Hundreds of passengers flying from Birmingham Airport have been left without their luggage due to ongoing issues with its baggage systems. The airport confirmed on Saturday morning that engineers are working to fix the problem, which has affected outbound flights since Friday. Passengers, including some travelling for weddings, have had to buy essentials abroad with no clear information on when their bags will arrive.
