EXPERTS have revealed the top tips to keep your luggage safe this summer after a family had theirs nicked right off the airport carousel. Sarah Barrett told KSLTV how her family had to check-in their bag as there was no more room in the overhead lockers on the plane. Despite the couple having hesitations about their luggage going into the hold, they reluctantly agreed.

The family, from Utah, were brought some sense of relief as they were able to track their baggage on the airlines app. But upon landing and going to the airport carousel, Sarah said they were waiting for hours to get their suitcase - and left empty handed. Their luggage was mostly made up of souvenirs and clothes but Sarah expressed her frustration of how these errors happen in a system that has remained the same for decades.



She said: "If you're going to make it so secure to get in. Can you also make it secure for our luggage to get back to us?" Now The Salt Lake City Police Department has shared expert advice to save your luggage going missing this summer. They said the best thing travellers can do to prevent stolen luggage is to set your bag apart from the rest.

SLCPD Detectivr Dalton Beebe said: "Put ribbons. Stickers, you know, something to identify that it's your bag, coming through the baggage claim." They also urged tourists to keep expensive and irreplaceable items in your carry-on so you can watch your prize possessions.

Travellers this summer should not just worry about their luggage, but check their.
