brianj1964 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 they miss out the bit where luggage handlers break into the bag and rummage for valuables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivas Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Safer than humans throwing your luggage as far and hard as they "humanly" can. One of the reasons I use a "soft" bag thats strong in manaufacture but hopefully absorbs the wallops these Baggage Handlers deliver to. Hard Case more likely to burst open but only my opinion.

bendejo Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Compare that to the LCCT in Kuala Lumpur. When you check your bag with AIr Asia it goes right onto the cart that will be driven to the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Opinion. It is fact. I have traveled millions of miles. American Airlines ripped one apart and many were lost but the soft bags win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You betcha, and helping reduce my carbon footprint to boot, has never burst on me throwing my knickers all over the gaff and can fit half a ton of Yorkshire tea bags in there for LOS extentions with ease... with a few lbs of proper full strength mature Chedder cheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
