Important Notes

Expansion should be used cautiously to avoid exceeding bin space limitations. The TSA lock uses a standard combination mechanism; keep your code secure and consider resetting it regularly for enhanced privacy. This product does not include a built-in scale, so monitor weight manually to stay within airline allowances.
