Flight leaves manila NAIA with just the crew on board

Rayna - no point in locking zips, apart from to stop them coming open accidentally. Look on Youtube for a video on how to open a case with a pen and you will see why.

Personally, when I see 'shrink-wrapped' luggage I always wonder what the owner is hiding. Also remember, customs can open any case they like before/after the flight for security/safety checks.

The bags get opened up after X-Ray due to suspicious bullet looking item being detected.
Wrapping will help planting from taking place.
If the x-ray shows something get all the security and staff to watch the owner unpack

I know about the zips. I've known about it years ago. I'm just doing my bit to protect my luggages and bags, especially in NAIA airport. I've always put multiple locks in my luggages ever since I started travelling overseas (years ago). I'm lucky nothing bad happened to any of my luggages other than a few scratches. I think protecting your own luggages is not a bad thing to do, instead of leaving it all out in the open.

I don't blame you for being cautious, just so long as you are aware its not 100% secure ;-)
