A Yale University student from Ohio filed a lawsuit seeking $1 million from US Airways for a video game console that he said was taken from his luggage, according to the Associated Press.

Jesse Maiman, 21, alleged that during a flight from New Haven, Conn., to Cincinnati last December, his Xbox 360 with a specialized hard drive disappeared from his luggage.

Maiman said that he got "an unconscionable run-around" from the airline, and is seeking $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.
