re: Confiscated TSA items should be returned to their owners.

1) Read the rules and pay attention to what you put into your.

2) Who do you expect to pay for the shipping?

Perhaps they need a stack of flat rate USPS boxes and a credit card machine with a drop box. I just don't see any reason why they would go out of their way to deal with other people's negligence.

And if this is in response to items in checked baggage you should go back and read 1 and 2.
