A long time ago I put a camcorder in my luggage on Aeromexico and it was gone when I returned from Cancun. I learned my lesson fast.Your just asking for trouble if you put anything in your bags that they can steal.

I nearly ruined a perfectly good Samsonite suitcase on a flight from John Wayne airport to ZLO Manzanillo airport. All I did was put a dozen scalpel sharp utility knife blades in an outside pocket and zip it up. It took a good inch of Tricloro dish soap and a flood of cold water to clean the blood off.

I allways ziptie my bags shut. You can also use the TSA locks. Its not going to stop them but it will take them longer to deal with so maybe they will look at the next bag!

Sorry that happened. Thanks for the heads up.

Miss the old days when we could each take just one carry-on bag .

YEARS AGO i filmed some explosive testing at China Lake on a high speed 16mm camera. In my rush to catch my flight out of LAX back to DC I checked it with the film still in it. Saw it go on cnveyer at LAX but it never came off at Dulles. Camera value +$1000; clasified film inside almost 10 years in prison according to the CIA
