Locking Luggage - cable ties question
I know someone is going to say the opposite but, I seriously doubt if the
guys that are going to take the time to rummage through my bag in a air terminal would want my old shoes or suit jacket. If they do want to look through my bag, a small lock or cable tie isn't going to stop anyone. "Jean O'Boyle" wrote in message ... "Rich Cacace" richcacace-REMOVE TO wrote in message t... I'd really like to know what valuables everyone is carrying in their checked luggage that make them have lock or cable tie their bags. All of our "good stuff" goes with us at all times - jewelry, camera, cash, liquor, etc. What else is left but shirts, socks & underwear so why bother to even lock the bag? If anyone wants to get in the bag they'll just snip the lock anyway. Hey Rich, Spoken like a man! ;-) How about all the formal attire for everyone and the duzo pairs of shoes, not to mention the semi-formal nights depending on the cruise line and length of cruise? --Jean |

Locking Luggage
We flew out of Fairbanks recently, and they required us to remove the locks
before checking bags. When we got them back the screeners had sealed the bags with plastic ties after searching them. The ties were the type that had to be cut off. I was unhappy to have to check unlocked bags, but somewhat mollified by their sealing them after searching them. Joan |

Answer me one thing....What good does it do to file a complaint after
discovering something is missing?? Do you get reimbursed? "CupCaked" wrote in message ...

Hans is still fuming about his electric shaver, stolen from our small toiletries case at an airport back in the mid '90s. He's used cable ties since then. Karen |
