After a good period of many flights across lots of states and through loads of airports without incident, I've hit a rough patch recently in my Flying With Firearms travels. In the span of just a couple weeks, I've had gun cases broken into by the TSA at multiple airports. Each incident like this represents a policy and procedural stumble that can (and hopefully will be) addressed by both the TSA as well as the airlines and the airports.
There's plenty of blame to go around, but also lots of opportunities for improvement. This video covers what authorities and companies can do but also includes a lot of new advice from me regarding what YOU as an air traveler can do, as well. Enjoy! 😁👍
