How To Get the Proper Travel Bag
There are all kinds of suitcases and travel bags on the market today: soft, hard, with or without wheels and of all shiny colors… One hesitates, it dithers, but we never really know which one to choose. While is tempting to pick the one you like best, you should do this keeping in mind the kind of trip you are about to take.
For the weekend only
Given the situation you’ll need to fly, a trolley would be the most convenient choice for its practicality and time saving. If you think of taking it in the cabin, you must keep in mind the accepted IATA dimensions of 45x56x25. Needles to say you suitcase must have proper wheels and handles to help you move it around easily. There are flexible and also rigid models. It all depends on your own preferences and style.
Going out for few weeks
The trolley remains the best option still, mostly if you will travel either by train or by air. It will be so practical to use as you won’t need to carry it around, but instead just simply roll it and let it stand when you are waiting for something. Make sure it has four wheels, in order to push rather than pull it. Unlike the weekend choice for luggage, the vacation one must be bit larger, in order to accommodate longer periods of time, when you need larger volume of clothes and self-care products.
Hard or soft case?
The most durable luggage are the rigid ones, being the most resistant to physical damage. Lately, such rigidity can be accomplished without making the luggage heavier, with the use of modern materials like polycarbonate. Soft suitcases have more capacity since they are deformable. It will allow you to store more things inside. However, they are more sensitive to shocks, scratches, cuts or dirt caused by handling by the airport staff.
Going on your holiday by car
Because you’ll store it in the car’s trunk, you’ll be better with a big and flexible luggage. Your suitcase may as well miss the wheels or telescopic handlers, as you’ll go by car. Once at destination, it will bend easily and will take place at the bottom of a closet or under a bed the entire time.
Afterall…
If your traveling bag does not match the trip’s profile, you may be in for some headaches, regardless of your destination or means of transportation. Aside the practical issue you must also go for what you like in terms of style or brand, either sporting a notorious Samsonite or a luxurious Delsey, or even famous European brands with good reviews like the Rimowa luggage review or a traditional Swiss Victorinox. Traveling around the world it has to be a pleasant experience, so choose your luggage carefully. Happy holiday!
