案例参考:一哥们托运行李相机被盗的索赔过程

网上看到的,这哥们相机放行李里被偷了,郁闷中坚持不懈,发现他相机在ebay上被人
销赃,结果获取证据,把这小偷给抓到了,还解雇逮捕起诉了。

这里面有N多和TSA, Delta之间的真实通讯记录,我还没仔细看完,但是觉得极有参考价
值,建议打印收藏。


Man Tracks Down And Gets Prosecuted Baggage Handler Who Stole His Camera,Delta Still Won’t Refund

Inside, find a treasure trove of documentation, showing his correspondence
with Delta, the TSA, Port Authority police services, the New Jersey
prosecutor’s office, and the winning bidder on his camera on eBay…

有什么办法防止行李被盗吗,可以考虑在行李里放把枪,不是开玩笑,这个另类解决办法有其道理:

Weapons that travel MUST be in a hard case, must be declared upon check-in, and MUST BE LOCKED by a TSA official.

A “weapons” is defined as a rifle, shotgun, pistol, airgun, and STARTER PISTOL. Yes, starter pistols - those little guns that fire blanks at track and swim meets - are considered weapons…and do NOT have to be registered in any state in the United States.

I have a starter pistol for all my cases. All I have to do upon check-in is tell the airline ticket agent that I have a weapon to declare…I’m given a little card to sign, the card is put in the case, the case is given to a TSA official who takes my key and locks the case, and gives my key back to me.

That’s the procedure. The case is extra-tracked…TSA does not want to lose a weapons case. This reduces the chance of the case being lost to virtually zero.

It’s a great way to travel with camera gear…I’ve been doing this since Dec 2001 and have had no problems whatsoever.
