Shocking: how baggage handler really treat your bags

Ever opened your luggage after a trip to find your possessions battered? This could be why.

Traveller Lewis Marasco spotted a baggage handler at Edinburgh Airport carelessly hurling large suitcases onto the conveyer belt. 

Sharing video of the scene on Twitter, he wrote: ‘Great to see one of the baggage handlers at @EdiAirport taking no care with bags – no wonder things get broken.

‘Having had things broken myself I now see why – credit to the 3 other guys taking care.’

According to The Sun the baggage handlers work for Swissport International, a firm hired by the airport to carry out the task.
