millerboy88 Posted March 26, 2008 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Can you still secure your luggage with zip ties or do you have to have the approved locks. I really don't care if they go into the bags, I just use the zip ties to keep the zippers from coming open during travel. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not be there when you get your luggage back, though. Depends on whether or not whoever may get in your bags puts new ones on to replace the originals.

millerboy88 Posted March 26, 2008 Author #4 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Ok thanks, that is what I was planning on doing and have done in the past, but wasn't sure since all the new flight rules have come about. I usually pack a pair of nail clippers in an outside pouch of my luggage:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayscore Posted March 27, 2008 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Ive even used pipe cleaners. Now that they allow small nail clippers, I'll use zip ties for the air, and use my TSA locks for the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yittles&boone Posted March 27, 2008 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2008 we used zipties from Ny to Miami and they clipped the ties to check the luggage, put a note inside that the bag was inspected and put another set of zipties on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
