Hi gie,
It’s generally safe to leave luggage on the luggage racks. But as a safety measure, make sure it is visible from your seat. If you are concerned about theft, you can secure your luggage with a cable lock to loop around the frame of the rack. Smaller luggage can be stored overhead or in between seats.
