The Inventor OF Wheeled Luggage

Posted on December 27, 2011 by admin

Leave it to a pilot to come up with this idea! After years of dragging, carrying, and lugging bags all over the place Bob Plath.  In 1989 Bob Plath said that wheels on the luggage would eliminate the need to lug all those bags and ease the strain on the back. An added advantage to luggage with wheels is that it allowed the user to move through travel terminals with more ease and in less time.

After the first wheeled luggage was created Bob Plath began the company Travelpro. From this time on, the quality of travel was changed. Eventually all luggage companies incorporated wheels on their luggage.

Travelers rarely will find luggage now without wheels. They were created in an effort to make travel easier. Now even backpacks and tote bags have wheels. Wheels are also found on kid’s luggage. Computer bags and duffel bags as well as garment bags also have wheels. Read more »

Here is some general information on Germany and the national currency (Euro) that I hope will be useful for anyone planning a trip here.

One of the first things you will need to do when planning your trip to Germany is convert your national currency to the Euro. To do this you can either get it prior to your departure at your local bank, or get it at the arrival airport in Germany at a currency conversion table.

When converting currency at the airport table keep in mind that most are not open 24/7. Do not be surprised if the denomination of your converted currency is much less than that of your local currency. In recent years the Euro has been doing extremely well. Read more »
