Find a good deep shoe.

Almost all suggestions said to take it out of the box, then put it in a variety of places like an outside pocket on your carry on as they don't always check those anyway or in you wallet which you can then place in the tray or to attach it to your keys with your other keyrings and put it in the tray. I quite like the keyring idea as long as you can do it without Kristine seeing. I can't see why airport security would question a keyring?!!!

If you can think of a reason to carry your own carry on bag instead of sharing one with her that might work too. As long as you are relaxed and don't draw attention to a certain area I think you will have any problem. I know thats easier to say than do, but I am sure you will be fine. Best of Luck !

Unless it's a LOT of metal I don't think this will cause any issues at all. As long as she doesn't notice your new pinky ring!

I am so so so so excited for you EXCIIIIIIITEEEEEEDDDDD (BTW PETE , YOU KNOW IM ON MY NEW PHONE NUMBER ONLY NOW DONT YOU???...WILL SEND YOU IT JUST INCASE!!!)
Originally Posted By smedley Bloona very excited I really hope you get it through without any problems, I bet the look on her face will be worth a thousand words when you propose. I look forward to my text from Bloona telling me she accepted and how happy you are
Originally Posted By mickeymeg Ursula's hiding spot is the best idea yet. I am so excited for you =) Can't wait to hear all about how it goes. Have a great time !
Originally Posted By Princessjenn5795 If you put it in your carry on you should be fine. As long as you are careful not to have anything in there that shouldn't be they probably will not search your bag. If you do something weird like put it in a shoe and stuff it with paper they might decide they need a closer look. A ring in a box in your carry on will not raise any eyebrows, people pack jewelry all the time.
Originally Posted By disney pete Thanks for all the good luck messages guys ive gone with putting ring in camcorder case and ring bow in a pair of socks in my case i will join them up when we get there,oh well we are off tomorrow so i will text bloona on monday hopefully with news that we are engaged see you all in a few weeks.
