Have you ever mashed your finger while stuffing your luggage in the overhead bin on a plane?
Bumped someone on the shoulder or the head by accident with your suitcase?
Ended up paying way more than you expected to have your bags checked in?
Or, had your luggage topple over again and again while in a hurry to make it to your terminal?
Dealing with luggage can get frustrating to the point it takes the joy out of traveling.
If you want to save time and money with your luggage, the next time you’re at the airport, use these helpful insider tips that’ll make travelling with luggage a lot easier:
Four Wheels Are Better Than Two
Ever see people stroll through the airport with 4-wheel suitcases? Depending on the kind they have, it looks effortless. That’s because it is effortless, or at least a lot easier than pushing around a 2-wheeler. Do yourself a favor and consider investing in one, if you’re going to be travelling a lot.
These bags make it more convenient to navigate tight spaces and maintain better control over your luggage. In the end, you can get through the airport faster without your bag toppling over.
Make Your Luggage Standout
The last you want to deal with when you get off the plane is play, “whose bag is it anyway?” Prevent having to shuffle through a sea of similar looking bags by getting that looks unique. You can also do something to a plan bag that’ll make it stand out as distinctly yours.
Wear Your Luggage
If you truly want to avoid absurd baggage fees, consider wearing your luggage on your back. Some clever travelers have stuffed their jackets with items to save money.
Don’t Check Your Bags
If you want to get off the plane and go straight to your destination, take only carry-on bags when you travel. Most airlines let you have at least one carry-on bag and another small item. It may be a good idea for you to use carry-on bags to save time and ensure your stuff makes it at the same time as you.
Pack Only What You Need
One of the smartest things you can do for a carefree travel, is to travel light. If you can’t seem to decide what to leave and what to bring, just ask yourself what you’ll really need.
