How to Set the TSA Lock on Bugatti Luggage

How to Set the TSA Lock on Bugatti Luggage

So, you finally upgraded your cheap, budget luggage and bought some fancy, new luggage by Bugatti. You might not be familiar with TSA approved locks, and you aren’t alone. We’ll give you a quick rundown on the benefits of having a TSA lock on your luggage and how to set your new combination.


Your new luggage has a TSA lock on it, but you may be asking yourself if you really need this. So, what exactly is this TSA lock? Well, the simplest way to put it is, it is a lock that TSA agents have a master key for. You pick a three-digit code to set which allows you to open your luggage at any time. A TSA agent can use their master key just in case your bags need to be opened and checked. How does this help you? If you put a standard lock on an agent may need to cut or break the lock to check your bag, even if it is a random bag check. Why do you even need a lock you may ask. While nothing is 100% foolproof having this feature on your bag can deter opportunity theft. A shady baggage handler or a sticky-fingered traveler may see the lock and pass on rummaging through your bags for those souvenirs you’re bringing home. It’s just one more layer of security and peace of mind, because traveling is stressful enough for most of us.

 

Now you’re probably wondering how to set this new feature. Thankfully, this is the easy part. These steps are fairly standard across brands, but we’re talking Bugatti luggage specifically here. Bugatti uses a TSA 007 lock which gives you the ability to lock your zippers into the lock panel and release them with a 3-digit code. To set that code follow the steps below:

  1. Grab a pen, paperclip, or anything narrow and pointed
  2. Set the code to the preset 0-0-0 and locate the reset button near the combination dials
  3. Use your pointed object of choice to press the recessed button in until it clicks
  4. Once the button clicks set your 3-digit code on the dials 
  5. With your code set press the lock button or push the keyhole to the side (it will act as a sliding button the release the zippers) depending on how your lock is set up
  6. This will unlock your zippers and pop them out of the lock. Now you’re ready to travel safely and securely!
