Be on the lookout for an announcement from the TSA this Friday, which may loosen the rules on objects allowed on airplanes in the States.  Underwater photography is both gear and travel-intensive, and allowing scissors and other small tools on board would definitely be a good thing (I’ve lost quite a few allen keys to the TSA...).

  3. Last time I traveled, TSA took away my scotch tape.  I suppose that will still be contraband.

  5. Ah, just in time to accompany those new excess baggage rates for Christmas!  Of course, now I’m going to have more people clipping their fingernails next to me on the plane (ugh).
