PRLog (Press Release) –
May 20, 2008 – Cruise enthusiasts who fly to their points of embarkation have reason to fear that their checked luggage could be lost. During 2007, airlines lost seven bags for every 1,000 passengers, according to the Department of Transportation. The lost baggage rate has climbed steadily every year since 2002.
To rest assured that your luggage will arrive at the ship even before you do, consider using a luggage delivery service. In exchange for an up-front fee, these services will collect your packed bags from your home or office and ship them to your departure port.
Shipping luggage ahead allows you to move through airports more quickly and easily. You won’t have to maneuver your luggage through a crowd, wait in line to check your bags or take them through a security checkpoint. In addition, you won’t be surprised by any of the additional fees that many airlines are charging for extra, oversized or overweight bags.
On the plane, you won’t have to search for an empty overhead bin that can accommodate your bags or try to stuff them into the space under the seat in front of you. At your destination, you can stroll past the baggage claim area and go right to your ground transportation. After your cruise, shipping your luggage home will ease your return flight, allowing the relaxing effects of your cruise to stay with you a bit longer.
While the convenience of a luggage delivery service may tempt you to board a plane carrying nothing more than a good book, remember that some items should always travel with you in a small carry-on bag. These items include prescription medications and items of significant value.
