1. What percentage of time do you have your luggage tags verified to your "claim checks"?
2. Are there certain airports that always check? If so, which ones?
3. Are there airports that have historically checked tags, but have stopped in the past 12-24 months?
TravelManKen: I check luggage only about 10% of the time, and most of my travel is on CO. Here's what I can remember from the past two years:

1. 5% Verified (RNO), 95% Nothing (AHO, CDG, EWR, IAH, JNB, LGW, SFO, SNA)

2. Not sure.

3. Not sure.

I always remove the tag as soon as I retrieve my luggage and then throw the tag away after I leave the baggage claim area.
