Airlines Not Choosy About Losing Luggage
By Todd Kempinger
If you think the airlines only lose luggage belonging to the Average Joe, guess again. Just ask the six American-based professional golfers whose luggage was recently lost by the airlines when flying to Carnoustie, Scotland to play in the British Open. That would include their clubs, too. Or ask Katherine Heigel (Dr.Izzie from Greys Anatomy) whose luggage was lost last week by American Airlines when returning from New York City to Los Angeles where she has been filming 27 Dresses.
Airlines are continuing to struggle with the problem of lost, delayed and mishandled baggage, and its not expected to get better anytime soon. According to the July 2007 Air Travel Consumer Report issued by the US Department of Transportation, in May 2007, airlines mishandled 5.93 bags per 1000 passengers; a 25.2% increase over May 2006. Summer is one of the busiest times of the year for air travel because of family vacations, sporting events and off-site business functions, which have compounded an already existing problem of airport congestion. Add that on top of other issues such as heightened security measures, long luggage check-in lines and an increase in the number of mishandled bags, and you have a lot of frustrated travelers on your hands.
There is an alternative to help travelers eliminate some of the stress and headaches associated with air travel; ship your luggage ahead. Todays savvy travelers have discovered a way to completely avoid the hassles of checked baggage by shipping their bags door-to-door in advance of their trip. Companies such as The Luggage Club, will pick-up your luggage, sports equipment or goods at your home, office or location of choice, and deliver them directly to your final destination, and return them again if you prefer.

Making memories in Boracay
The first time I ever went to Boracay was just after my senior year in high school. My twin sister, an older sister plus her friend, and I filled a giant duffel bag with canned goods and flew to the island, planning to bunk in with our aunt, who was staying at a little cottage called Gunding Torres for P300 a night. The year was 1999, and couples were still running around the beach naked.
