Oh I agree with that. I think the change in rules indicates TSA is much less concerned about thievery than they are their own convenience.JALLEN wrote:...
The Southwest website says "Only the Customer checking the luggage should retain the key or combination to the lock. No exceptions will be made."
Anybody can get a TSA key or combo, the cheesiest locks known to man, so I deem it that Southwest means a non-TSA lock.
Like most things left to government, it soon becomes a farce of incompetent buffoonery. If you want your gun to actually stay locked up, forget TSA locks.
I wonder if Southwest's verbiage is left over from when fed regs did require a single key/combo holder.
