If you have to leave clothes/other items because your luggage is overweight what happens to these things? Are they thrown away or maybe auctioned off to staff?

I received a very nice piece of Embark luggage and noticed that when you open it up, there’s a zipper on the bottom in the lining where you pack your clothes. At first I thought it was like a garment bag but its not a lot of space to actually pack things. Why is this?

My pregnant sister wants your opinions on this. She is due in a couple of weeks. She has her overnight bag packed and it includes a change of clothes for the baby. She is asking if it is necessary to bring the baby’s diaper bag to the hospital. Did you need your diaper bag before you got home with the baby?

She doesn’t want it to have to sit on the floor and get dirty for 2 days if it’s not necessary to have it while you’re at the hospital. What do you think?

As many of you know I went out of town (on business) and guess what? They lost my luggage!!! I was irrate. I went to attend and speak at a conference and here I am with nothing but a sweatsuit to wear. I have since calmed down but once I realized that they only want to reimburse me $25.00 my level of irritation began to rise again. Any suggestions? What can I do to be reimburesed for the clothes that I HAD to buy.

I want to make just a little more room in my carry on bag but I fear that TSA agents will want to open it. A friend said they didn’t think so because it would just be clothes in there and they can x-ray through that. By the way, I’m traveling to my parents so revacuuming the bag is not a problem. Thanks.

I have a fairly heavy suitcase with clothes and other items I’d like to ship in a box from Paris to Melbourne, Australia? What’s the best, cheapest way to ship it by boat or sea, since that’s far less expensive that air freight?

asked:


I’ve noticed that I never end up wearing everything I thought I would and have packed with me for a vacation. I generally end up wearing 2/3 of what I packed. Do you mostly wear everything you pack? How can I make sure to pack only the things that I will actually wear instead of carrying around extra clothing?
