She returned from a tourist trip to Italy and discovered the surprise in her travel bags
An American woman returning from a tourist trip to Italy did not expect to find student food in her travel bags, instead of gifts she carefully chose and bought for her family and friends.
After arriving home, Gina Sheldon was surprised to find dog food inside her bags, instead of gifts worth thousands of dollars.
Gina Sheldon, from New Hampshire, USA, told ABC that she had returned from a trip to Europe, only to find that all the gifts she had bought there had disappeared upon her return home.
She said: "I opened the third bag in which I kept all the gifts and things I also bought for myself, and they were exchanged for dog food, an old shirt and a bottle of shaving cream."
Sheldon had spent 11 days traveling through Italy, and stopped in the French capital, Paris, on her way back home.
She believes the gifts may have been exchanged in the luggage area at Charles de Gaulle Airport in France.
She noted that the missing gifts cost more than $3,000.
The passenger flight was booked by American "Delta", but managed by Air France.
In a statement, Delta confirmed that it had positively contacted its partners in Air France and passengers to reach a satisfactory solution.
