro cyclist who got a late call-up to the Tour de France is still down three bikes that went missing when he flew from Canada to Copenhagen last month for the Grand Départ in yet another case of luggage being lost due to the global baggage crisis.

As a result he had to ride the opening individual time trial on a bike borrowed from a team-mate, finishing in 129th place. “I have nothing and they don’t know,” he explained. “It’s been almost a month and there are limits. It’s annoying not having your stuff. I wanted to give them a chance, but I find it pretty ordinary.”

“For anyone, a plane ticket is not cheap. I would have expected better. This is my situation, but I find it deplorable for everyone who is experiencing the same problem this summer.”on the increasing problem of passengers’ baggage going missing at airports around the globe, partly due to a huge surge in the number of travellers following two years of restrictions due to COVID-19, and airports and carriers not recruiting sufficient staff to replace workers laid off during the pandemic.
