Just tape this sign to the outside of your suitcase.................

[Jonty30]

Or put a note.
“Hunter Bidon’s luggage.”

I have done this for many years. I use an extra luggage strap to secure the bag from coming open. It has the additional advantage of making the bag distinctive.

As I almost always have a firearm in the checked bag, it already gets all the extra attention.

Interesting tidbit re: the density of marzipan mimicking that of explosives!

[ClearCase_guy]

If I tie a ribbon on the bag, that makes it impossible for them to scan it in an automated system?

What?

Stupid computer

I put colored duct tape on the corners. Problem solved.

In 2012, on a flight from NYC, I noticed all checked baggage looked just like mine. So I tied a red bandana around the handle. Upon landing I noticed how many of those coming up still looked just like mine, wondering if the bandana had gotten removed. Finally here it came! Bandana and all.

“Ribbons that people tie onto their suitcases to help identify them can cause issues with the bag being scanned in the baggage hall,” he told RSVP Live.

How?

Lol, I was gonna say that if folks want to get to their .uggage quickly “just fil. Your luggage with drugs, you will be reunited with it Pronto upon arriving at airport”

Put your puss on your luggage!

So now everyone simply accepts that your personal items in your luggage on airlines are in danger of being searched and stolen, and everyone is like “Meh. whatever. To reduce the chance, don’t do this or that.”

Just another marker on the slow, steady decline of America and our expectations for it.

All these rules and regulations now - having to remove your shoes, getting scanned and often patted down, waiting in long lines, having airline employees rifle through your personal belongings - has made air travel a miserable experience - not to mention the planes themselves, usually dirty, overcrowded and with little breathing room in the small seats.

“Don’t ever pack marzipan in your luggage. It has the same density as some explosives, so your bag will be removed and you’ll be called from the plane for a bag search,”

Good to know, though I never have, and seriously doubt I ever will, go anywhere with marzipan (that stuff is foul!).

‘Tie a little ribbon on the old lug-gage
if you want to trigger rage
in this modern woke- age

If I see a little ribbon, I will stomp on your pack
throw it to the back, you won’t ever get it back’

Neon orange duct tape and lots of it. I can see my luggage a mile away!

Dense fudge shows up as explosives.

On a side note the airlines charge a hefty checked baggage fee. They should offer something in return like free WiFi, extra frequent flier miles, etc… I used to check my luggage a lot in the past but it’s hard wear and tear on the luggage too which has also become very pricey.

Put you stuff in a box and ship it couple days ahead UPS, so that all you need is a small hand carry.

“Don’t ever pack marzipan in your luggage. It has the same density as some explosives, so your bag will be removed and you’ll be called from the plane for a bag search,” the Dublin baggage expert said.

So then I shouldn't pack that block of silly putty that was a gift for my nephew?
