I have recently read news articles about these “suitcase stickers” that are causing a lot of disturbance at some airports. I know waiting in line at the airport for your luggage to come out can be a hassle, especially when everyone’s suitcase pretty much looks the same. However, I don’t think these suitcase stickers are the best solution. The stickers give the illusion the exterior of the luggage has been ripped off and inside it looks like the suitcase is full of either wads of bills, a captured flight attendant or even bags of drugs. The idea was created by two Vancouver entrepreneurs who made a website called TheCheeky.com to sell novelty items. They wanted to make luggage appear interesting and stand out. The stickers are selling for $15 each. In my opinion, this is a sure way to ask for trouble at an airport. Even though most airports probably know about the stickers by now, I can’t see security letting people walk around with stickers of drugs attached to their bags. This must cause some sort of security breach or other hold up. It’s common travel knowledge to do special little things to luggage to make it stand out from the crowd. Couldn’t they make stickers with bright, fun designs or more normal, legal objects? I don’t know about you, but this is one trend I won’t be following. I’m going to stick with the purple polka dot ribbons I have wrapped around my luggage and avoid the captured flight attendant sticker. — Amanda Smith, advertising and editorial coordinator
