Fuck bag checkers

So I just came back from a Europe trip for 3 weeks where I skied in switzerland. I packed my bag the night before I left. I checked my bag and when I got home I got a note saying "we searched your bag" blah blah blah in the bag. And my cbars are missing. I had them before I left. The bag was in my sights until I got i checked. They were the most valubale thing in there cause my more valuable stuff was in my carry on. SO, fuck bag checkers. Theyll steal your shit
 
i always get those notes in my ski bag after i've been in the mountains. i've been told it's because i've skied over blasted snow and the new bomb sniffers they have in the airports now a days flag my bags because of it.
 
So, next time do what you did with most of the valuables and put it in carry on. Or just wear them on to the damn plane.
 
Word, checked a bad in NY and computer went missing. Live and learn. What do you expect from minimum wage
 
huh, that actually makes a lot of sense. i always assumed my ski luggage was searched because it was larger than normal luggage and things could be hidden more easily.
 
My uncle got his Nikon d70 stolen off of him in Mexico city. I didn't realize how often this happens
 
He's the closest thing since the true Kangbang's absence. He WILL do what Kangbang has done, contrary to popular belief.
 
u slow? tsa can cut/take your locks off at any time, thats why ur supose ro use tsa cert locks that they have a key for-so they dont cut your lock, you give up all rights when flying its simple
 
For next time, if you pay for the basic trip insurance (something like $30-$60) If anything is stolen on you trip, you simply file a report and they will replace it.

It's very much worth it if your traveling with anything you'd be sad to see go.
 
was just about to say, this especially flying international. paying a little extra in that case would be well worth it.
 
That's a total crock of shit.

It is far more likely that they have a high rate of success in busting skiers for various items that it makes sense to develop a bullshit reason to search you.
 
i don't know. i always check my suitcase with my skis, but have never had my suitcase searched. just my ski bag - several times. you'd think they'd check both if they had an ulterior motive.
 
Use a lock. And get a tsa certified one. It's not the tsa that is stealing your stuff, it's the baggage handlers that put it on the plane and unload it. The tsa will open it, check the contents, and re lock it before they send it off
