Examining Ultra Light Weight Suitcase Technology

Luggage Gear Examines New Technology in Ultra Light Weight Suitcases

(PRWEB) August 26, 2010

Luggage Gear, a major player in the supply bags, suitcases and accessories have now added super lightweight luggage bags to their product offering. As airline baggage weight and restrictions are becoming more firmly enforced, consumers are finding that there has never been a better time to invest in ultra lightweight travel solutions.

Leonard Davis of Luggage Gear commented on the new line, ‘Before the recession, airlines did not seem to be quite as strict with luggage being over the stipulated requirement. However, now that there is a strong focus on customers having to pay for excess baggage, travellers are becoming far more aware of how to pack cleverly and save on the unnecessary weight, which includes the luggage they are using.’ He continues, ‘While many manufacturers were already offering products that were known as lightweight, new innovations have meant that the luggage weighs less than ever before.’

Top name brands in luggage and accessories, Samsonite, Antler and Delsey have all paid great attention to market demand by delivering new and improved travel luggage all of which are available through Luggage Gear.

Samsonite has introduced hard side luggage solutions, Cosmolite (presented in a unique shell design) and Bright Lights (available in a range of fun colours), and also a soft side luggage offering known as B-Lite (the cabin size bag weighs in at just 2.3kg).

Antler have revamped their Size Zero lightweight luggage range to now be even lighter, while Delsey also put their innovations team to the test and delivered their all new and improved Fibre-Lite soft side luggage.

About the company: Luggage Gear is an Australian based, online luggage supplier that offers a wide range of products including bags, backpacks, daypacks, laptop, business luggage and anti-theft luggage.

                Luggage: Carry on vs. Checked

                Article by Cathy Peterson

                Purchasing luggage these days can be a complex undertaking. Not only do you want to consider the usual factors you would when making any kind of purchase: style, quality, your personal needs, etc. but today’s raised security concerns, particularly with air travel, mean that you are also presented with a dizzying array of rules and regulations as to what can be carried, how big it can be, whether you can lock your luggage or not, and other issues. Regulations are always in flux, and may vary from airline to airline, so you should always check with your carrier about current rules before you travel, but here are some basics that should hold true across the board.

                One of your first concerns may be carrying on luggage. Many stores and catalogs will carry bags that are called carry ones or are advertised as being suitable as carry on bags. However, rules regarding carry on luggage vary widely, and many bags sold as carry on exceed the size limits imposed by many airlines. If everyone is different, what should you do, then? A good rule of thumb is to try to limit yourself to the items that you will absolutely need or use during the flight. In other words, get the smallest carry on you can that will hold what you think you need, and in most if not all cases, it will be within your airline’s guidelines. Since most airlines will let you bring one carry on and one personal item, such as a purse, briefcase, or small backpack, consider using a larger purse, or putting personal as well as business items into your briefcase so as to maximize all the space you have. Other things to keep in mind are that you will probably have more restrictions for international travel and smaller commuter flights (that use smaller planes).

                The flip side of putting less in a carry on may mean that you put more, and possibly more valuable, items in your checked baggage. Often now, checked bags will be not only electronically screened like your carry ones are, but may also be inspected by a person, which means that security personnel will need access to your bags after you have dropped them off. The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has approved several brands and types of luggage locks that are designed so that you can open them, security personnel can open them with a master key, but other people cannot. If you want to lock your luggage, this is a no-brainer. If TSA agents cannot open your luggage to inspect it, they will break your lock. Some high tech versions will even alert you (by a light) as to whether the bag was opened or not, and if so, if it was with a TSA key or by an unauthorized person.

                Pack smartly and avoid headaches at the airport.

                              Mine is a 55l and was £40! Ebay has some cheapest ones. For a list of hostels check out Trip Advisor site, they have loads of info on hostels.Have a good trip:)
