[QUOTE="Mikem, post: 15493, member: 29"] Here's my observations from working in the airline industry. Your mileage may vary. Anything of value I would take on your carry-on bag. Things have a way of growing legs and jumping out of your bags when it comes to the TSA searching checked bags, especially since you cannot lock your baggage up. Also keep an eye on them when they search your carry on baggage. It is a major problem with the TSA and stolen goods that they do not like to admit to the public. If you lose it they will "not" reimburse you. I have a next door neighbor here in Phoenix who use to be the Human Resources Manager for the TSA here in Arizona and he used to tell me all of the horror stories of the amount of people they would have to walk out the door because of theft. According to him it is even worse on the East Coast. Tampers I would put in my checked baggage. Lighters are suppose to be okay for carry on now but even then, no torch lighters. If they do not recognize what kind of lighter it is they will confiscate it. Stick with matches or buy a cheap throw away when you get to your destination. [/QUOTE]
