Hopefully they find your bag but try and get someone else apart from BA to look for it.They lost our bags on a flight from Philly to Orly.After the first 2 days the response was we have delivered them and no further response was forthcoming.
The Concierge at the Marriott Amsterdam finally found them at the Left baggage at Schipol.BA wouldn't even arrange for them to be sent to our hotel.
