As Boston City Guide Examiner for Travel, one of the most important aspects in this role is knowing where to stay, what to do and what luggage is the best. For this holiday season, I'd like to recommend my favorite pick for travel, whether staying local for a night at a cool Boston hotel, such as The Liberty Hotel, or heading out from Boston for a drive to Vermont, Maine or New Hampshire. Especially for airplane travel, I've got the perfect luggage for you.
We all know someone who loves to travel, taking off for weekend jaunts that may or may not incude air travel. But the most difficult part of the journey, whether traveling by car, bus, train or plane -- is packing.
You want to fit enough for a weekend, but you don't want to spend any time ironing or fishing around through your luggage for belts, scarves, ties, jewelry, etc. And you don't want to be worried about meeting the guidelines of carry-on luggage at the airport, which seems to happen a lot these days. Round trip, a mistake in stuffing a bag intended for carry-on could cost you about $50 more than your airfare. And this fear could be alleviated with an updated high-tech, easy to use carry-on bag like the one I know use -- and LOVE!
My AtlanticUltra LITE is really just that -- with mesh pockets to hold delicates in separate areas, a bottom liner to unzip for shoes or storage of dirty cloths, a pocket in front for my small laptop, and another for my book, iPhone and pens. My back doesn't hurt from lifting it into the overhead compartments on the airplane, and it is so easy to wheel upstairs at New England bed and breakfasts.
