I'm not sure what you mean. Like at an airport? If you mean a place where you get your luggage after you land at an airport we call it "baggage claim" Baggage and luggage in a context like this mean basically the same thing.

@HebrewDane oh yeh, I mean an airport or a harbor
so, you will use neither luggage hall nor baggage to refer a place where you get your baggage?

@Arvin_Chiang I don't know what they call it for a shipping port. I've never taken a ship. At the airport we say baggage claim, as I said. But if you said "hall' I doubt anyone would say anything. Let me check up on what they call it at a port. I'll get back to you.

@Arvin_Chiang I just looked up the Port of Seattle and they say "baggage claim" too. I guess it's the standard over here. Not something I really thought about much.
