The photograph on the above right shows 244 locks collected from under an airport baggage handling conveyor belt (where two belts come together), over a one-month period at a single New York airport. Depending on the bag design, the strategic use of duct/gaffer's tape (to prevent locks from dangling) can reduce the likelihood of this sort of mishap.

About to fly to SF and I'm gonna need this webpage. THANK YOU MEMESTREAMS YOU MAKE MY FLYING LIFE BETTER.
