A baggage handler has shared an amazing tip that can make passengers think twice about tying a ribbon or adding an extra item to their luggage.
Although many people use ribbons or color tags to easily identify their bags on the carousel, But this well-intentioned practice can sometimes do more harm than good.
According to insiders, ribbons and other loosely attached conveyors can be easily caught in belts, machinery, or other equipment during the loading and unloading process.
This can lead to delays, damaged equipment, or even the loss of ribbons, The bag looks just like all the others.
In the worst cases, it can cause the bag to explode or the ribbon to get stuck. The conveyor can potentially jam the belt and cause further complications.
Instead, the handler advises choosing more secure ways to distinguish your luggage. Such as using a luggage cover, choosing a different color or pattern of luggage, or using stickers or patches.
These alternatives are less likely to interfere with the baggage handling system and still help you find your bag faster at the airport.
