Luggage

Ken:

I usually just ship my stuff via UPS and have it delivered to the place I'm
staying. Last time I did this, I totalled up the value of everything I was
shipping, and was stunned by the total - but at least having it all
inventoried makes insurance easier.

Has anybody ever hired this outfit ?

I went to a San Juan 'Clave one year and the airline lost my luggage,
a couple of fly rods, vest, waders, boots, the whole shebang off on
some magical mystery tour. Luckily I was able to spend the night in
a hotel close to the ABQ airport and the airline delivered the gear
in the middle of the night averting a costly disaster.

What with post 9-11 carry-on restrictions and the rest of the folderol,
I'm wondering if something like this might be worth it.

I've not used this company, but I've been known to ship stuff ahead of
time via
a tracking carrier, such as UPS, with good luck. At $95.00 (minimum for
Luggagefree), you can ship a LOT of stuff via UPS. They won't be waiting
for you
at the baggage claim area, but most carriers have offices at or near the
major
airports that will hold the packages for arrival.
