In a Budget Travel mobile article that I recently received online, 12.07 bags per 1000 passengers were mishandled by the airline industry last year. That's scary. Topping the list of reasons are: Forgetting to pick up your luggage in baggage claim or just leaving your carry-on bag in the overhead compartment by accident, if the routing label gets damaged or if the attendant types in the wrong destination code or if your bag is loaded onto the wrong plane. These reasons alone should make you consider packing lighter and carrying-on if possible. It is hard for me to think you will forget your carry-on if it is the only bag you travel with!

LIGHTWEIGHT DRESSES ARE A BIG HIT WITH TRAVELERS
Lightweight dresses like this one made by Sunny Leigh are perfect for the female traveler with an eye for style and a desire to pack smarter. It is made of 92% polyester and 8% spandex. That means it shouldn't need ironing and when it is worn with a complimenting pullover it looks like a skirt and sweater set too. It can be machine washed in cold water and tumble dried in a dryer or left to air-dry on a hanger. (I prefer the latter) This week it is on sale at Macy's for 1/2 of $69.00. We are talking $34.50 ladies!
