Ammunition must be packed in a lockable box with key and placed in the checked luggage.


Ammo found in checked luggage in a manufacturers box or just thrown in will be taken out and put into a plastic bag and sent to the next destination. It is then the responsibility of the passenger to get the ammo home, which he can't do if his luggage has been checked through to his home base.

There are two options here, either the passenger adheres to having the ammo put into a locked box. OR

They check bags to their departure airport collect bags and firearms, ammo in the plastic bag ....

Evidently a "plastic bag" is the equivalent of a locked box.

And suddenly the usual airlines rules of "packed in original manufacturers boxes" is not acceptable?
