Sounds like something that quickly becomes mandatory if you want to get through security. And would transparent luggage "do" anything? Scanners aren't looking at your luggage as if it was transparent ...
I don't think the transparent luggage is a solution exactly, the issue is we already have security theater and I'm not sure we're any safer because of it.
More process, more / different lines to stand in, I'm not sure that's better.
- jerlam 1y agoAren't transparent bags and pouches already required in many schools and sports venues? Subjecting adults - especially business travelers - to even more indignity as if they were children, or rowdy sports fans - will incur a major backlash.
- duxup 1y agoI'm sure some places they are, but I'm not sure it's of much value.
- JohnFen 1y agoIt's of no security value. Maybe it is in smaller bags, but in suitcases most of the contents are going to be hidden by the other contents of bag. Being transparent wouldn't give you enough visibility to have real security value.
