You should be able to put them anywhere in the luggage that won't act as a faraday cage which for most luggage is just about anywhere. My plan is to put them in the toiletries bag (if the luggage has one) and possibly attached to a shirt (barring theft or confiscation, should not go missing). If you put it in an outside pocket, it's more likely to get "discovered" and tossed (if the luggage is stolen).
