According a TSA report, passengers who are required to put belongings in those plastic boxes are very forgetful. While going through security last year, they neglected to claim over $765 thousand in loose change, paper money, credit cards and other valuables.

And the careless trend rises, now double what it was a decade ago. Not that seniors are the most forgetful air passengers, but next time you fly, be thorough. Make sure to empty all of your belongings out of that plastic box at the end of the security line.
