Looking from the luggage’s point of view, viewers saw the suitcase go through a conveyor belt, spinning a few times along the way.

Then the bag quickly passes a crew member.

Finally, the suitcase is placed with the other suitcases, ready to be put on the plane and transported to the destination.

More than 100,000 bags pass through airports every day, and while many passengers simply drop off their bags without a second thought, Thomas has now lifted the lid on the baggage process.

Alternative airlines — a site that helps you book flights from anywhere in the world — confirmed the accuracy of Thomas’ footage by describing in detail what happens after you drop off your bag.

After checking in, your suitcase will be placed on a conveyor belt. Depending on the airport you depart from, it then goes to the sorting office, where ‘robots or staff’ will sort them into the correct aircraft.

During the journey your luggage is checked at a security check – similar to the process of having your hand luggage scanned by an X-ray machine – to determine if there are any suspicious items inside.

After passing through security, you will be transported to the aircraft, where airport agents will ensure that your luggage is placed on the correct aircraft.

After you land at your destination, your bag is taken off the plane and taken to a terminal and then to the “baggage reclaim conveyor belts,” where you can grab it, according to Alternative Airlines.

The video ends with Thomas’ bag being stacked on a cart along with other suitcases from the same flight
