Your suitcase is late—but what if I told you that’s a good thing?

In this week’s Travel Talk episode, host Kim Anderson shares a little-known travel hack that could score you free airline miles—all for waiting at baggage claim. Inspired by her conversation with Betsy (Episode #164), an Alaska Airlines points and miles expert, Kim breaks down exactly how this perk works, who’s eligible, and how to make sure you don’t miss out on easy miles the next time your bag takes its sweet time arriving.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The airline policies that reward you for delayed baggage.
• How to claim your miles (and the key deadlines you can’t miss!).
• Pro tips to make sure you always get the compensation you deserve.

So, the next time your suitcase is MIA at baggage claim, don’t stress—get rewarded. Tune in now!
