Luggage That Weighs Itself

It's safe to say that when we're getting ready for our latest holiday, we all worry about our suitcase being overweight. We dread the thought that we will arrive at the airport, put our luggage on the check-in scales only to be told it's overweight and then have to stand their unpacking our smalls in front of a queue off frustrated holiday-goers. Well, now, you don't have to worry about the embarrassment at the airport with these self weighing suitcases! The Fly Light luggage collection has a built in scale, which at the pull of the handle will display the weight of your luggage in pounds or kilos on its LCD screen found near the suitcase handle., fantastic. Although the cases cost a little more than your everyday suitcase, it's really worth it. So many budget airlines are offering cheap flights these days, but they often catch you out on luggage allowance. They often start by charging a fee for the suitcase you wish to take with you, then on top of that they will charge you by the kilo if you go over their weight restrictions; so before you've even got out of the country, the penalties for being overweight could have already doubled your originally cheap flight! This latest technology allowing you to check your luggage weight on both outward and return journeys is one way you can avoid paying more than you expected.
