There’s something you can do to increase the odds of your bag coming out near the front. Some of you might already know this but when you check your luggage, ask them to put a sticker or tag on it that says “FRAGILE.” Most airlines have them for free and it increases the odds of your bag being loaded onto the plane last.
That’s good because when they unload the plane there’s a higher chance they’ll send it to the carousel first or at least in the first group of bags.
Plus, the other added benefit is they might be a little more careful with your stuff. Which is good even if you don’t have anything too breakable in there.
