Travelers with a lot of experience will tell you that it is very convenient to have two or three luggage for different circumstances. After all, the selection of hand luggage and checked baggage is influenced by your affection for items and mementos, the length of your trip, and the conditions of your holiday.
 

There are a wide variety of luggage available from manufacturers. Materials, colors, and capacities might change. Ultimately, though, there is only one thing that matters: if you are flying and do not want to have your personal things checked, your suitcase should not be larger than the airline's permitted weight and size restrictions. You can choose a suitcase based only on your personal preference in all other situations.
 

 

You will undoubtedly need a suitcase with wheels if you travel to comfy locations, try not to bring heavy items, and bring a lot of stuff with you. It's convenient; there's nothing like rolling twelve and a half kilograms to carry in your hands or on your shoulder.

 

Suitcase sizes

Suitcases that are no larger than 55 centimeters in height, 40 centimeters in breadth, and 20 centimeters in depth are often permitted to enter the cabin by airlines. Although there may be some differences, the total of all dimensions cannot be more than 115 centimeters.

Backpacks and larger suitcases have to be checked in with the luggage. While there is nothing wrong with this, those who travel for work, have short connections and a convoluted itinerary, or possess valuables would rather have their luggage with them. Furthermore, a lot of budget airlines offer a separate, extra-charged service for carrying a big suitcase.
 

Avoid packing items and valuables that are readily taken and misused. Carry cash, electronics, cameras, and valuables on you. There have been instances where seemingly insignificant items, including priceless stamp collections, have been removed from luggage. If you have any particularly sentimental items, purchase an appropriate bag or a compact suitcase and bring it into the cabin with you. Additionally, avoid packing perishable food in your luggage. The surprise will be spoiled if the luggage is lost and shows up at your destination many days later.
 

How much does a suitcase weigh

One very sensitive feature of a bag is its weight. A nice luggage without contents weights roughly 3.5 kg. There are lightweight variants from expensive manufacturers that weigh roughly two pounds. Thus, over half of the total weight will be on an empty suitcase if you plan to take items as hand luggage and they weigh less than seven pounds.

 

What material to choose a suitcase from

Cloth, polymer, and hybrid suitcases are available. Contemporary producers have mastered the art of crafting long-lasting, superior products.

Suitcases made of fabric are less expensive and weigh less. They frequently feature external pockets with room for future growth. If the bag is not left in a tropical downpour for several hours, it shouldn't become soaked through, but improper loading in the luggage compartment could cause it to tear. Furthermore, fabric luggage are more difficult to clean and more likely to get dirty.
 

Suitcases made of plastic are thought to be more resilient, heavier, and more expensive, but they virtually completely seal against damage. It is also preferable to transport fragile objects in a plastic case.

Suitcases that are "hybrid" consist of fabric and plastic inserts that are strengthened.

The elements of the case, such as the wheels, handles, and retractable canes, are more significant than the actual luggage. They have to be very good. Should a ripped or fractured luggage be able to be stored in a protective container or wrapped in plastic film for travel, any malfunction in the technology will leave you with a bulky and challenging-to-transport box.
 

How many wheels should a suitcase have?

Suitcases with two wheels are easier to maneuver. They can be driven on gravel and grass first. Second, two wheels are more likely to be protected from breaking because they are typically nearly buried in the casing. One minus one: the arm bears at least one-third of the weight of a tipped suitcase.

Only perfectly smooth surfaces are suitable for rolling four-wheel bags. Furthermore, the four wheels are continually protruding, so if you're not careful, they could break off.

Polyurethane wheels are known for their exceptional durability.

 

How to protect your belongings in your suitcase

More thieves and robbers are thought to target suitcases than any other kind of luggage. A visitor carrying a luggage is not particularly mobile in a crowded area. Additionally, opening a bag and looking inside is a simpler task at airports than searching through a backpack inside the luggage area.

Both external and built-in code locks are available, but you should be aware that they are only effective against evil persons. Naturally, you cannot get rid of them quickly and covertly, but they are rather simple to open.
 

It will be more reliable to keep the suitcase impermeable with a cloth cover or plastic wrap. Airports and specialty shops both sell cases. Additionally, you can use regular food film from the grocery store to wrap your suitcase in plastic at the airport for a fee or on your own when staying at a hotel. The suitcase can be kept from being opened discretely with just one roll.

 

Convenient cloth covers for bags are another option. It is difficult to remove and enter. The cover will preserve the suitcase's structure and contents in the event that it shreds or breaks.

Vibrantly colored covers or suitcases provide a protective quality. It is more difficult for criminals to blend in with the crowd after grabbing one of these suitcases. Furthermore, you will find it simpler to write a description in the event that your luggage becomes lost during a flight.
