1. If you have several bags, it will be ideal if they are the same in shape and size. If you're lucky, they'll end up next to each other on the luggage belt, and not even because the luggage department staff will put them side by side, because they look the same, but because bags of the same size are easier to install side by side.
2. If your bag weighs 25 kilograms, bad times await it! You yourself barely dragged her to the car, and now imagine that people throw such bags all day long. Naturally, they are tired and they don't care a bit anymore, so they are unlikely to treat your luggage with due respect, and torn handles are the lesser of evils.
3. If you need to carry heavy luggage, then take a more reliable, comfortable-shaped bag, preferably with wheels. Such bags are easy to maneuver, they are easy to fold, so you have a better chance of keeping your things intact.
4. When buying a bag for packing luggage, make sure that it has strong handles, and it is made of durable material.
5. Fill in the baggage tags. They were invented for a reason! Write down the name, address, and contact phone number by which you can be found in the place where you are going, so that in case of loss of luggage you can be contacted promptly.
6. Remove old tags! Who wants to carefully inspect the entire suitcase in search of the only necessary data? In addition, your luggage can simply be sent to another place.
7. Do not leave an empty space in the bag. Naturally, you want to leave some space in your bag to put there the purchases that you will make on the trip. Due to the empty space left, things in the bag will hang out, crumple and, possibly, even get damaged. You can fill the voids with an ordinary newspaper that weighs minimal.
That's it, just 7 simple tips. If you try to fulfill them, then your luggage will arrive at your destination in one piece. And to find out what minimum of things you will need on a trip, read our post about traveling light.
