Luggage and Flight Cases: Discuss
As you might know, I begin class at CHQ on Wednesday the 28th. I've been looking at Rollaboards and Flight Cases. I'm not sure what to get. The PNT bags have been recommended, especially the 737 bag, but they are pretty expensive. The TravelPro stuff is more affordable, but some people say it is crap while others seem to like it. Apparently, Costco has one that they'll replace as often as you break it, but you have to be a member at Costco.
As far as flight cases go, I've also heard about lots of different ones. The obvious problem to consider is when you attach it to your luggage and wheel it all over the terminal, the weight of the case on the handle would cause it to break. Some people have said that the Office Depot case would work until you get the year 2 pay raise. I don't know if I'd want to buy one, only to have to buy one again at a not so distant future date.
What are your stories? What do you guys and girls carry? Suggestions for low prices and good warranties would be greatly appreciated!
