A Correct answer
Explanation

'Luggage' is an uncountable noun in English, so it takes a singular verb. The sentence 'Some of the luggage has not yet arrived' correctly uses 'has' (singular) to agree with the singular subject 'luggage.' While 'some' can be used with both countable and uncountable nouns, the verb must agree with the noun it modifies - here, 'luggage' is uncountable.
