- Check if xfce4-panel is running. If not, start it using your user, just 'xfce4-panel' in a terminal window. That might do it.
- Remove ~/.config, log out, then log back in. That might do it. It might be overkill. Instead you might try deleting ~/.config/xfce4/panel, then log out and back in.
- Check ~/.config/xfce4/panel for a file named panel.xml. If you have one, delete it. Create a new one using this content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE config SYSTEM "config.dtd">
<panels>
<panel>
<properties>
<property name="size" value="27"/>
<property name="monitor" value="0"/>
<property name="screen-position" value="10"/>
<property name="fullwidth" value="1"/>
<property name="xoffset" value="0"/>
<property name="yoffset" value="996"/>
<property name="handlestyle" value="0"/>
<property name="autohide" value="0"/>
<property name="transparency" value="25"/>
<property name="activetrans" value="0"/>
</properties>
<items>
<item name="xfce4-menu" id="5"/>
<item name="separator" id="6"/>
<item name="launcher" id="10"/>
<item name="launcher" id="11934103341"/>
<item name="launcher" id="11934284041"/>
<item name="actions" id="12"/>
<item name="separator" id="11934162861"/>
<item name="tasklist" id="11934220980"/>
<item name="datetime" id="11934096510"/>
</items>
</panel>
</panels>
Then log out and back in and the panels might reappear.

XFCE4 panel recovery
Every now and then the xfce4 panel will disappear. There are a number of bugs about this, but few solutions. I've gathered them here.
