  • ID Your Bags - Inside
    - INSIDE of every bag you bring, carry-on or checked, place your name, address, phone number on a card inside a small ziplock bag. You wouldn't believe how many of those nametags fall off the outside of bags. If the airlines find your bag, they will search the inside for ID.

  • Identify Locks and Keys
    - Tired of trying to figure out which key goes with which suitcase lock? I use a permanent felt marker to number the locks and their keys; matching them is a breeze. I keep one set of keys safely pinned inside my purse/carryall, and my husband keeps one set pinned inside his pants pocket. If there is a third set, it is pinned inside our carry-on luggage.

  • Identifying Your Luggage
    - Instead of agonizing about the choice between easy identification and home security, mark your luggage with your email address. Chances are you will be e-mailed before you know it has gone missing. Also - as mobile phones can increasingly work anywhere in the world - put your mobile number on the luggage i.d. - if you are taking it with you.

  • Keep Your Credit Card Numbers Safe
    - This tip may sound unconventional - but it's very useful. If you want a place to keep credit card numbers, etc. as a backup where nobody would ever think of looking for them, try this:

    Pack a roll of toilet tissue. Find an empty toilet tissue center tube, and mark down any important numbers, etc. on the outer side of the cardboard - or carefully tape a piece of paper to the outside of the empty tube. Then, very carefully insert the empty tube into the middle of the full roll of toilet tissue. This has to be done carefully - and there will be a small crease on the 'fake' center once you have finished. Nobody would ever think to look there!

  • Lint Brush Substitute
    - Instead of a lint brush, pack several of those clear plastic, adhesive airbill pouches used for Federal Express packages. They're flat, light and disposable, and they work very well.
