Due to increased airport security, many new luggage screening procedures for checked baggage have been put in place. We've included some of the best packing strategies below to help make your next trip as problem-free as possible.

• Have some visible contact information INSIDE each suitcase.
• Keep all checked bags unlocked; if your bag is selected for random screening, airport personnel may have to break the locks to get inside. Skip the locks to avoid any damage to your luggage and instead use plastic cable ties.
• Do not over-pack your bag.
• Use zip lock plastic bags for any items that could leak or possibly break in transit.
