Alaska Airlines and 
Delta Air Lines are remarkable for offering delayed baggage compensation if it takes more than 20 minutes to arrive on the carousel. This is more than what most airlines offer (most, including Alaska and Delta) offer reimbursement for reasonable expenses caused by delayed bags. Lost and mishandled bags only account for around 0.7% of bags handled (most of which are eventually reunited with their owners) – although its more common to bags to just be delayed.
