- Over 200 Israeli students and staff arrived in Poland without their luggage.
- The problem is attributed to ground services company QAS and airline Enter Air.
- Delegates are forced to purchase essential items while awaiting luggage.
- A quick resolution is not expected due to subsequent flight bookings.
Over 200 students and staff from three delegations traveling from Rehovot and Ness Ziona to Poland arrived in Warsaw to find their luggage had been left behind in Israel. Representatives from the delegations reported that they are now without essential items like clothing, medication, and toiletries, forcing them to focus on finding local stores for necessities instead of their planned educational trip. An investigation by Ynet revealed that the problem was not with the Airport Authority but with QAS, a ground services company contracted by the airline Enter Air. QAS confirmed that none of the delegations' luggage was loaded onto the flight. A quick resolution appears unlikely, as flights to Poland over the next two days are fully booked with other delegations, leaving no clear timeline for the luggage's arrival in Warsaw. Participants are currently purchasing essential items and exploring insurance claims for reimbursement. Enter Air and QAS have not yet provided official statements.
