What Type Of Luggage To Select

By Poppy Hill


Booking your holiday and arranging what to clothes to bring with you on your vacation would all depend on what type of luggage you intend to take with you on your trip. Generally there are two options, the first would be a suitcase the other a back pack. Some people have strong opinions on both types but neither is right or wrong just personal choice.

Some travellers prefer using a back pack when travelling as this allows them the freedom of using their hands when purchasing tickets or when using their phones or computers. Some travellers think that the pack is too heavy after a while when travelling around from city to city and hurts their back. Another disadvantage would be when travelling on public transport because the pack would be heavy and you are unable to view your own back in order to find out if you are causing havoc when moving around trains and buses. Mt friend always had problems trying to go through turnstiles at the London underground with hers.

A suitcase is the most common type of baggage to use when going on holiday. They are perfect to use as they come in different colours and styles to suit your personality. Planes are now equipped to allow passengers to carry their small cabin suitcases onto the plane with them when they are travelling as a small allowance for each passenger is agreed when booking. Carrying your luggage onto the plane is ideal for short breaks or business trips as travellers don't need to wait around for their luggage coming off the carousel. Another fab thing in its favour is the practical use of the suitcase especially if it is on four wheels as the case will glide easily through the concourse. One major down side to the cases though are they are tricky to carry upstairs or on escalators at airports or train stations.

Passengers have their own theory about back packs and suitcases and which one is the best for travelling. Packs tend to be used by students as opposed to suitcases. Where as families and business tend to use cases and feel they are treated a bit better upon arrival at airports and hotels.

Meanwhile what type of luggage do you use during the day. A small handbag or mini back pack? Advantage to using a compact back pack is that all your belongings are in one place and can be carried easily around the day with you. Whereas hand bags are a bit uncomfortable when carrying souvenirs and bottled water as the straps may tend to slip off and are uncomfortable aster a while.

Each traveller has their own needs to think about when travelling and what suits their needs for their holiday trip.
