On June 14th @ 3:30am ; I arrived at Colombo ( Sri Lanka) airport to join a group of 6 other passengers already waiting by check in counters, which were closed; departure was scheduled for 5 am, but waited till 9 am, no one showed up, According to customs rep " seats were re booked to others on first come first serve basis, and cancelling them on waiting passengers, rendering itineraries useless, and forcing me to re purchase another return flight ticket to the USA . Suitcase was lost for 30 days, returned destroyed thereafter only to be dumped in thrash; all three locks broken and contents lost.
