Question 1

What are the advantages of personalized travel bags?

Accepted Answer

If you want flexibility, custom travel bags are the way to go. Custom travel bags are more common than hard bags, especially for carry-on luggage, and are easier to squeeze into narrow overhead bins. These custom travel bags can also absorb shock better than their molded counterparts. These custom travel bags are lightweight - generally lighter than rigid ones - making them easier to stuff into overhead bins and the like. Be picky about fabrics, however. Look for a bag made of ballistic nylon (or other tough nylon), which offers the best protection against wear and tear. And make sure the fabric is waterproof and stain-proof.Custom travel bags are available in a variety of models; for example, you can buy a carry-on suitcase with a zippered backpack attachment, or a duffel bag that can be strapped to your back or wheeled through the airport.If you like to have outside pockets to hold items like a book or your clear plastic bag for liquids and gels, you're much more likely to find them in a soft suitcase. Custom travel bags also usually have a single large interior compartment, with the front of the suitcase acting as a sort of lid, whereas most hard bags are designed in a clamshell shape, with two equal halves that fold together.

Question 2

What is the best color for personalized travel bags?

Accepted Answer

Custom travel bags are available in just about every color and design imaginable, from metallic solids to leopard print. Classic black tends to get the least wear and tear, but it's also the most common color for travel bags, as evidenced by the endless sea of black suitcases that pass through the baggage carousel after almost every flight. Choosing a brighter color for your checked bag will make it much easier to spot.

Question 3

What size of personalized travel bag do I need?

Accepted Answer

Check the websites of the airlines you fly most frequently to learn about the size of travel bags you can check or carry on board, and keep in mind that many airlines have different size requirements for international and domestic flights. If your new travel bag exceeds the limits of the airline's size restrictions, you'll have to deal with the consequences (read: fees). The Goldilocks principle sums up what you want in a travel bag: a travel bag that is neither too big nor too small, but just right (for you).

Question 4

What additional features should I consider when purchasing custom travel bags?

Accepted Answer

Compare the different interiors and exteriors of custom travel bags to see what fits your style. Plenty of compartments and pockets are ideal for super-organized packers, and features like a waterproof plastic bag can hold wet bathing suits or leaky shampoo bottles. Think about where and how you travel and what you typically pack when considering these suitcase features.HandlesLook for a sturdy handle that is comfortable and ergonomically designed. A handle system integrated into the interior of the suitcase is best, as the handle is protected from damage. Test the handle: Extend it to its full length, make sure it locks (and stays locked) and give the bag a spin. If the custom travel bag pokes you in the back of the legs, it means the handle isn't long enough for your height. Custom travel bags with a detachable clip, a looped clip at the top of the suitcase near the handle, allow you to attach a second suitcase to a larger one. When you pick up the checked custom travel bag, clip on your carry-on or personal item and your hand is free.ZippersThe larger and stronger the zipper, the longer it will last and the better it will withstand the abuse of travel. Choose a metal zipper rather than a plastic one, and look for self-repairing zippers, which are so named because, in the event of a snag in the zipper teeth, pulling it down and over the snag fixes the problem and reseals the teeth.
