Passengers Watch In Disbelief As Airport Workers Fail To Pick Up Luggage That Fell Onto Tarmac

There’s a lot of anxiety that people can have around flying. Some extreme fears include being afraid that the plane will crash or being detained by Transportation Security Administration agents.

But sometimes the anxiety is caused by something a little more mundane.

And the suspense can freak out a whole group of people

TikTok user Jackie (@jackatyou) shared a video that chronicles the journey of luggage that everyone worried wouldn’t get on the plane.

At the start, the bag is on the ground and Jackie mentions everyone in the Delta lounge who can see it is nervously waiting to see what happens to it.

Multiple agents come up, with one just passing it entirely, another moving it out of the way and a third inspecting it but leaving it alone.

Finally, a bag agent comes in and picks up the bag as the music in the video praises him for his work.

It’s a tremendous fear if you’re flying that your bag does not reach your destination.

Users were quick to call out the first few agents who left it there, especially the second two who clearly saw the bag and didn’t pick it up.

But others weren’t so sure it was their fault. For starters, what do they gain by leaving a bag on the track and not moving it?

Because of this, many argued there were protocols in place surrounding a lost piece of luggage like that. The most common theory is handlers for other airlines cannot take the baggage if it's not flying with them.

So don’t be so quick to judge the handlers.

Eventually someone came into the comments and claimed it was their bag.
