I have friends who work for all major airlines and they will prevent him from traveling. They frequently check reservations and if they ever see the scumbag with an upcoming trip, they will write down the confirmation #, flight date / time etc, then the morning of the flight, that employee will ACCIDENTALLY cancel the trip. But they will do it from a personal device with a VPN and not their work computer so it will be untraceable. And in case you're wondering why the employee will wait until the morning of the trip, it's because if it's that close to the departure, the ticket cannot be refunded and in some cases the airline won't even issue a travel credit.

I do remember as a kid there was someone at the exit checking it was your luggage that matched your claim ticket. Now airlines don't care as they don't want to pay for added employees. If I'm coming back on a domestic flight and I checked in a piece of luggage, no matter what airport, I don't hang around the terminal after getting off the airplane. It's directly to the baggage claim. With international flights, it's not an issue, as you pick up your luggage before leaving the international arrivals area. People from off the streets can't just walk in there. San Diego is small potatoes with this problem. Check LAX. I don't know how many baggage claims there are, but it's a lot. A thief can get lost in the crowd, and pick a different terminal every time he returns. Once he picks up someone else's luggage, just strut out the door and hop on the first shuttle bus to anywhere to make a quick getaway.

I collect the personal information belonging to thugs like this and I go all out to make them miserable and put them at risk of being attacked or worse. This thug in particular, I have created several dating profiles pretending to be him. He is portrayed as a desperate homosexual who wants deep penetration while being pinned by another man. And YES this is protected by 1A and there is nothing that this thug can do about this and he doesn't even know that this is going on. He is not the first thug that I've compromised.

Years ago, one had to have their voucher confirmed with the tag on the bag. That was stopped and I was concerned about theft. My son was a fencer and we flew to many national competitions. He put his gear into a hard sided golf bag and as we realized the bag wasn’t on the carousel, the airport workers had lined the oversized items against the wall. I saw an older gentleman walking away with the only bag that looked like my son’s. The fencing sticker we had slapped on the side confirmed it and my son sprinted to prevent the man from reaching the exit. When I arrived the man was insisting it was his golf clubs and voices were being raised catching the attention of many people including security. Luckily, a security guard came over as we were physically blocking his exit. The man tried to explain that we were trying to steal his clubs and I told him to open the bag and prove that they were golf clubs, not the fencing gear and epees it contained. The security guard didn’t bother and instead asked for the voucher and the man said he didn’t have it because it was never needed. I presented the voucher, security verified it was our bag and we left. I wondered how often that happens since golf clubs are easy to sell. We bought a fencing bag that isn’t as sturdy because they are all soft sided, but knew it would never be mistaken for golf clubs.

I accidentally took a bag home that looked just like mine. I was shocked the next morning to find kids clothes inside. Fortunately I made the hour drive back to the airport to return it and there was my matching bag still there against the luggage wall. I unzipped it just to make sure it was mine. I always check inside now.

The real tragedy here is that no one would touch or even question this criminal out of fear of prosecution for violation of the criminal's false rights.

@@mrparts , Please see the comment below by cabojacks5106. I should have added that exact statement after my original sentence. And yes, decades ago, there were attendants at the airport exits who matched your luggage tags with your luggage receipts which were matched to your tickets and boarding passes. Also, only actual passengers from that one corresponding flight were allowed in the luggage claim area. There was a full chain of custody to prevent exactly this sort of pilfering and it worked, without creating any sort of delays or inconvenience. Unless of course you consider it a delay and an inconvenience to stop at the exit and wait for ten seconds while an attendant checks to make certain that you are taking only what is yours to take, with no line or delay incurred beyond the ten seconds. Also, next time you think about accusing someone of having a dumb talking point, pause and consider that the person may know something or have experienced something that you have not. I did not pull my original comment out of thin air. I am actually old enough to have experienced such baggage checks by airport security before I was allowed to leave with my luggage. Believe me when I say this, it was no inconvenience even for business and first class passengers because we all understood how easy it was to get one's luggage confused with another passenger's luggage, and what problems that would cause. We didn't even think about this sort of theft because it was nearly impossible for someone outside of the baggage employees to do it even once before being caught. Employees didn't want to risk their jobs over a few thousand dollars worth of other peoples' stuff before being caught, so employee luggage theft was not a concern either. These sorts of problems we face today on flights are mostly the result of deregulation. It is nice to have cheap flights, but not with the crazy behavior, overpacked seating, and poor service we have become accustomed to.

Incomplete solution. A fellow passenger can steal your luggage. Each luggage must be matched with its owner, as identified by the barcoded tag given by the airlines.

This happened to my husband in Frontier Airlines. He flew into Fort Lauderdale to surprise our son at his first college basketball game. He arrived and no bag. Called Frontier and was told his bag was in Atlanta. Would arrive in Florida the next day. Waited and never came. He called FLL and Trenton when he came back and they said they had no bags. We believe it was stolen. Glasses, contacts, etc in that suitcase. Airports need security to verify the bag is the persons that got off the plane

If the airport authorities make just a bit precautionary measures, this type of things would not ever happen

Secondly, they have 2 security guards posted on the only exit and they check your baggage claim ticket against the luggage you are carrying before you can leave.

That’s just crazy that you can just walk into the airport and walk out with someone bags. This should not be that easy.

On my last trip, I went to a UPS Store at the end of my trip and mailed a package to my house of everything I'd purchased during my trip that wouldn't fit in my carry-on bags. I'd rather pay a shipping fee than bring larger luggage that could get lost or stolen.

I remember years ago they had people standing at the door and you had to show your stuff or id

Avoid placing valuables, small items, electronics when shipping luggage’s in cargo bags. A very good advice is to place 1-2 “Air Tags” to track your luggage’s being shipped.

180 days probation. What a joke. He’s walking out like he did nothing. Disgusting what “justice is”

180 days? There’s nothing that includes justice there. That guy should be locked up for an extremely long period of time. You know that he will do it again somewhere else. Shame on them for letting this idiot go.

If he dressed up as a drag queen, he'd be let off without serving prison time. Ask Sam Otis Brinton.

I always dash to the baggage claim after landing. I worry about my bag being stolen because the area is open to public and no one is checking.

This old fellow almost had to continue wearing ties that were suitable for Church! OMG!

My friend was an Olympic gold medalist and while he carried his medal, all the other clothes, equipment and memorabilia were stolen and never recovered. Some things are irreplaceable.

Why can anyone get into baggage collection? Surely that area should be behind security

Majority of people I know don’t put anything valuable in checked in luggage. Basically it’s just dirty laundry and toiletries.

maybe it's a Japanese pervert, looking for used undies

Airport authorities should take this seriously. Japan has security assigned per carousel and also checking the tag before leaving the airport.

Some security, if he was able to do this for so long, imagine what someone else could do!!! Horrific!!!

This happens a lot more than you think. I was a cop at an airport and an airport taxi driver pointed out a guy that he would see several times a day at the airport and each time he was dressed differently. His MO would be to grab a luggage cart, select a bag from the carousel and cover the bag with some type of clothing and casually walk out. I caught him one night with a stolen bag and to make a long story short. Detectives discovered the suspect had two storage units full of stolen luggage. He ended up with a three year prison sentence. Two other times we caught thieves stealing luggage off of the carousels. The one thing I noticed all three times they would wait until most of the bags were picked up and select bags off the carousel when most of the passengers were gone.

I always put AirTags in my luggage. Everyone should.

This is outrageous! AND INEXCUSABLE! As a seasoned traveler, I clearly recall having baggage claim tickets that matched the tags on our checked luggage; and airline personnel at baggage claim making sure the luggage was actually ours.

You can’t get out of Best Buy holding anything without showing your receipt but people can just stroll up to the baggage carousel and take whatever they want. Plane tickets cost too much for terminals to cheap out on luggage security!

@@Jitterbuggn Its a domestic airport, international airports have customs which separates the zones. Additionally, airports have zero incentive to increase the security as airlines/credit card companies are the ones at risk for reimbursement, by which this is a minor business operational cost not worth investing in several airports.

A few years ago at Tel Aviv airport I observed an Asian man with a luggage cart full of suitcases attempt to add my luggage to his cart. I screamed across the room, "THAT IS MINE! PUT IT BACK!!!" He did set it down and walked away. If I had been delayed a few minutes I would have lost my very expensive medical equipment. I wanted to keep that equipment with me on the plane, but I was forced to check it in.

Luggage should be retrieved inside the gates…not at the very convenient exit door.

The punishment is just too small.He got away easily.

The suitcases of the arrival flights should not be released on the conveyer belt; instead, they should only be released upon scanning the barcodes on the baggage tags that are printed for the passengers when they check in their flights.

My biggest fear somebody taking my luggage. Anyway, that luggage claim place is very close to the door wtf!!! i’ve never seen something like that before

This "serial luggage thief" is served only 180 days in jail then on probation ?? No wonder this crime will be worse.

That sentence of 180days is too short, I'm sure he's been doing this for a long period of time.crazy nuts.

As a non american I was in Boston recently and was amazed to see that the baggage reclaim was not airside, but was just next to the exit door to the car parks and bus stops etc. where anyone could walk in and take bags off the carousel.

They CAN’T be AIRSIDE because the checked bags didn’t go through the scanners and have different rules than carry on bags!

LUGGAGE AREA HAS TO BE ONLY FOR THOSE WHO ARE ARRIVING ON FLIGHTS AND NO ONE ELSE...

I have seen drug addicts and other homeless and mentally ill people sitting in the airport as if waiting for a flight. So anyone can get in the airport without difficulty.

Agreed. All Airport areas need to be 100% ticketed passengers only.

The other reason this happens is that in the U.S., generally luggage areas are open to outsiders coming in and taking bags. In Canada, luggage carousels are behind secure areas, open to travellers only.

US is retarded

In other countries, baggage claim is in a secure area only accessible by those flying. The US is the only place where this is not the case.

That’s why we need an air tag on every piece of luggage.

Air port must block access to unauthorized people to come in side and grab luggage of passengers. In India you can’t get in side the airport if you’re not passenger you have to stay out on curbside to pick up your guests

“ he ordered to stay away from airports unless he’s flying” That would be really tough on anybody 🤣🤣
