I see a few nice ones on amazon but i obviously cannot get these since its way too late. Also how many locks do you guys usually put on your checked bag? Do you put a lock on every single one or just the important ones?
If you have to use locks, make sure they are TSA compliant. Available many stores, Google it.

I don't have faith in luggage locks. The pros who steal know how to get around them easily, fast. Seen the demo how you can open zippers with a simple ball point pen ?

I just use the simple plastic ties available by bunch. Does not stop a thief, but lets you know it was opened.
