phatman Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Much of the following was obtained from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). They have quite an informative website @ www.TSATravelTips.usWhen travelling: DO Leave all checked bags unlocked in case a TSA search of the bag is required. Use zip ties or cables instead of locking checked bags. Some airports provide free tamper-evident seals. Place personal items in clear plastic bags for easy identification. Pack all sharp objects such as scissors and pocketknives in check baggage only DO NOT Pack food items in checked baggage as they can set off false alarms. Stack books in a pile in checked baggage - spread them out. Pack film in checked baggage - Explosive detection machines will damage film. Soon the TSA will require passengers at all US airports to obtain boarding passes prior to clearing the terminal security checkpoint. Travelers can check the TSA website for a current list of airports requireing boarding passes.Most major airlines have developed and implemented online check-in. US Air is the latest airline to do so. Check-in is available from 6 hours up to 90 minutes prior to flight departure. Please check with your respective carrier's website for more information.

hotcheme Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 i was flying around a lot last year and the only thing i found about airport security is that every airport is enforcing a different policy and it changes every week. a total irritation..but on the other hand, you should have seen some of the whacky shit i have taken on carry on post - sept-11.

phatman Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Just for the record....Aly should be concerned...last year was the worst year I have yet to witness in terms of lost luggage and lost items during over seas travel. My advice this year to many has been to either pack your valuables in your carry-on or ship them in advance - with insurance....it usually wont happen this time of the year and it does pertain to specific airlines...but in the summer, when millions of tourists are coming through, you can be sure that you're being targeted....so proceed with caution...
