Thanks for your response Sanjay and Sasural. FYI, the only reason it was Qatar and not AMerican airways was because it was an office planned and sponsored official tour in which there is not much choice to ahe preferred mode of travel.
Anyway, I have now a confirmation from Qatar that the Luggage is absolutely untraceable for them and We can file for insurance claim. Irrespective of when it gets settled actually, just for the love of my fav films, their Region coded Blu Rays in any part of the world and Indian cinema as a whole, i am now again looking out for someone coming from USA again to India so I can have the player.
So please let me know / pm me if any of you all guys travel frequently between India and USA and if you can help my get an Oppo bdp-80 .....again
. I will be greatful to you for ever.
