Aug 7th, 2008 at 11:00AM: "Ma'am," said the TSA agent as he stared at the screen in disbelief.
I gulped. Oh no, here we go, I thought, as I stood in line and watched him sitting on the stool inspecting my bag on the screen in front of him. I smiled a friendly smile and tried to act nonchalant, as if I hadn't been dreading this moment all day. Man, I knew this was going to happen!
The TSA agent looked at me, and back at ...Airport reminder: Do not check-in people!
Jul 25th, 2008 at 10:00AM: Authorities at Sweden's Bromma Airport didn't find it funny or entertaining when they were made the scapegoats of a stunt by private television station Kanal 5. A heavy bag was brought to the check-in counter and during procedures, the bag was opened and a dwarf hopped out. A hidden crew was filming the incident, expecting to get a crazy reaction to the situation, something that could be aired on ...Galley Gossip: Flight Attendant Pet Peeve #3: You want me to do what?

You've packed the bag. Actually what you did was stuff it full, and then most likely you had to sit on it while you zipped...the thing...up...there! You did it, you actually got that thing closed! You feel good, you really do, because you are not going to pay that ridiculous checked bag fee for the life of you. No freakin way!
Then you dragged that bag to the car and somehow managed to ...Galley Gossip: Traveling with children: a few suggestions...

There he is, the little monster. Yes, he's an adorable little monster, but a monster nonetheless. Whether he's traveling with you or he's headed toward you, either way, he's on the flight with you. Near you. I feel for you. Really, I do.
Traveling sucks, most of you will agree, but what's even worse than traveling is traveling with children, even when it's your own kid you're traveling with. ...Despite What You May Have Thought Previously, The TravelSafe Does Not Suck
May 16th, 2007 at 4:59PM: I learned about PacSafe's TravelSafe a few weeks ago. Thinking it looked like a glorified fanny pack, I moved on. Yesterday, however, the folks at Backpackers reviewed the TravelSafe, and they concluded it was both "pretty simple" and "very handy." I think I may have been wrong.
Featuring a slashproof skin and a high-tensile stainless steel cable with a padlock that cinches tight, the TravelSafe ...Stolen Luggage Found in Houston Trash Bin
Dec 29th, 2006 at 12:14PM: Um, this bothers me. A LOT. According to this story found in the Seattle Times, 68 suitcases which were taken from George Bush International Airport were found outside of a pet store dumpster in Houston earlier this week. The stolen baggage apparently came from nine different airlines and from destinations such as France, UAE, and domestic locations. Investigators are trying to determine now if it ...OGIO Terminal Bag
Aug 25th, 2006 at 10:13AM: Not long ago in the past I was one of the nastiest impulse buyers to walk the planet Earth. (Nasty as in overdoing it and buying way beyond my means. Not belching and burping while shopping.) I waited for nothing. Did research on nada product , but these days I'm a changed woman. In fact, I'm such the opposite that I sit too long trying to make a decision about something I know I'll want. Take the ...
