Air Canada accused of 'lying' to customers to avoid paying up to $2,100 for lost. The Airline says it approves 'reasonable interim expenses.' Scott Bissell says an Air Canada agent told him the airline wouldn’t reimburse him for toiletries and other necessities after the airline lost his luggage during a family vacation to Florida.

But really ruin his whole vacations? I wouldn’t have shop everyday, go once by the necessary and move on.
