I travel a great
deal, for both business and pleasure, and (like most seasoned traveler's)
have found that the lighter my bags, the more pleasant my journey.
Consequently, I have thought a lot about the subject, read extensively
on the issues. Most important, I have tried all this stuff out, experimenting
with a variety of solutions in many cases.
Identification:
Personalized luggage strap makes bags easy to spot in claim area!
Rugged 2" strap with plastic clasp cinches snugly to keep suitcase
from popping open, prevents others from taking your luggage by mistake.
Make sure your identification strap is easily viewed by you when your
ready to pick your luggage up, the strap should be large enough for
you to see with out trouble, you might want to consider a strap larger
than that recommended. You want a safe and secure travel experience
so make sure the strap is secure.
Mobility:
Small luggage bag or one bag. You needn't arrive
at airports as early. You can board trains, trams, and coaches with
alacrity. You can more easily deal with delayed transportation and
missed connections (because you can choose alternatives without worrying
about what will happen to your bags). You can travel as an air courier.
You can sell your seat (by volunteering to be "bumped")
on full flights. You will be among the first to leave the airport
for your destination, while others wait for bag's delivery and long
customs inspection queues. And you won't feel compelled to take the
first hotel room offered; you can easily walk out when the reception
counter person quotes too high a price. Economy: You don't have to pay porters
and the like to carry bags around for you. You will be more able to
take public transportation, rather than taxis and limos (where you
often pay extra for luggage). You can even walk. All of which will
also bring you into more intimate (and thus rewarding) contact with
the people and places you have come to visit.
Security:
By not having to check bags (or otherwise entrust it to the care of
others), you are much less likely to lose same (or its contents) to
theft, damage, or misrouting. Would that peace of mind were always
so easily acquired!
Wheeled
luggage:
when choseing that wheeled luggage make sure the wheels are durable
enough to with stand a tremndus amount of abuse. The wheeled luggage
you chose should have wheels large enough for the luggage piece. I
have not seen many wheeled luggage pieces that have replaceable wheels,
but should be considered if avaiable.
Here are some
luggage bags designed with Genuine leather. These Wheeled
luggage pieces should last you a long time if
the luggage is maintained.
