It''s an excellent bag, though; the drawing on the right doesn''t begin to do it justice. A good quality collapsible cart will cost you another or so from a discount luggage supplier. Mine has skids to handle stairs more easily, but is somewhat more bulky, and considerably heavier. Don''t waste money on the cheap carts typically sold in airport shops. And when reasonable, of course, leave the cart at home. When you''re not using the cart, a shoulder strap will be the preferred carrying method. Unless your shoulders are well padded and non-slip, consider buying a better strap than that supplied with the bag. The current leader in this category is a well-padded, non-slip, asymmetric design (I''ve seen people wearing these backwards; the concave edge of the pad should be closer to the bag). Passing the strap over your head, to rest on the shoulder further from the bag, is easier on your back (amazing how many people know that, and don''t do it anyway). Another good solution (in fact, the one I most commonly use, especially when carrying a heavier-than-usual bag) is one of the dense rubber wedge-shaped shoulder pads used by U.S. Post Office letter carriers. makes these in a style that allows easy attachment to a standard carrying strap; ut will sell you one for cheap.

Mobility, flexibility, expandability, compatibility, packability. All those “abilities” should be your guide when you choose your travel equipage. And that goes for both luggage and what you put into it.Let''s start with exteriors for now - your luggage, part 1. If you haven''t yet taught your bags to heel, get with the program. It''s far easier to roll a bag than lug it by its handle or dangle it from your shoulder. The wheel has been invented and found good. So either buy a bag with built in wheels or get a luggage cart of some sort. Those devices of collapsible tubing, large wheels and bungee cords are inexpensive and do the trick, but they pose almost as many problems as they solve. do not permit them to be carried in overhead bins, they are awkward underfoot and are easily damaged when checked. Try instead the lightweight, flat-folding ones that fit in a carryon. One such is the The 100 model weighs three pounds and carries 40 pounds, the 200 weighs five pounds and totes 110 pounds.

You can even walk. All of which will also bring you into more intimate (and thus rewarding) contact with the places you have come to visit. You needn''t get to the airport as early. You can more easily deal with delayed flights and missed connections (because you can take alternate flights without worrying about what will happen to your belongings). 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 baggage delivery and long customs inspection queues. You can board trains with alacrity. And you won''t feel compelled to take the first hotel room offered; you can easily walk out when the person at the reception counter quotes too high a price. What To Take It In (Choosing a Bag): The most important issues here are: quality (because luggage takes a beating, and because quality is always an issue) airline carry-on limits (because there are two kinds of luggage: carry-on and lost) transportability (because you will carry your luggage more than the airlines will) This leads to two solutions, depending on whether you are contemplating business travel in urban locations, or trekking around Europe (or wherever) on vacation (or whatever).
