Shipping Your Luggage
Cruise
enthusiasts who fly to their points of embarkation have reason to fear
that their checked luggage could be lost. During 2007, airlines lost
seven bags for every 1,000 passengers, according to the Department of
Transportation. The lost baggage rate has climbed steadily every year
since 2002.
To rest
assured that your luggage will arrive at the ship even before you do,
consider using a luggage delivery service. In exchange for an up-front
fee, these services will collect your packed bags from your home or
office and ship them to your departure port.
Shipping
luggage ahead allows you to move through airports more quickly and
easily. You won’t have to maneuver your luggage through a crowd, wait
in line to check your bags or take them through a security checkpoint.
In addition, you won’t be surprised by any of the additional fees that
many airlines are charging for extra, oversized or overweight bags.
On the
plane, you won’t have to search for an empty overhead bin that can
accommodate your bags or try to stuff them into the space under the seat
in front of you. At your destination, you can stroll past the baggage
claim area and go right to your ground transportation. After your
cruise, shipping your luggage home will ease your return flight,
allowing the relaxing effects of your cruise to stay with you a bit
longer.
While the
convenience of a luggage delivery service may tempt you to board a plane
carrying nothing more than a good book, remember that some items should
always travel with you in a small carry-on bag. These items include
prescription medications and items of significant value.
To find out
more about luggage delivery services, talk with your personal cruise
expert. o
