Great lesson on how to pak ’’ But has anybody thought of the restrictions they have on hand baggage’’ In Europe they start from 6 Kg to max 10 Kg and only one item and that can be a lady’s handbag this bag looks likes it full ’’ ant now the hand bag’’ if you can’t fit into the bag’’ your bag has to be checked in at a charge off up to € 35 why not do as I’ve done; and purchase a Jaktogo great invention they can’t do anything about it can save money and time ‘’
I'm a American, living in Europe (mostly Germany) for over 20 years now and let me tell you: Just come to Europe! If you are not a totally stupid person, you will have no problems over here. Just please don't act as if Europe was the deepest jungle. Europe intellectually at least equal to the US
@sweetncool They add weight that could be put to actual things, also, there are still a lot towns that have original cobblestone roads and steep and narrow stairs. Wheels would not be beneficial in these cases. And the bags themselves are more rigid, so you can't easily shove them into the overhead been or under the seat in front of you.
@sweetncool i agree with Mr. Hypnofan totally... a backpack is best. Cobblestone streets are rampant in Europe..and so are crowds! People will trip over your wheeled luggage and the wheeled suitcases can flip over on the uneven cobblestones. Think of Venice... you've seen pictures of Venice, right? lots, lots, LOTS of little bridges with steps at both ends! it would not be fun lugging wheeled luggage over those bridges. BACKPACK! gotta go with the BACKPACK!
@Siobanphotogirl i totally agree. i live in slovenia and in april we went on a school trip to venice ( its like 2 hours from slovenia) and we laught so hard when we saw some americans with wheeled luggage trying to get to their hotel .it was sad to watch hahahha

What's the point of this? Europe is a much safer place than the USA. Just come across the pond and don't be so scared.
