Why You Should Use a Luggage Strap

Easy Identification

If you own a popular model of suitcase, or just have one that you don’t want to stand out or attract unwanted attention, then a luggage strap will help you locate yours when you’re surrounded by luggage in an airport hall. A colored strap strap doesn’t have to be bright or loud, just visible and recognizable to you. Just a glance and you can be sure your luggage is still with you and close at hand. You’ll be able to spot it coming on the baggage carousel. If the worst happens and you have to give a description of your lost luggage, the luggage strap will be a strong identifying feature. A cross strap design such as the BlueCosto range of straps stands out better from all angles.

Secure Your Luggage

Consider getting a luggage strap with its own locking features. This provides extra reassurance and a visible deterrent to thieves, that you’ve invested in some custom security equipment that’s going to be more resistant than the average padlock. TSA straps are widely available to allow airport security personnel to inspect your luggage. The strap can also secure and conceal any outside pockets, edges and protruding features that may cause damage or access to your luggage.
