Another van driver took me back to the airport as soon as we got to the hotel and it wasn't there. Since it was "after hours" only an MWAA cop could have helped me. I looked around for almost an hour pre-TSA checkpoint, but there was none to be found.
Should I have waited to be sure the bag was safely in the van, yes, BUT it was a lonnnng day working back from Europe and it started pouring rain as he was loading the bags.
