A Scots mum whose bag has gone missing at Edinburgh Airport claims she witnessed thousands of abandoned cases lying around the busy travel hub. Margaret Brennan and her husband, from Callander, boarded a British Airways flight to London City on Friday morning for a posh work event.

But when the 54-year-old landed, she discovered her case had failed to follow her onto the plane and remained in Edinburgh amidst widespread baggage chaos across UK airports. The mum-of-two claims she was told her bag would be sent out via courier to her weekend accommodation by Saturday at the latest.

But she was forced to make a mad dash to the shops for replacement clothes and make-up when it didn’t arrive, causing her to fear sentimental items in the case may be lost forever. Despite twice being told her bag was on its way to her, Margaret had to fly home on Sunday and claims she was greeted by a mountain of suitcases at Edinburgh Airport.

She explained: “When we came back through on Sunday night, there were bags everywhere. What worries me is there were loads of suitcases in a corridor, just lying there.
