00:00Hey, travelers! Ever had that nerve-wracking moment waiting for your luggage at the airport?
00:05Well, you might be making a common mistake that could cost you your precious suitcase.
00:09Did you know that in 2022, a whopping 26 million pieces of luggage were lost,
00:15delayed, or damaged? And the color of your suitcase could be a big part of the problem.
00:20Airlines have warned that choosing black, navy, or gray luggage is a big no-no. These colors blend
00:27in with the crowd, making it easy for someone else to grab your bag by mistake. If you must
00:32use these colors, make your bag stand out with a bright luggage tag or ribbon. It's a simple trick
00:37that can save you a lot of hassle. Even airport bosses agree. Frankfurt Airport's Stefan Schulte
00:43says black suitcases are the hardest to identify, leading to more mix-ups. And here's another tip.
00:49Soft-cover suitcases are actually more durable than hard covers. So, choose wisely and avoid
00:55travel nightmares. Remember, standing out is better than blending in when it comes to
00:59your luggage. Let's not be one of the 26 million lost bags. Safe travels, everyone!
