Where is the atricle published from CDG? I didn't realization knows what happened those 12 people gotten busted. It was too many people were trying to steal ipods from people's luggage. This is not appropriate for baggage handlers were trying to stole the ipods out of the bags. I knows airlines is taking own responsibilities for keep bags is locked all of the times. This is not appreciate it for ramp workers on the job. Hopefully they will eventually being fired or subject to be arrests.

So that's what happened to my two belts last month!
The downside of having a HON/Priority tag on a bag?

Arrest and prosecution at the very least for this lot.
