Lost Baggage

**DO NOT LEAVE YOUR BAGGAGE UNATTENDED WHILE TRAVELING**

If your baggage does not arrive at O’Hare Airport, please make sure to report your missing luggage to the airline and give this as your address:

The Morris Inn
1399 N Notre Dame Ave
South Bend, IN 46617

The Morris Inn is right across the street from the McKenna Conference Center, and thus the above address is the best place for the airline to send your luggage.
