This prevents malicious people from stealing your belongings. Indeed, putting a padlock is often not enough to deter thieves. 2. This makes it more difficult to introduce illicit substances into your luggage. 3. Filming your suitcase at home allows you to make significant savings. If you pack your suitcase at the airport, airlines will ask you between €12 and €16 per suitcase. Whereas if you buy yourself a roll of pallet film (250m), you can wrap 10 suitcases for around ten euros, or 1 euro per suitcase. It's unbeatable in terms of value for money! 4. You also fight against certain dishonest practices that can quickly become expensive. Sometimes ground staff do not always show their credentials. In 2015, a scandal broke out in the Philippines at Manila airport. Air traffic control (OTS) employees were putting handgun bullets in tourists' luggage. The said tourists were taken into custody and had to pay large sums to be released. ► How to wrap your suitcase by yourself and in record time? Simply place your suitcase horizontally and unroll the film around the body of the suitcase. Little by little, you move the film up towards the handle of the suitcase. Be careful not to film the wheels of the suitcase. Regarding the handle, you can film it but remember to cut it out using scissors or a small knife. ► What type of film should you use? We recommend an opaque film. Generally, the film used to wrap pallets is perfect. It is also inexpensive. The Triplast brand works well (transparent stretch film for pallets 400 mm x 250 m), it is the one we used in the video: https://amzn.to/39Lrod4 You will find more details on our article on luggage protection here: https://valise-avion.fr/protection If you want to promote ecology and favor reusable products, you can opt for a suitcase cover or protector: https://valise-avion.fr/protection/ho...
