Man finds missing luggage still sat at Manchester Airport - AFTER their holiday

A disgruntled dad has issued a plea to TUI after his missing luggage never arrived on holiday. Instead, he found it on a truck as he landed back in Manchester Airport a week later.

Peter Mowbray, 55, had flown from Manchester Airport to Marrakech on August 1. The 'holiday of a lifetime' was to celebrate his 30th wedding anniversary with his wife and son and saw the trio take on unforgettable experiences like a Hot Air Balloon ride across the deserts of Morocco and visiting the second highest waterfalls in Africa.

But Peter says the once-in-a-lifetime trip quickly started to unravel after his luggage, containing all of his clothes and a number of items belonging to his wife and son, never arrived. For the week-long holiday, Peter washed his one pair of underpants daily and says he was left "abandoned in Morocco with nothing" by the airline.

Peter, from Blackpool, told LancsLive he intentionally uses a pink polka dot suitcase so that should it ever go missing, it is easy to identify. After landing in Morocco though, he says it was the only bag on the flight not to arrive.

Peter says the pink polka dot case included his wife's dresses, clothes for events and dinners, as well as Peter's essential day-to-day holiday wear. At the time, Peter was wearing a tie-dye t-shirt and a pair of denim shorts, both of which were all he had for the remaining holiday.
