Big difference between a highly trained airline crew flying the plane and the minimum wage morons handling the baggage.
Horrors! Spirit Airlines and cues!
- Thread starter VIProfessor
- Start date
I'm flying em for the first time to Atlantic City in Sept.
My cue and case will be inside one luggage bag.
Did you fly from the Islands to the states?
Yeah, I did. Will ship it next time.
Spirit Airlines broke my cue in the middle of the butt. It was in a hard case inside a larger bag. The case was not damaged. Somone had to take the cue out and pound it on something. Totally malacious. They wouldn't pay me a dime either since I didn't discover the damage until I got home and unpacked everything.
Damned!!
That's pretty sad.
Look at the bright side, A.. YOU arrived at your destination andThis is my first time flying Spirit Airlines, and my heart told me not to trust them with my cues! How do you lose a bag on a nonstop flight from St. Thomas to Orlando??!! I guess Racks in Sanford won't be seeing me tonight!
Praying that they are found, and warning all players...leave Spirit Airlines alone!!
B. Good excuse to buy a new cue

Glad the gear is safe. I was wondering recently about pros traveling with their gear. I saw an episode of What's in the Case, where Efren puts a big fragile sticker on his case when he travels. Seems risky.
Fragile stickers dont mean shit to a baggage handler.
I think they believe its something in Italian...... FRA....GI....LAY
It is even funnier that the proposed solution is to ship them, when there have been numerous threads here about problems shipping cues in the context of selling cues.
With CohVid moments coming and going, it took 26 days to get a shaft mailed from CA to CO....It's hard to send a cue waaaaaaaay in advance, because whaddahyah going play with during shipping???
David in FL and VIProfessor at Racks. The baby boomers are alright!
You have a new home pool room next time you’re back in town!
Safe travels home and get back here soon, buddy!

Jay, did it have a TSA sticker on the bag? I wonder if your cue was the victim of overzealous inspectors.
For sure, bro! I'll pass through and hit some balls this evening. And if I don't see you then, maybe we can hook up in late August when I come back. In any case,, let Joey know I'll return to make another small deposit (or to collect on the loan).
By then my game should be back in order and I can at least represent myself.
I was wondering about those small TSA padlocks for luggage zippers. Are they still being used?
A swallow. But be sure to use an African swallow, as it has a greater weight capacity than a European swallow.
Or, there is always Jason Statham as your transporter.
