◆  Most People Are Honest but it Only Takes a Few Bad Apples to Ruin Your Day – The statistics on airport theft can be surprising.  While most people at airports are simply trying to get from point A to point B, a relatively small number of thieves can end up stealing quite a few possessions. Take JFK international airport for example.  An investigation in 2012 found that there are over 200 thefts at this airport every single day.  ◆  Airline Compensation Doesn’t Always Cut It - Many passengers assume that airlines will compensate them for any items which go missing during their trip.  Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case.  Passengers with missing items valued over $150.00 have to show “provable loss” by providing a receipt.  Do you have the original receipt for all of your valuable items such a jewelry or expensive suits?◆  Some Things Can’t be Replaced – My husband loves to take pictures when our family goes on vacation.  He uses a portable hard drive to store these pictures when the storage card on his camera gets full.  The cost of hard drive is small but the memories stored on it are priceless.  There are many items we travel with that have a personal value to us that can’t be replaced.  The same can be said about work related information.◆  Carry-on Luggage is No Exception – Most travelers put their high value items in their carry-on luggage.  This carry-on luggage, whether it’s a small suitcase or backpack, is especially vulnerable after arriving at your final destination.  Will you be taking a crowded bus or subway to your hotel? Thieves know that people traveling from the airport to a hotel will likely have expensive goods in their backpacks or carry-on suitcases.  It makes a great deal of sense to secure these bags with TSA approved luggage locks during the final leg of your trip.
