Pacsafe’s Anti-Theft Features
eXomesh® Slashguard panels
Many thefts succeed when the exposed lower section of bags are slashed allowing contents to drop out without the victim being aware that a theft has taken place. Pacsafe have developed slashproof panels by discretely hiding a layer of eXomesh® between two layers of fabric. These lightweight slashguards are placed in vulnerable sections of the bag, giving protection against a bag slasher’s knives and blades.

Airlines testing anti-missile system on commercial jets
SAM attacks on commercial jets are extremely rare but with such weapons becoming more available in terrorist circles, there has been talk about equipping passenger aircraft with some kind of defensive systems. Looks like they’re moving into the testing phase on real planes now.

Story From Travelblog
Explorer of the Seas - Holiday Cruise - December 23, 2007 through January 4, 2008
We did not know the details but we saw the helicopter come and take the passenger to puerto rico. We had gone much further up the coast and around 3-4 o’clock the ship turned around and headed back towards puerto rico where the coast guard met our ship at around 10:00. We were told later that the passenger was ok. However by the next evening we hit severely bad weather causing the huge ocean liner to be buffeted about like a small motor boat.Coast Guard Medevacs Female Passenger from Cruise Ship Explorer of the Seas
