• Personalize your Luggage
  • Most people put a tag on their luggage with their name, address, and telephone number on it.  This is vital.  However, with so many pieces of solid-colored luggage nowadays, one way to spy your luggage immediately as it comes down the belt at the airport is to tie a brightly-colored ribbon or scrap of fabric onto your handle.  When you see that fabric, you’ll have no doubt that that is your luggage.
  • A less-obvious way to personalize your luggage and to ensure that your bag finds its way to you in the slim chance that it gets lost is to write down all important information and place it on the top of your packed stuff inside before you zip it up.  Include your name(s), your home address/phone number, and the address/phone number(s) of your travel destination.
