Crowded Planes and New Luggage Restrictions Present Additional Hassles for Thanksgiving Travelers

BOSTON, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelers headed to the airport this Thanksgiving will face a challenging and unpredictable set of circumstances. Airlines have cut domestic flight capacity by ten percent, and are offering fewer nonstop flights. As a result, travelers can expect crowded planes and more of the hassles associated with connections such as lost or delayed baggage. The recent introduction of fees for first and second checked bags will add yet another element of uncertainty to the travel experience. Fortunately, Luggage Forward (www.luggageforward.com), the luggage shipping company, is providing travelers an alternative to carrying and checking bags by offering luggage delivery from doorstep to destination, guaranteed.

"For smoother travels, especially during the hectic holiday season, we invite travelers to leave the luggage, golf clubs and skis to us," said Aaron Kirley, co-founder of Luggage Forward. "We handle all of the details, so our customers can breeze through the airport, knowing their baggage will be waiting at their final destination, not the other way around."

Luggage Forward's door-to-door luggage delivery service allows passengers to travel with total peace of mind. Through innovative technology, a worldwide network of shipping partners and honest, unparalleled customer care, Luggage Forward carefully manages and monitors the shipping process to ensure on-time delivery. The company routinely goes the extra mile, even alerting travelers by cell phone or PDA as soon as luggage arrives at its final destination.

Luggage Forward's door-to-door rates start at $60 and include an unmatched domestic on-time guarantee. Travelers can simply book online or by phone, select a convenient pickup time and leave the rest to Luggage Forward. An agent will pick up the bags and send them on their way, no special packaging required.
