Posted January 19, 201312 yr TSA strikes again. Apparently X-ray (or whatever they run it through) is not enough. Once again, for the 3rd time in a row now, they have wrecked havoc on, in my bag. No regard for your stuff. Yank it out, stuff it back. It honestly looked like they had dumped it upside down and stuffed everything back in. Pockets were left open..... 3 broken zipper handles.... Trust me when I tell you they don't give a sh*t. Starting to think the extreme expense of FedX might be worth it. Flyer Beware!!! Edited January 19, 201312 yr by idrive
January 19, 201312 yr Author No liability from their side with the damages Jeff? Nope. just your word against theirs. Their arrogance and attitude is beyond incredible. . Edited January 19, 201312 yr by idrive
January 19, 201312 yr "TSA has established guiding principles to maintain the security of the traveling public and continuously set the standard for excellence in transportation security." Guess they really just focus on security and stuff everything else.. Google is littered with incidents omg.
January 19, 201312 yr I particularly love the rampant criminal organizations that have sprung up. Drug trafficking, thievery, misc smuggling. I feel really secure with them guarding me.
January 19, 201312 yr That is pure BS. I would be mad as hell. Sorry this happened Idrive, what a PITA. Not sure about other airlines but American Airlines will NOT cover any damages if you do not use a hard shell travel case. Edited January 19, 201312 yr by Baddmnkey
January 19, 201312 yr that sucks! zippers aren't covered by most airlines anyways. it's in the damned "fine print". when traveling with my clubs, i always ask to witness the tsa inspection and that seems to have worked so far. it takes an extra few minutes but well worth it.
January 19, 201312 yr TSA went through a Club glove with the stiff arm. They went through everything and when they put it back they shortened the stiff arm and all it was protecting was the wedges. When we got back I spoke to a Supervisor, same as talking to a rock.

I didn't know that. I'm going to do that. TSA went through a Club glove with the stiff arm. They went through everything and when they put it back they shortened the stiff arm and all it was protecting was the wedges. When we got back I spoke to a Supervisor, same as talking to a rock. This is almost EXACTLY my story.including the stiff arm.
January 20, 201312 yr I just won't travel with any of my good JDM stuff. I have a back up set of decent clubs for traveling.
