You can open them with some jiggling even with keys that aren't supposed to work. Picking a TSA lock is absolute the easiest thing imaginable. See Deviant Ollam's YouTube videos on this. | |

All TSA002 locks, for instance, can be opened by the same TSA key, but they aren't supposed to all be opened by the same ordinary key, which is what they'd have at the luggage store or with a new piece of luggage. Getting or printing a TSA key would work though, and the lock is likely not hard for a locksmith (or perhaps even a luggage repair place) to pick. | |
