I'm not overly concerned about the staff, but the other people in the baggage claim area.

It's not a big deal, just wish they made it a bit more like a vague cover. As they say in their FAQ section it has the same chance of theft as a cardboard shipper, but I feel they should offer a toned down version of it.

I do believe it's a great product, and hope they are very successful with it.
A 'Platinum Travelers Edition' (at twice the price) will be available in 6-9 months that fits the bill. This beats checking or shipping a box, and is reusable. So far 500 or so flown and no thefts
