Luggage Hard
February 4th, 2009
What would you recommend for durable luggage? Hard shell?
My husband travels weekly for work and the airlines are massively distructive with luggage as I am sure everyone knows. He is debating buying high end stuff ($300+) or buying more mid grade which needs replacement often. Does anyone have any experience with a very durable brand? What about hard shell?
Thanks!
He just dropped of his AmericanTourister this morning for repairs............
I travel for a living. Travel Pro, E-bags, Samsonite, American tourister, All good. Travel pro is best. I bought middle grade bagsfor a while, but replacing them got way too expensive. Go ahead and spend a little extra money now -- you'll save in the longrun. Hard Shell tend to weigh a ton while empty, just get a really good 21"-22" bag. This will fit in most aircraft's overhead bins. This way, your husband will not have to check his bag. No Matter where I am going, no matter for how long, I pack the same small bag and bring it on board with me. This will also cut back on the damage the bag gets when being handled by the airline.
Hope this helps!
