Default Flying with checked in camera gear

I have covered this on two different photographers nets/groups.

The short story is that Delta Air Lines has not changed its policy of one
carry on and one personal bag. It will not adopt the TSAA guidelines to
allow another bag just for photo gear..

Good light to all

I did hear now that the TSA and FAA will allow photographers to bring an
extra carry on on the plane with them now. SO now you can bring one carry
on, one personal, and a photo bag. So maybe you can fit more on with you.

Also on the locks... I travel 90% of the time for my nonphotography job

and
have never had a problem. I do not lock anything now but I also don't

check
anything that I can't live without.

And one last thought.. Locks only keep honest people honest. It they want

it
they will find a way to get it..

After 9/11 the TSA asked that checked luggage be left unlocked so they

could
inspect it, which meant the contents were more vulnerable to theft. I

always
locked my cases carrying tripods, heads and other such gear anyway and

have
never had a lock cut, but I'm still happy to learn the TSA has approved

a
new
class of lock which they can open if need be.

See here for details ...

or
if
anyone has the official TSA site with info on these please post it.
