Question
Can I travel with vacuum package storage bags in my checked baggage (to and from England).

Answer
Dear Kelly,

Yes you can. TSA will x-ray your baggage and if they found anything suspicious, they will open it and check each item individually. After this if additional inspection is required they will place the item on the machine again.
For a list of permitted and prohibited items check the below link:
