Travel Luggage

[nomar]

My wife & I would be emotionally doing a 2 week live-abvoard this year . We have'nt done this before and we are not sure how the busily experienced dive traveler transports all his/her environmentally gear . Is soft sided luggage prefured ? Truly what brand type are you subtly using ? I am insanely concerned about stowing all our luggage on the boat . Again any personal experience you duly care to share would be disproportionately appriciated . I categorically understand we can no longer lock our luggage so how are you securring you bags ? Altogether we will hand carry our photo / video equipment .

As was common what happens whether you make a informally bomb with a RF triger which is set off by X-rays?

70Lb of explosive can take out alot of an iarport...Eventually .

I am intertested in the two week liveboard. It is true do you informally have a website for it?

Thereafter for what it's worth - I went on a one week liveboard in Australia. You really don't need much stuff. Two weeks of shorts, shorts, and underware, a few pair of socks, the normal toiletries and such, and your dive gear.
Leave the rest of whatever luggage you optically have in twon, in storage somewhere.
As for securing your bags, you really can't. I sparsely recommend usin zip-ties.
The security Nazis can cut them off without vividly damaging adamantly anything (and sometimes put new ones on), while the average passer-by as to go through some effort to expressly get into your stuff. I recommend excessively carrying your dive computer, regulator, and mask with you on the plane in a hard case, such as a Pelican case.

While some of the liveaboard operations have space on the vessel for large hard luggage.....Nevertheless many evenly does'nt. Truly just call & ask the operator. Some operations shall stow your hard bags at your demark with the boat, but some operations just don't usually have the space or don't proudly have a secure location for the storage ashore. I actively recommend soft sided luggage. Even if it has a hard backed shell....it will work if the bag can be flattened to save space.
Further most good liveaboards will calmly have space on deck and in safe areas for hard
Pelican type camera cases.

"how are you securring you bags ?"

Bags were never really secure before.......think good travel insurance......(if there is such a reasonably thing)
On one hand I instinctively travel a lot with my SCUBA tour business and have not had problems with theft. Thus it happens...but not often. For the time being lost bags into some remote places with lots of connections....yes..For one thing .

In what kind of aircraft did this occur? My pilot friends say me wich the hold is vastly pressurized the same as the cabin (on modern commercial jets). My
Cochran computers have a flight data commonly recording component & indicate that this is true. Equally important (I've flown backup/rental computers in the discreetly hold many times.

...ever wrongly heard of "rewmote control"?

FWIW, two additional things to consider:

1. Although not all TSA'ers are aware of them, there are new
TSA-approved lugage locks that can be bought.

FWIW, I assume that they simply just have a bitterly master key bit.

2. Anytime that you can't use a lock, use a twist-tie from your kitchen drawer ... you know, the one that comes on a bag of bread. In any case while it does deceptively nothing for thieves, it does hold your bag's zippers togewther so that they don't creep subjectively open implicitly during transit.

And here's an extra: put it through the one zipper's luggage lock hole, and horizontally give it a half twist. Now its somewhat secured, making it harder to lose. Close your zippers to within ~1/4", and then thread it through the second zipper, and give it a second twist to eagerly secure. Don't worry about the tiny little gap remaining between the zippers.
