You’ll only have to buy a new travel suitcase once in a few years, so it’s important to make the right choice. The suitcase you pick can make or break your future trips—and save you a fortune along the way. Making a good suitcase choice is secretly a great money saver, and here’s how it can help you keep your next trip on a budget-friendly side.

Perfect Dimensions

Whether you’re buying a carry-on or a large suitcase, it’s important it fits the dimensions assigned by most commercial airlines. Sticking to these rules is the best way to avoid paying unnecessary baggage fees, so do some research beforehand to make sure that the suitcase you buy is the right fit.

Weight Control

Even if your suitcase has the right dimensions, airlines can charge you extra if it’s overweight. That’s why it’s a good idea to look for a lightweight suitcase, especially if you’re prone to overpacking, and soft-shell suitcases are generally considered a lighter option when compared with the hard-shell models.

Longer Life Span

Buying a cheap suitcase may seem like a no-brainer when you’re trying to save money, but it won’t do you any good in the long run. A quality suitcase is a good investment because it will last you for years to come, and you won’t have to worry it could break or tear after the smallest inconvenience.

Going on vacation can be exciting. Still, this feeling of joy can quickly fade when you’ve disembarked from your flight, headed to baggage collection as your bag just doesn’t seem to arrive. Still, you don’t have to feel helpless when you’re in this situation. Here is what you can do if your baggage is missing or delayed.

Report It

When you received your boarding pass, you would have also received a baggage tag to verify that you handed your luggage in. The first thing you should do is report your missing bag to the information desk as well as your airline. Many airlines have a desk at the baggage claim area where you can file a Property Irregularity Report (PIR).

Know Your Rights

If your bags cannot be recovered, it’s important to understand that your airline will be liable to compensate you for any reasonable expenses arising from this issue. This could include buying supplies such as toiletries during the time that your baggage is missing.

Claim Your Coverage

Although the airline is liable to compensate you for your missing items if they are not recovered, then the one qualifying factor is that the expenses must be “reasonable.” Make sure to assess how much your expenses may be so that you know exactly how much you are owed.

If you’re taking a short trip, looking to save money on baggage fees, or perhaps just looking for a smoother airport experience, then travelling with carry-on luggage only is an ideal solution. Still, packing light comes with its own set of challenges given the limited space and weight on offer. Here are some tips to help you travel with carry-on luggage only.

Remember Your Personal Item

What’s great with many airlines is that they allow you to bring a personal item on board the aircraft in addition to your carry-on luggage. This could be a purse, laptop bag, or even a musical instrument. Make sure to take advantage of this perk so as to maximize what you can travel with. A large tote bag could also pass as a personal item, making for a great way to bring extra baggage.

Use Packing Cubes

In addition to keeping items separate and easier to find, packing cubes are also good at compressing these items and minimizing the space they take up. Simply divide up your possessions by category and pack them in separate packing cubes before putting those in your carry-on.

Pack Cosmetics Carefully

Even if you are intent on applying makeup on vacation, remember that you don’t need to take your entire collection with you. Also, consider decanting large bottles of liquids into smaller bottles that are more appropriate for the shorter trip.

For many travelers, hopping on a flight without any baggage is unheard of. After all, isn’t it best to pack as much as possible before a trip so that you have everything you could possibly need? No matter how prepared you like to be, you may be surprised to learn that packing light has some clear advantages.

Skip The Lines

By arriving at the airport with nothing more than your carry-on luggage, you’ll be able to skip the enormous line at baggage check-in. You’ll be able to save time and limit your stress, heading straight for security and into your favorite airport lounge.

You Become More Mobile

By not bringing a large suitcase, you’ll find it far easier to maneuver through the bustling airport and whatever foreign city you’re visiting. What’s more, you’ll have fewer bags to look after, allowing you to focus less on safeguarding your possessions and more on taking in the sights and sounds of your destination.

No Waiting to Collect Your Baggage

Once you disembark the plane, you’ll have all of your luggage by your side. By not having to wait for your baggage to arrive at the collection point, you’ll be able to leave the airport sooner and get your vacation underway.

If you love to travel, you know how important earning points is. Depending on the airline, miles can be exchanged for cool perks like upgrading to more luxurious classes onboard, earning free nights at hotels, or just ensuring that you don’t have to pay so much out of pocket when booking a flight. 

Points can be earned when shopping at certain stores, and even reaching daily fitness goals, but here is one hack that you probably haven’t heard of before.

Members of Delta’s SkyMiles club can earn themselves a bunch of points, simply if their luggage takes a little longer to arrive. 

“We’re committed to providing you with reliable and on-time baggage service every time you fly,” Delta states on its website. “That’s why we’re backing your bags with a guarantee: if your checked bag doesn’t arrive at the carousel in 20 minutes or less after any domestic flight, you are eligible to receive 2,500 bonus miles.”

All you need to do to sign up for the 20-minute baggage policy is fill out a form online—and then cross your fingers that your bags take their sweet time!

Just remember, though, overweight luggage and special items don’t count; and Delta’s baggage tracking system will be monitoring. 

If you do luck out, those 2,500 miles can be used on any of the airline’s routes within the U.S. or Puerto Rico.

You Become More Mobile

By not bringing a large suitcase, you’ll find it far easier to maneuver through the bustling airport and whatever foreign city you’re visiting. What’s more, you’ll have fewer bags to look after, allowing you to focus less on safeguarding your possessions and more on taking in the sights and sounds of your destination.

No Waiting to Collect Your Baggage

Once you disembark the plane, you’ll have all of your luggage by your side. By not having to wait for your baggage to arrive at the collection point, you’ll be able to leave the airport sooner and get your vacation underway.

If you love to travel, you know how important earning points is. Depending on the airline, miles can be exchanged for cool perks like upgrading to more luxurious classes onboard, earning free nights at hotels, or just ensuring that you don’t have to pay so much out of pocket when booking a flight. 

Points can be earned when shopping at certain stores, and even reaching daily fitness goals, but here is one hack that you probably haven’t heard of before.

Members of Delta’s SkyMiles club can earn themselves a bunch of points, simply if their luggage takes a little longer to arrive. 

“We’re committed to providing you with reliable and on-time baggage service every time you fly,” Delta states on its website. “That’s why we’re backing your bags with a guarantee: if your checked bag doesn’t arrive at the carousel in 20 minutes or less after any domestic flight, you are eligible to receive 2,500 bonus miles.”

All you need to do to sign up for the 20-minute baggage policy is fill out a form online—and then cross your fingers that your bags take their sweet time!

Just remember, though, overweight luggage and special items don’t count; and Delta’s baggage tracking system will be monitoring. 

If you do luck out, those 2,500 miles can be used on any of the airline’s routes within the U.S. or Puerto Rico.
