Unclaimed refunds and baggage left from Demise of PAA

Hello every one and my good friends I worked with at PAN AM. I have received some very interesting comments and info on the day our PAN AM collasped back in 1991 from PAA passengers who were either in flight without knowing PAN AM ceased operations around the globe or were booked to fly on PAA flights that day. There were incidents where baggage was not claimed or property couldn't be returned to PAX Yet today passengers are still looking for there belongings or trying to refund there tickets. "WOW" Such along time ago years gone by since the demise of our airline I thought people would have solved there disputes by now?? How ever I have being in contact with the adminstrators who had taken over the recovery of PAN AM who have stated any person or persons who can provide proof or documentation that they paid or booked a PAA flight on that day which is paper tickets can contact them how ever there is no garrentte of a refund for tickets. Its only good as a memorey. Secondly as for personal belogings unclaimed I am sure most of this was recovered and back tracked to the passenger and returned. How ever if its still missing even though you have your tickets you have little chance of ever seeing these again as the adminstrators aren't responsable for loss of personal effects. There was how ever some unclaimed items which couldn't be collected or who they belong to as passengers as in a lot of cases today don't put ID tags on baggage so how is the airline suppose to know who it really belongs to..At JFK some baggage was stored for a year but nobody came forward to collect it so it was auctioned off. But with out a smile on our faces I don't think the auction amount wouldn't have paid off the 747 fleet finances or parking spaces at MARINA Pinal air park or Roswell or Majove?? I suggest to those trying to attempt a claim you contact the Liquidators of PAN AM Good Luck & God Speed to you. Smile and say hello to PAN AM when you confront them. Take Care folks---
