Sioux City
hour-and-a-halfhttp://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201211/201211190643151208193.mp3"Did you see your briefcase?" the agent asked.
"Yes!" I exclaimed. "It just went through that opening over there. How can I get it back now?"
"That's no problem," replied the agent. "Just give me your baggage claim check and I think we can catch it before it's loaded on a flight."
"But I don't have a claim check!" I replied. "I didn't check it! I'm not going anywhere. I'm just here to meet a flight."Calming myself down a bit, I explained what had happened and suggested that the bag had probably been turned in at the counter where one of the agents had checked it with other baggage and placed it on the conveyor belt.
The agent told me that the only way he could find it would be to have a claim form with a description of what the briefcase looked like. By the time I filled on the form and the agent called down to the baggage area, the briefcase had already been loaded on one of the flights, but they didn't know which one. The agent took my phone number and promised they would call as soon as they found the briefcase. Even though I lived in Sioux City, which was an hour-and-a-half drive away, they would deliver it to my address as soon as they got it back.“你看到自己的包了?”代理问我。
“是的。”我大声地说。“它刚穿过那边那个口子。我怎么才能把它取回来呢？”
“这不难。”代理回答说“把你的行李领取凭证给我，我想我们能够在装机前截住它。”
“可我没有行李凭证”我答道。“我没办托运，我哪儿都不去我是来接人的。”我平静了一下情绪，解释了事情的经过，并指出很可能有人把包交到了柜台，而某位代理把它和其他行李一起办了托运并放到了传送带上。
代理告诉我，能找回包的唯一办法是填写一张认领单，在上面写清公文包的外观特征。等我填完表格，代理打电话到下面的行李区查询时得知，包已被装上了一架班机，但不知是哪一架。代理抄下了我的电话号码，并保证他们一找到包就给我打电话。尽管我住在苏城，离机场有一个半小时的车程，他们还是会一找到包就把它送到我家来。
