Get A Grip

How to choose your luggage so that it doesn't become baggage!

It pays to buy quality luggage, not necessarily a high profile designer brand (they’re the bags that get stolen first), but you want it to hold up to the rigors of travel.

SOFT VS. HARD LUGGAGE:

Basically soft sided luggage is more flexible and you can stuff more stuff in them, while the hard side bags are safer for transporting anything breakable.

WHEELS, WHEELS, WHEELS!

Even balancing two small bags on both shoulders can be tiring if you have to walk any distance at all, plus shoulder straps can be tough on your jacket. A bag that has wheels AND converts to a backpack is the most versatile.

NO CHECKED LUGGAGE!!

If you can pack everything into two carry-on size bags, you'll be way ahead of the crowd in more ways than one.

Carry On Caveat:

The FAA and the airlines have new and changing restrictions on carry-ons, and may limit passengers to one plus a briefcase. Watch your local papers, call your airline or your travel agent....
