Make your bag stand out - Airplane tip

by Jenna Knight (RSS feed) on Jan 21st 2010 at 12:49PM

Make your luggage stand out! Customizing your luggage prevents others from mistakenly picking it up and helps you spot your luggage faster.

Customizing your luggage need not be expensive. Inexpensive options include:

tieing brightly-colored ribbons to the handles of each piece of luggage;
affixing bumper stickers to the hard, external parts of bags;
wrapping multi-colored duct tape to the outside of a piece of luggage;
monogram-stenciling the bag with paint;
attaching unbreakable holiday ornaments to a bag's handles.

I bought leopard-print duct tape and wrapped the plastic handles of my suitcases and put a strip on the bottom of each one so I could spot my suitcases easily no matter which way they are laying on the luggage conveyer belt. Plus the leopard print livens up my solid black and dark brown suitcases.

This is why I have a pink suitcase. It's not hard to spot at all. :)
