Woman shocked after suitcase destroyed on Delta flight

Missing luggage is always a risk when flying but one woman had to deal with the aftermath of her suitcase allegedly being mangled and its contents damaged after a flight with Delta.

Photographer Emilie Hofferber, who goes by @moosechildd on Twitter, shared a photo of her destroyed suitcase, with the bottom completely shredded and a wheel missing.

“What the f–k Delta?” she tweeted on Wednesday with pictures of the bag.

“10-14 days to receive a reimbursement check by mail?” she said. “In 2022 we’re mailing checks because that’s the most effective way to transfer funds…”

The tweet has received over 91,000 likes and 2,300 comments from appalled Twitter users who couldn’t believe the state her suitcase was in.

“Was it handled by T-Rex?” one person joked.

“Did the plane crash?” asked another person in jest.

“Did someone drop it into a wood chipper? That level of damage is almost impressive,” another added.

“I’m amazed that Delta will give you some money instead of saying ‘that’s normal wear and tear,’” joked another.

One Twitter user replied saying the damage may not have occurred during the flight, but right before Hofferber picked it up.

“This is called ‘belt burn.’ It’s what happens when there’s a jam on a conveyor belt & things can’t move. Somebody has to physically climb on to unjam it,” they explained.

A Delta spokesperson told The Post the incident was a “rare occurrence.”

“Delta sincerely apologizes to this customer for the damage to her luggage and its contents,” they said.

“Delta teams have been in contact with the customer to offer compensation for this rare occurrence.”

The Post has reached out to Hofferber for comment.
