In the latter case, many travelers often agree that airport workers are inconsiderate when handling luggage, often causing damage to passengers’ belongings.

The video, shared by user @elespanolcom on Tik Tok, begins: “Airline employee caught throwing passengers’ bags down the stairs.”
In the photos you can see how the worker picks up different suitcases and carelessly throws them down the stairs, leaving the fate of the passengers' belongings to chance. Apart from the indignation he caused among the passengers of the flight, many comments on the video posted on the networks emphasized that airport employees “always do this”, while others demanded sanctions against both the employee and the airline.
