Is this occurring when they make you gate check carry on? I have heard a lot of complaints about this, as the thieves who work for airlines, (and there are many), know that these bags are more likely to have valuables and that the airlines prefer to ignore the rampant thieving by their employees. However, once bitten twice shy!!! After three times, next time they ask you to check hand luggage, insist you take our your valuables before handing it over.
