Lucky charms – Do you travel with one ?

[Limewood]

Aw, shucks. That should be worth at least 100 'bonus points' in the good books.

Was thinking a lot, lot more

I suppose I shouldn't mention that former Saint Christopher has been purged?

My answer is NO. I do not have a lucky charm, document, toiletries bag or other object I carry for luck.

Always travel with a St Christopher keychain which was gifted to me by a close Catholic friend a number of years ago. I'm not really religious, though I do tend to lean towards a Buddhist approach to life, however never leave home without the keychain - regardless of where I'm going. Mind over matter, maybe, but it will remain with me for as long as I breathe.

While I am Catholic and travel with the Buddhist charm....I used to have a St Christopher charm but kept losing it

Nup, luck is about risk management.

Purged from the religious calendar, he is still regarded as a saint. (So no need to discard your medal just yet. )

I take Eeyore on every trip with me.

Another couple I know take Tigger also

 

[qwazx]

Every flight, travel with at least 2.

They are up the front, and its lucky they decided to pursue a career in aviation?

Not a charm per se, but I always do a quick double knock on the fuselage as I board. Sometimes I get a smile or a comment from the FA, but mostly it's not remarked upon. Extra points if I can knock on the one world logo.

My lucky charm is the pilot ... I refuse to fly without one!

I prefer to take an aircraft with me.

I prefer to take an aircraft with me.

So we're a matched set? I'll take you and you can bring the aircraft. Now who has the fuel?

 

[Lord_Lenny]

Don't usually have one when I'm flying domestic, but for some reason I like to keep a St. Christopher medal on me (or more accurately in the folder with my passports and hard copy itinerary) when I'm flying international.

I also like to give the fuselage a wee tap for luck on my way in (or lean on it if they are slow checking boarding passes heh)

I was given a touristy key ring type thingy from a friend who went to Ghana. I take it everywhere. for some reason, it gives me peace of mind.

I have absolutely no idea why, but when I read your post I mentally started to sing 10CC's "Dreadlock Holiday". Weird! They weren't singing about Ghana, nor was your gift a necklace and it wasn't a present from your mother....... Perhaps I need to lie down.
