My dad has flown to Miami, where he will get a second flight Porto Ricco, to do some work for Bacardi. He owns a television / film production company, and is working on their walk-through experience.
He is now waiting in his hotel-room, pale-faced, because his luggage has not arrived. He's told the soonest it'll arrive is tommorow afternoon.
He leaves for Porto Ricco this morning.
All his equipment, including $85,000 lenses are in that case. Without it, he cannot do his job, at all. My dad is self-employed, in that he owns the business; he's frequently up editting all night from his studio, and often we don't see him at weekends. If he's not working, we don't eat.
What do you say to executives at Bacardi if you don't have your equipment?
So, the luggage is marked only as far as Miami, what'll happen?
What'll happen? And what compensation can he claim?
