There are thousands of bags that are stolen from baggage claim carousels ever year. Thieves usually target low-profile luggage. For example, a plain black suitcase with no definitive markings would be a prime target. However, thieves usually avoid luggage with bright colors or unique markings. Placing personalized stickers or other items on a suitcase is a good idea to help make it less of a theft risk. Thieves usually steal smaller pieces of luggage, so be sure to purchase larger bags and suitcases.
