A Yale University student from Ohio has filed a lawsuit seeking $1 million from US Airways for a video game console he says was taken from his luggage.
Jesse Maiman, 21, from suburban Cincinnati, filed the suit Monday in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court.
He alleges that during a flight from New Haven, Conn., to Cincinnati in December, his Xbox 360 with a specialized hard drive disappeared from his luggage.
Maiman says he got what he called "an unconscionable run-around" from the airline. He's asking $1,700 for the loss of the gaming system and for the maximum damages allowable, or $1 million.
A US Airways spokeswoman said the airline was unaware of the suit but noted that the government limits liability for lost luggage to $3,300 per bag.

this may seem a bit of an extreme but i think we have all been on the end of the run around from "customer service" before and i appreciate that he is willing to really fight back.
