Luggage type

• Trunk - Wooden box, generally much larger than other types of goods. Trunks come in smaller sizes as in the case of footlockers and the larger ones are called steamers. Currently stems are more often used for storage than for transport. Items large enough to request luggage are now usually shipped in case of transportation. Some of the better known rod makers are Louis Vuitton, Goyard, Moynat, M. M. Secor and Leatheroid.
• Suitcase - Wheezing or wheeled suitcase, and soft or hard side suitcase.
• Garment bag - A suitcase style that folds on itself to allow long clothing such as a suit or dress to be wrapped so as not to tangle. Garment bags come with both wheel and non-wheel models, and are usually one of the largest parts of every set of items
• Tote - Small bag, usually worn on the shoulder
• Wool bags - Barrel-shaped bags, almost exclusively on the soft side, are perfect for a relaxing trip, with few organizations in it.
• Carpet bags - travel bags made from traditional carpets.
• Packaging Cubes - Small square bags of different sizes and colors created to keep luggage organized and save space
• Check Bags - Bags designed specifically to protect routine gate check items, such as strollers and car seats

Recommended luggage

• Keys - keys serve many purposes; deterrent to dishonest airport workers and locks also help keep the luggage closed during handling. Since 2003, most keys are integrated into the trunk using the TSA Lock standard developed by Travel Sentry to allow opening by the US Transportation Security Administration.
• Expandable Luggage - a suitcase that can unzip to expand the packing space more.

Wheel

Baggage carriers - light wheeled carts or harems that can be placed temporarily or temporarily attached to trunks at least until the 1930s, such as in US patent 2,132,316 "baggage carriers" by Anne W. Newton (filed 1937, published 1938). This was refined over the next few decades, as reflected in patents such as US patent 2,650,105 A "Baggage Train" (filed 1949, published 1953) and US patent 2,670,969 "harness Baggage trunk, both by Kent R. Costikyan. it was external to the suitcase. Patent was issued for wheeled luggage - wheeled rod in 1887, and wheeled suitcase in 1945 - but this was unsuccessfully commercialized.

The first commercially successful rolling luggage was discovered in 1970, when Bernard D. Sadow applied for a patent granted in 1972 as US patent 3,653,474 for "Rolling Luggage". The patent application mentions increased air travel, and "baggage handling [may] be the greatest difficulty faced by air passengers", as the background of this discovery. Sadow's four-wheeled suitcase, drawn with a loose string, was then defeated by a suitcase that had two wheels and was pulled in an upright position using a long handle. It was discovered in 1987 by US pilot Robert Plath, and was originally sold to crew members. Plath then commercialized them, after the travelers became interested after seeing them used by crew members, and founded the Travelpro company, which markets the suitcases under the trademark "Rollaboard". The terms rollaboard and roll-aboard are used in general. Although originally designed to be used (to navigate through large terminals), as implied by the analogue name, a similar design is also used for checked baggage.

Recently, four-wheeled luggage with casters has become popular, especially since its use by Samsonite in the 2004 version of their signature Silhouette. These are similar in design to two wheel roll-aboards, with a vertical orientation and a pulling handle, but are designed to be pushed alongside or in front of the traveler, rather than being pulled behind them. These are often referred to as "spinner" baggage, because they can spin about their vertical axis.

Sadow links the late discovery of a suitcase on wheels with a "macho object" in which "a man does not want to accept a suitcase with a wheel". Others attribute the final invention to "the number of baggage porters with carts in the 1960s, the ease of curbside drop-offs at smaller airports and heavy iron casters then available."

Hold the suitcase

Some vehicles have special areas for luggage to be held, called "baggage" cars in the United States. Items stored in suspension are known as suitcases . A typical example is a suitcase. If traveling with coach passengers is often expected to place their luggage in the hold, before boarding. Airplanes are burdened by professional baggage handlers.

Handbags (default)

Passengers are allowed to carry a smaller number of bags with them in the vehicle, these are known as handbags (more commonly referred to as items in in North America) valuables and goods needed during the trip. Usually there is storage space provided for handbags, either under the seat, or in a locker above the head. Trains often have luggage racks at the end of the train near the door, or on chairs if there is a compartment. There is a difference of view between North America and Europe with regards to the number of luggage being taken to the plane. In North America there is a great debate as to whether passengers carry too many bags on board and that their weight can be a risk to other passengers and flight safety. US airlines began introducing weight and size restrictions for hand baggage. While in Europe, many airlines, especially low-cost carriers, enact what is commonly known as the "one bag rule". These are restrictions imposed to stop overweight on airplanes and airlines claim that this policy enables them to speed up aircraft boarding. Airports in Europe have been campaigning with the European Commission in an effort to overturn this innate baggage allowance. They claim that it affects duty-free retail sales and other airports and reduces their revenue.

Baggage/reclamation claim

At the airport terminal, baggage claim or reclamation area is the area in which the arriving passenger claims the checked baggage after dropping off the aircraft. In most airports and many railway stations, luggage is delivered to passengers in the luggage carousel.

Left luggage

Left luggage, also baggage storage or bag storage, is a place where one can keep luggage for a while so there is no need to carry it. Left luggage is not identical to lost luggage. Often at the airport or train station there may be a staff 'left luggage counter' or just a coin operated or automatic locker system. With the threat of higher terrorism around the world, this type of public storage is disappearing.

Military baggage

Baggage can also refer to human and military freight trains, both military and personal, which usually follow the pre-modern forces in the campaign. The baggage was considered a strategic resource and guarded by the rear guard. The loss is considered to weaken and demoralize the army, leading to such a rearguard attack at the Battle of Agincourt.
