Traveling with old and frankly scary suitcases can be a good idea, says Only in your state. You would never guess why!
There is nothing wrong with a stylish new suitcase - your bright and beautiful suitcase will help identify your luggage and quickly find it on the luggage rack, as it will generally set you apart from the crowd. But there is a good reason to think about going on a holiday trip with an ugly suitcase or bag.
Experts believe that the use of ugly luggage can protect what is in it. Thieves, both at the airport and outside it, are less inclined to pay attention to an old and battered suitcase than to a shiny and expensive one. According to this year’s data, on average 3’s suitcase for every 1000 passengers is lost, damaged or stolen, and last but not least is new and beautiful baggage.
Due to the upcoming holidays, the risk to your budget may be even greater. High traffic means that baggage is often handled quickly and with less attention than usual. So, your suitcase can badly pat on this trip. Which again speaks in favor of traveling with an old, battered bag, especially if you plan to fill it with gifts.
