I’ve filed the report already with the airport/airline but Im just curious to see if its been turned on?
It was taken out of my luggage so big sad.
Just to clear up confusion. I meant my carry-on luggage! It was taken I believe at security as I had turned my back to my bag to put a coat on (I have mobility issues so its a big of a task) When I turned back I noticed my zip open but didnt think anything of it just thought I did it myself.
The charger was still in the bag so it feels like a grab and go thing when I had put it back into my back at security.
And this is why you keep the expensive toys in your carry on/personal item.
It was in my carry-on, sorry I call luggage just whatever bags I have. Was at security I noticed the zip open
what if i have too many expensive toys and cant fit them all in on the carry on? maybe i could hide them in my underwear.
Perhaps you don’t need to go on vacation with all of them at once?
perhaps dont tell me what i need or dont need and mind your own life?
You literally asked a question and got an answer lol
They probably confisticated it, not stole it. Why are you stowing away Lithium in the checked baggage anyway
That’s not how that works. You can’t have LOOSE li-on batteries, they can be part of assembled electronics. Stoping making shit up
This is what happened… no lithium below deck
What airport did this happen at? Sorry yo
Schipol Amsterdam
Why would you own one of these but not have it with you on the plane, lol
Main reason I got mine lol
Indeed, on a long flight I am whipping it out and playing some games. Not sure why it was not in carry-on to begin with.
I hope you’re still talking about the steam deck 😂
If they are using your account may be?
Never put anything in checked luggage that you aren’t willing to loose. I once had an airport loose 5 suitcases when going on a cruise in the Mediterranean. Didn’t see them until 3 ish days later and everything inside was damp as if it had sat out in the rain or on a wet curb and gotten splashed a lot. Ruined some of my brothers books he’d brought. But I had my valuables ( and a spare change of clothes) in my carryon so I was alright.
Luggage gets lost, stolen, broken into and just plain raised all the time. Our bags had locks on them and they still looked like they had been rifled through Thoroughly, each and every single bag.
Sorry you got robbed, I’d consider contacting the police as this isn’t a case of just leaving it on a plane but someone actually breaking into your bag and stealing your personal expensive belongings. That’s a crime and the airports will probably be a Lot more willing to do something about it ( they have cameras literally everywhere in airports) if you mention that you’ve gotten the police involved.
Did you have a passcode on it?
I never ever put anything in luggage beyond clothes or random bathroom stuff. Bring valuable stuff in your backpack.
Don’t put anything expensive in your suitcase ever again, they hire all types of weirdos nowadays and internal theft has increased in airports and your crap out of luck if anything goes missing because the people in charge of finding your stuff might be the people who stole it
Wouldn’t call it stolen because pretty sure lithium ion batteries are a no no on luggage, so it got confiscated. Call airport
People keep saying this is it’s incorrect.
https://www.faa.gov/hazmat/packsafe/portable-electronic-devices-with-batteries
“Most consumer personal electronic devices containing batteries are allowed in carry-on and checked baggage, including but not limited to cell phones, smart phones, data loggers, PDAs, electronic games, tablets, laptop computers, cameras, camcorders, watches, calculators, etc. This covers typical dry cell batteries and lithium metal and lithium ion batteries for consumer electronics (AA, AAA, C, D, button cell, camera batteries, laptop batteries, etc.)
Spare (uninstalled) lithium metal and lithium ion batteries are always prohibited in checked baggage and must be placed in carry-on”
It really depends on the airport and country. Not all airports and countries allow batteries in luggage. What you’re quoting is specific to the USA and US airlines.
I’d never put my SD in my luggage was it allowed or not, just thinking it could get crushed, even a slight scracht from the movement terrifies me.
Sorry that happened. On the bright side is you can order a new OLED deck!
Indeed, every negative situation has a positive side. Now OP has a reason/justification to get an OLED.
Op hasn’t responded at all. Bullshit post.
Or maybe he’s still tryna figure out what happened?
You sure it wasn’t confiscated?
Li batteries are usually not allowed in checked luggage, depending on the airline/country they might have had jurisdiction to remove it from your luggage
