Classes as usual. All seems well for the moment.

Biggest current problem: the luggage of one of our students, Wynter, is stuck in Istanbul; it didn't make the hand-off from Delta to Turkish Airlines. Delta had required her to do a bag check at the gate. Bishkek is a pretty uncommon destination, so I'm not too surprised that they didn't pull it off. Her mom successfully found a "Baggage Identification Form" for Turkish Airlines with the help of Delta Airlines, but the TA website that has the form does not say where to send the form. Frustrating.

I gave a call to Turkish Airlines. They said they would send me all the information that Wynter needed to my gmail address. No sign of it. But I had also asked for a back-up address to which things could be sent, so I forwarded Wynter's form thither. In the meantime she also stopped by a local TA office. Hopefully it will all come through.
