re: Airport Theft!!!

Graham, don't know about BA but Thomson are not allowing ski boots in hand luggage, not sure about soft snowboard boots, someone said if they have boa (metal cable lace) they are only allowed in check in luggage.

re: Airport Theft!!!

I've been told that my boots have to go as hand luggage by Crystal!

re: Airport Theft!!!

Bit confusing, I recently flew Bristol/Innsbruck, definitely no ski boots allowed on any flights as hand luggage signs up all over airport check in.

re: Airport Theft!!!

we went a few weeks ago and they would not let you threw air port securaty with boots made to go back to check in and put them in as luggage

re: Airport Theft!!!

I had a Swiss Army knife go missing from the end pocket of my holdall on the way back from Plovdiv last year, my fault really did not put it in the lockable compartment. Secret is if it's valuable either put it in hand luggage if it's not on the banned list, or put it in the lockable part of your luggage.

re: Airport Theft!!!

re: Airport Theft!!!

Liza - was that because they were in boot bags and obvious as I was thinking of sticking mine in my son's little suitcase which he takes on as hand luggage....do you think I will get away with it that way. Where/ who did you fly from/with?

re: Airport Theft!!!

Liza, all hand luggage is x-rayed, hope your not making a small boy lug heavy ski boots through airport

re: Airport Theft!!!
