Airport handlers have revealed secrets on how to enhance the protection of your luggage from damage. Experts claim that the design, material, and even the color of the baggage can affect its integrity. Bright suitcases, especially red, blue, and yellow, attract attention and ensure more careful handling.


Tips for Choosing a Suitcase


Material: Soft fabric suitcases withstand compression better and are less prone to cracking compared to hard plastic suitcases. However, solid suitcases provide better protection for fragile items. The best option is semi-rigid suitcases that combine a flexible body with reinforced corners.


Design: Handlers prefer two-wheeled suitcases because they are easier to transport and place on the conveyor. Covers and stretch film wraps can protect the suitcase from damage but not always from impacts. Some experts advise against rolled-up suitcases as they may move awkwardly and lead to damage.


«To prevent damage to your items, handlers recommend investing in a high-quality bag with four working wheels, soft padding, and a hard outer shell to cushion your belongings,» - experts add.

It is also important to remember that baggage costs can be significant, so some travelers choose minimalism to save money. In addition, construction has begun in Poland on a new transport hub - the Central Communication Port (CPK), which will unite air and rail transport in the center of the country.
