After all that anticipation, you're all ready. Pair of Oakleys in hand with wallet and tickets in back pocket, Coelho and/or Kiyosaki in your tote, you're rarin' to get away from it all. But before you step out your door, here are some important things to know about your luggage and traveling safely.
Check the condition of your luggage, looking for small tears in the fabric or around the seams. Also be on the lookout for any broken parts, and if there are any parts that aren't exactly a hundred percent, replace or fix them immediately. If you didn't buy the cheapest luggage out there, you won't have to worry as much about broken zippers, ripped seams and other factors that can make or break your trip. Avoid attempts to show off in any way - you may be thinking your luggage is the you-know-what just because it is brightly colored with all those bells and whistles, but those airport bandits are thinking of something else - "hey Boss, looks like we've got ourselves a heist!"
Still, that poses a question - if you're going incognito and using black luggage, how do you spot it among the zillions of 'em at Baggage Claim? Tie a bright scarf around the handle, or buy luggage tags that are brightly colored so you can spot your luggage and others won't mistake it for theirs. Even better, thieves are not likely to nab the more distinctive bag, but would rather walk away with anonymous luggage.
Today's airline policies allow each passenger to carry two bags totaling no more than fifty pounds. If you were planning on carrying one overweight bag (weigh it at home), you'd be better off traveling with two bags of lesser weight. You'll endure more stress at the airport, but will avoid paying the excess weight fees airlines impose on overweight luggage. European airlines allow considerably less in most cases, sometimes limiting the weight to just 33 pounds.
Mark your luggage well with your ID. You'll be glad you did if they are lost. Also, you want to be on the conservative side by slipping in a copy of your itinerary inside your bags. This would give airport staff members a good clue of your whereabouts if your luggage goes missing.
The Transport Security Administration scanning process, or TSA, may be something you will have to go through. To help you get through this with a minimum of fuss, pack your items in clear plastic organizers. Don't wrap anything fragile in your clothing, instead place them in sturdier-than-usual packing. Have a good mind to go easy on airport personnel, as repacking can be a chore.
Plan in advance and be suave when it comes to organizing your things to guarantee a safe and enjoyable flight.
