Kansai Airport Has Not Lost Luggage in 30 Years

Kansai International Airport in Japan has set a record by not losing a single passenger's luggage in the last 30 years. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

This was reported by the Daily Mail publication. This result reflects the high responsibility and trust demonstrated by the airport staff.

Kansai Airport is located on an artificial island in Osaka and serves millions of passengers daily. In 2023, over 10 million pieces of luggage were transported through the airport, and none of them were lost.

For this reason, Kansai has been recognized eight times as the "World's Best Baggage Delivery Airport." The main reason for achieving excellence at the airport is Japanese formality and responsibility.

Each bag is checked at least three times, and delicate items are handled with special care. If moisture is detected, staff wipe and dry the luggage.

Thus, passengers' luggage is always kept safe. However, the Kansai airport facilities have been sinking year by year.

The $14 billion airport, built on two artificial islands, has sunk by 11.5 meters. This has exceeded the 50-year forecast made by engineers.

Concrete pillars are sinking into the seabed, putting the runways at risk from seawater. Therefore, additional measures are necessary to maintain and reinforce the airport infrastructure.
