When the family is going on a trip and going by airplane, luggage can be lost or detained. So, when packing have each family member pack some items of other family members so if it does happen you will all have a change of clothes.
Make sure to also place a large piece of paper inside your bags with your name, address, and phone number(s) you can be reached at. That's how the airlines found my lost luggage in St Louis when I was headed from Omaha, NE, to Korea via LAX (don't ask, it's a long story).
