Space Bag Helps Travelers Save Space and Avoid Extra Baggage Fees
Following Spirit Airlines announcement it will charge for carry-on luggage and with most major airlines charging for checked baggage, ITW Space Bag is offering tips and a special offer to help travelers pack more efficiently and avoid extra baggage fe
“That prompted us to offer space-saving tips for travelers, and create a special offer so that more people can try Space Bag To Go Bags, which allows travelers to pack more and carry fewer bags.”
Much of the bulk in clothing is created by air trapped within fabric. When the air is evacuated, bulk is reduced. Space Bag To Go Bags accomplish this with an airtight zipper and patented one-way valve. Travelers pack garments inside the bag, seal the zipper and squeeze out air. The items stay compressed and take up less space, creating up to twice as much room in suitcases and carry-on bags. The bags come in various sizes and are available in roll-up and push-down versions. They are re-useable and fit suitcases, duffle bags, backpacks and carry-on bags.
“Consumers are increasingly frustrated with extra baggage fees and are looking for ways to pack more of the things they love into and fewer bags,” said Betty Jamieson-Dunne, director of marketing for Space Bag. “That prompted us to offer space-saving tips for travelers, and create a special offer so that more people can try Space Bag To Go Bags, which allows travelers to pack more and carry fewer bags.”
Space Bag is now offering a Space Bag To Go Starter Set with two carry-on push down bags for $7.99, plus $3.95 for shipping and handling. Orders can be placed at SpaceBagToGo.com or by calling 1-800-716-2326.
Space Bag also offers the following tips from its Space Savers community, an online community helping people save space and get organized:
- Start with a list. Packing without a plan is a surefire way to pack more than you need.
- Pack versatile items. Opt for solid-colored separates that can be mixed and matched for a variety of outfits.
- Pack travel size toiletry items. Buy some re-usable travel size containers. They will save space and money.
- Wear your heavier coats and shoes on the plane to avoid them taking up valuable suitcase space.
