luggage
What happens when you see what you think is a piece of unattended baggage, but actually the baggage is being attended, except the person who’s attending it is doing so from inside the baggage? It’s a grey area, and Richard dedomenici likes to work in grey areas. This particular grey area is outside the US Embassy in Berlin.

The level of thoroughness of security screening for checked in luggage depends upon many things.
1. Which airport?
2. What time of day?
3. What is the current security level established by HomeLandSecurity?
1. The busier the airport, the more luggage, the less time to x-ray and examine thoroughly. The larger airports are more likely to have explosive "sniffers." In short, more equipment, more personel, less time.
2. There are times during a day when clusters of flights all want to depart within minutes of each other. Less time to screen checked luggage.
3. Self-explanatory. If authorities say security risk is low, then interest is low.
Is it possible to smuggle a bomb on board an airplane in checked luggage? With the layered security approach it is less likely that you can. The danger is that some employee-having greater access-might cooperate with a terrorist.
All luggage is treated equally. And thats bad. I bought a brand new high quality piece of luggage for a trip to Greece. On the way there, one zipper tag was pulled off and on the way back the other was pulled off, rendering it useless for future vacations. The luggage handlers arent going to say "be careful…its Louis Vuitton". Theyre going to toss it into the cargo with all the nameless black bags. Luggage needs to be DURABLE NOT designer.
My luggage is a converted fiberglass toolcase modified to take the shoulder strap from a Sony BetaCam Camera and it's nearly indestructable… and it fits under the seat in ANY airliner.
You DO know the airlines are charging for baggages now…. right?… typically $15 ro $25 for the first bag… $50 to $100 for the second bag and $150 or more for the third bag… and that will probably go up in the future.
