John explains that any loose accessory—ribbons, strings, charms, or even metallic stickers—can obstruct scanners or get caught in conveyor systems. These disruptions not only slow down baggage flow but can also create stressful situations for passengers whose luggage ends up delayed or sent to the wrong destination. He recounts instances where decorated bags nearly caused travelers to miss their flights simply because the scanners couldn’t read them properly.
Surprisingly, John also warns travelers about packing certain dense foods in checked luggage. Marzipan, in particular, has a density similar to some explosives, and this can trigger security alerts. Items like dense chocolates or nougat occasionally cause the same issue, leading to time-consuming secondary inspections. Packing such items in carry-on bags or shipping them separately can help avoid unexpected delays.
To make bags identifiable without interfering with scanning equipment, John recommends choosing suitcases in bright or unusual colors or decorating them with fixed, non-dangling elements such as tape or painted designs. A securely placed luggage tag with contact information provides added safety without obstructing scanners.
