Family travel is one of the most fun events many of us look forward to planning each year, and this year we ourselves are looking forward to several family trips. I’m definitely touched with wanderlust and have a feeling my sons will enjoy seeing our great world on adventures as well.
The only worry many of us have while traveling is security, because nothing ruins a vacation faster than feeling violated by theft (or being stranded without our credit cards and passport!). We want to relax and not have a care in the world while we sip our margaritas and run along the surf, so smart travelers know they need to keep everything locked up and secure.

When we travel, I take money, my cameras, our smart phones, personal ID and passports, and other very significant, hard to replace items that would be pretty devastating to lose, and would ruin our vacation if we did. We found Master Lock luggage locks recently to help keep what we pack safe, and both the Master Lock 4688D and Master Lock 4680DBLK are a TSA-accepted luggage lock that anyone can use on their luggage.

I purchased the Master Lock 4688D for my own use, a great little tool for less than $10 that gives me peace of mind. They feature an easy-to-use combination lock and a flexible cord, and can be fixed to your luggage zipper tabs to keep everything inside secure.

I also recently discovered the Master Lock SafeSpace Portable Personal Safe and the SentrySafe Small Portable Combination Safe for security on-the-go, which are water-resistant and can keep all my most valuable items safe. I purchased the Master Lock 5900D SafeSpace Portable Safe in gunmetal gray, and it can fit my cell phone, credit cards, keys, and passport, so I can use it when I travel, or even just go to the gym.


After using it for a bit, I realized parents of college students can give a Master Lock portable safe to their children to use them in dorm rooms, and younger children can keep their personal items safe at camp. The cable is very durable and wraps around any fixed object so no one can snatch your portable safe and go, and the cable doubles as a carry handle.

So while we are on a train or plane, or at the hotel, everything is safe. Master Lock is a trusted brand that I’ve been using since I was a student myself, and they continue to provide the same reliable safety they always did. I remember our school supply lists even naming the brand Master Lock as the one we should pick up, because they are known as the go-to security resource that doesn’t let us down.
