I’ve also always thought that was a cost/theft issue, but I wonder if its also to prevent people from trying to use the hook-type hangers from hanging things from fire suppression sprinkler heads.
Good point. I recently stayed somewhere with a bolted sign by the sprinkler heads that said not to hang anything on them, lol. Makes me think it happens…a lot.
In general, you are prohibited from traveling with sharp objects in your carry-on bags. Multi-tools (multipurpose tools) with knives of any length are prohibited. Please pack these items in your checked bags. Multi-tools (multipurpose tools) with scissors less than 4 inches may be placed in carry-on bags.
but don’t forget (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.
The cost range of my hotels usually means that those hangars have loops at the top not hooks, and can’t be removed from the closet
Even the ones with hoops instead of hooks can be removed (in my experience, anyway). Super awkward otherwise.
I believe I did stay at one property where they weighed cost of the inconvenience as lower than the cost of the theft - completely locked to the rod
Bring a set of tools and take the hangers and the rod too, just for spite
Just one simple trick. Hotel owners hate this.
Usually in a place that classy it’s so you can’t hang yourself.
It worked
This has been my experience as well
Keep a couple clothespins/binder clips in your bag?
I don’t always carry my BDSM kit with me though. Sometimes a business trip is only a business trip.
You’re clearly in the wrong field, then ;p
Depends on your business :)

Just bring a pair of side cutters with you. Snip snip and you’re good to go!
I’d never go to a hotel without my leatherman with me.
Ever tried flying with it? I wanted to take mine on a flight but didn’t want to lose it so left it at home. Would they allow it on planes?

Yup, the last line holds true. Had a mini multi tool taken because I forgot about it in my bag - it definitely has less than a 4 inch blade.
It’s the scissors that can be less than four inches; it says no knives of any length.
Yup yup, I definitely didn’t read the full details before writing my comment.
Much simpler than bringing a clothespin. Or binder clip.
Bring one with you. Or a binder clip, bag clip, etc etc
There’s people who steal the curtains from a hotel they paid for?
