was able to open it. No security whatsoever. So I've always been aware that staff could get into it and so have always had the safe.
I had to go out and buy a new suitcase without a zip for my upcoming trip. There's no way you can get into it - you would have to steal the suitcase itself. Maybe that offers some protection.
