Why it's important to take notice of your luggage tag at the airport

 

Imagine checking your luggage at the airport, boarding your flight and arriving overseas — only to discover that your luggage tag has been switched onto someone else's suitcase, one containing illegal drugs. That's the nightmare at the center of an investigation Avery Haines and the W5 team first brought to light back in May. Since then, more travelers have come forward, and now 11 Canadians are taking legal action against airlines and other organizations, saying they were caught up in this alleged drug-smuggling scheme through no fault of their own. Avery Haines spoke to Andrew Carter.
