Baggage lost

I was flying Etihad from Dhaka to London. One of my two checked-in baggages did not arrive and has been declared 'lost' (since it has been over 3 weeks). What are the kinds of compensations I can get from the airline?

I suggest you ask them.
The legal minimum they must pay is set out in the Warsaw Convention, and if I remember correctly it is something like ten pence for each kilogram that your suitcase weighed. It is probable that they will choose to pay a bit more than this, but they are not obliged to do so.0 -
I saw somewhere they will pay $30 per Kg, but as above, ask them.

Claim through your contents insurance. They paid out for all my stuff after I lost a case coming back from the Far East0
