Mobile phones in my handbag
Hello all, I am here again getting so excited and nervous of my first visit to Phil. I am so nervous and worried thinking that I would be in a plane in few weeks but the same time excited to see all my family in the Philippines. I keep checking what my pasalubong are for them. I have three extra phones ( need to be unlocked when I get there) which I will give to my twin nieces and my sister.They are all good phones and in good condition. Now I am not sure where to put them whether in my handbag or in my luggage. I thought it is safe to put them in my handbag, but somebody told me the customs might be suspicious about me having these extra phone aside from one that I am using. What do you think?

Best to put them in checked in luggage. As when I worked at the airport, I was always told the supposed rules regarding hand luggage are, anything you are likely to need during the flight.... or within the first few moments upon leaving the airport.

Personally, I'd put them in my hand baggage. High value items to lose if your suitcase goes missing (or gets opened by security). As long as you have proof of ownership of the phones and a reason - gifts, there should not be a problem. Unless we're talking £1,000s worth of iPhones and not just some old Samsungs here?
Over the years and many flights, I've learned the hard way not to put things I can't afford to lose in the hold baggage. You're still going through customs with both hand and hold luggage anyway.
