December 29, 20222 yr I will never EVER check bags when traveling for business and solo. When traveling with a team, you will be roasted to an oblivion if you do it near or around seasoned business travelers as well. That said, with the family on family vacations, there is little reward to being so spartan. Also the lack of TUMI luggage recommendations is disappointing. You guys steered my guy zepol in the wrong direction. Has the lack of travel since COVID-19 really made us forget so much?

December 29, 20222 yr Bag checker here. Never had an issue. And I throw essentials like a clean shirt, toothbrush, underwear, etc, in a carry on. I'm good for 1 night without my bags.

December 29, 20222 yr Popular Post My vintage Louis Vuitton steamer trunk won’t fit in the overhead bin, and I wouldn’t dare let some baggage handler get their filthy hands on it, so I pack it, place it in a wooden crate, and FedEx it to my destination.
December 29, 20222 yr Gucci still makes those. Saw one in their store the last time we were in Vegas.

I travel a shit ton for work on AA, only had 1 issue with a checked bag in the past 2 years and that was at Burbank. I don't understand how you guys have so many issues what the fuck are you doing? How else do I get a truckload of Coors from Texarkana to Atlanta?

December 29, 20222 yr I got the SWA message as well. Problem is I should be landing in San Antonio right now and drinking on the Riverwalk by 2:15. Instead, those fucks "rebooked" me on a flight leaving tomorrow morning with a Houston layover that gets me to SAT in time to sit in the airport for 3 hours before boarding my previously booked flight back to Dallas LOL. What a fucking clown show. They better not even think about trying to stick me with flight credit. I want cash with interest.
December 29, 20222 yr AA once offered me a $25 voucher for future travel after they had a mini version of this a few years ago.
December 29, 20222 yr If you don't wear pants at all you can get by using a gallon Ziploc bag as your carry on. People don't want to sit by you on Southwest flights as a bonus. Edited December 29, 20222 yr by kevwun

We rarely check bags, but as long as you don’t check anything you care about losing and make sure you’ve got toiletries/change of clothes in your carry on, it’s fine.

In years ago do you mean pre-1995? Back when good customer service was a thing. Lulz

After a few years the bottom of the legs or the crotch start to wear out. I move them to the old outside jeans section of my closet and buy new jeans. I consider them expensive in my view of what jeans should cost, but even washing them weekly they last a pretty good while. I don’t get people’s obsession with being dirty. I iron my T-shirt’s though, so I probably qualify as anal. I also try and take the company plane as often as I can get away with it at this point to avoid the airports altogether.

Some drink coupons and a stay in an airport hotel should be pretty fucking helpful the next time I fly over the holidays. It makes the lost luggage issues and $1700 in extra flight expenses easier to stomach.
December 30, 20222 yr I have a mid-Jan trip to Florida on SWA. Should I be worried about them finding a way to put pilots, attendants, fuel and luggage together with passengers by then?
