Baggage Rights · preliminary estimate
Delayed, lost or damaged baggage claim calculator
Direct answer: this tool estimates a checked-baggage claim path—not a payout.
It separates documented essential purchases or damage from the current liability ceiling, then keeps the free direct-airline route visible. The airline still assesses evidence, exclusions and deadlines.

How to use the baggage estimate responsibly
The calculator separates checked baggage from cabin baggage, delayed essentials from permanent loss, and documented damage from an unsupported replacement amount. It keeps entries in the browser and does not send evidence to an airline.
Use documented amounts
Enter reasonable essentials or a repair estimate only when you can support the amount with an itemised receipt, photograph or written assessment.
Act on the notice warning
The result flags urgency but does not calculate a court deadline. Use the airline's current official form promptly and retain the confirmation.
Common questions
Does the calculator save my baggage details?
No. Public calculator entries are designed to remain in the browser session. Do not enter passport, bank or identity-document information.
Can the SDR amount change in my currency?
Yes. SDR conversion rates move. The tool labels the dated IMF reference used for an approximate EUR, GBP or USD display while keeping SDR as the primary ceiling.
