Suitcases with TSA lock
prices on 109 models— the presence in the suitcase of a lock certified according to the standard of the US Transportation Safety Administration — TSA (hence the name). The reason for the creation of this standard was the tightening of customs inspection rules in the United States and some other countries — because of which airport employees often had to open luggage in the absence of owners, breaking locks if necessary. In order not to spoil the suitcases, a new type of lock was developed, combining the work with a digital code and with a regular key. Ordinary passengers use the code, and customs and security officers have universal keys that can be used to open and close any TSA lock without damaging it. A suitcase with such equipment is worth buying if you are planning a trip to the USA, Canada, Great Britain or Israel — this is where TSA keys are used during the inspection.
