re: Stolen items from luggage
You're an absolute idiot for putting those types of items in your checked baggage anyway, so you have no one to blame but yourself. Firstly - why would you even bring that type of jewellry with you in the first place ( do you really need to flash your baubles on the beach ) and secondly, if they're so precious to you - why aren't you WEARING your engagement/wedding rings??
I wouldn't even put expensive/sentimental items in my checked baggage if I was flying through Heathrow/Frankfurt/Dulles let alone a country like Cuba. If I had something precious and didn't want anything to happen to it, it wouldn't leave my side - so once again, it's your own stupid fault for leaving it in your checked baggage.
Stolen items from luggage
I flew from this airport to the Uk on 03/06/2010 and the padlocks were broken on my luggage, items stolen included my engagement ring, wedding ring, 2 pairs of gold earings, 1 pair of silver earings and perfum..... be very careful!!!!
