Lagging Baggage

As we are in the midst of prepping for our great Panamanian adventure (for a taster check out Barbara and Michael's blog), I recently purchased some airline tickets for domestic (Panamanian) travel. Recognizing that the planes would be tiny, I had to investigate the baggage policy to make sure we knew our weight limits. The translation just cracked me up, and so, for a good laugh, I'm posting it here...and I assure you, my ability to translate the intent of such a message from English to Spanish would have been no better, seeing as how I've already confused some nouns and probably requested goats instead of transportation--still it's good for a laugh:

International flights Lost Baggage

First and foremost we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

If you are seeing this page is because his luggage was lost.

You should have submitted a claim by that baggage, which for some reason is lagging in some airport or was mistakenly delivered to another passenger.

The airline tells you to fill out the form, which was the procedure, however if you have any suggestions or questions you do about your baggage please send email to: XXXXXX with the number of claims, which 'll taste immediate response on the investigations.
