Awesome Link To Article On In-Flight Theft... Knowledge is power!
Someone sent this link to me on Facebook. I honestly never thought of In-Flight theft... Imagine when something comes up missing from our bags? We blame either the airport baggage handlers or maybe the resort staff when we get back... Hmmmm. There are some good tips included near the end on keeping your stuff....

Good to know info . Thanks

Interesting article - I guess I'm not as trusting as most people - I would never put my camera, cash or passport overhead
Re: Awesome Link To Article On In-Flight Theft... Knowledge is power!
I never put anything in the overhead bins. My carry-on is a small bag that I keep between my feet or under the seat in front of me.

while going thru security in miami last year, a man's laptop was stolen while he walking thru the xray machine deal.
the laptop made it thru security before he did.
i really felt for him.
now i make it a point not to lose eye contact with my electronics unless they're going thru the scanner.

Great information! There is a false sense of security in thinking you are in a closed invironment and no one would try to leave with you possessions. I know I have left my purse on the floor,under the seat while going to the restroom! Won't be doing that anymore. Thanks Smokin Kevan
Re: Awesome Link To Article On In-Flight Theft... Knowledge is power!
I guess I am lucky. I leave my stuff right on the seat and don't even think about it. I trust everyone too much!

You are probably more likely to get robbed on vacation by a tourist rather than a local. you are likely to get robbed by a fellow traveller - even in flight!!! On the return flight from a class trip to Europe, the main teacher with my daughter's class had his passport stolen while in flight. Now, thankfully, there are many passport checks BEFORE you board, so they knew he had passed with his passport through all those checkpoints and had it when he boarded the aircraft. But somebody nicked it in flight! And just mosied on off the aircraft and into the the crowd with it .... And, as he found out when he landed, it is more common than you think. My passport and valuables stay on my shoulder in my totally amazing Bagalinni travel purse! Lightweight, lots of space; zippers galore inside; practically nick-proof! Be wise. Be safe.
