(and lately they've added, damage caused by TSA procedures (ie they broke the lock on your suitcase)
Each airline's website should have it pretty well document, but it's generally for lost baggage, I can't tell whether it includes stuff removed from your bag - because honestly, how do you prove it, but it's worth filing a claim anyhow.
YOu can buy extra baggage insurance at the airport when you check your bag, but you have to ask for it, and there's probably paperwork to fill out.

You have to love how the big corps protect themselves by basically having small print to counteract the whole thing they are saying they are protecting you from. I mean, come on, they have insurance for baggage but then say in small print "does not apply to baggage, or in anyway does buying this insurance mean you have insurance. HA! Makes me laugh.
