I know it’s obvious to have a suitcase for travel, but I want to accent the importance of a good, compact, lightweight and nicely designed luggage. I bet you have never thought of it, but a vibrant color of your luggage, rather than the usual black and navy, can save you a lot of trouble on busy airports. It is so much easier to spot your luggage when it has unusual colors or patterns, so it will save you the stress of constantly picking up someone else’s luggage (and reading the name tags in panic!).
On the other hand, hard case luggage will keep your things safe, without the possibility of breaking or damaging anything inside the suitcase. And, please, no zippers! Never believe the quality of the luggage zippers!
At last, but not least, make sure to buy as lightweight luggage as possible. As a owner of a very well made, but very heavy Samsonite suitcase, I very much appreciate lightweight, stroller suitcases that are large, practical, safe but weight less than 4 kg.
