I've seen these before--only two problems I see:

1. The TSA and similar have no sense of humor if they decide to be offended, which can lead to you being flagged for extra special searches designed to delay your movements;

2. Chances are (and more likely) these stickers will stay on just as well as a TSA-approved lock does going through Security and then baggage handling.

Yeah, but it's fun to think about! One of the stickers reminds me of a hilarious Drew Carey Show episode....

Dan, I couldn't get your link to work - I got a "bad request" message.???

Wow....I didn't think it was possible to have less of a sense of humor than our own airport officials.

Imagine the cost of the analysis of my actions after i arrive in SC this Thursday having been picked up with what appears to be a diminutive air-hostess stowed in my hold luggage!
:D
Thanks to my recent purchase of humorous suitcase stickers.......... :cool1:

I had not traveled with a weapon since before 9/11. I recently flew DFW to California, then to DC and back to DFW - checking a couple of my favorites in my bag.

Very easy - very low-key, airline and TSA personnel were respectful, efficient and obviously used to dealing with this.

Just a thought - get a starter pistol - or, for that matter just a couple of boxes of your favorite ammo and put it in your bag as directed by TSA - I got a "Priority sticker" on my bag, and was able to double lock the gun case inside a locked suitcase. No sign of tampering, my bag got where I was going - and were among the first off.

Obviously useful only for domestic US travel.

No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. And no dolphin who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands can be considered normal.
