replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern A5 Wheels! They only became common in the 1990s. How did we do it before? #TravelSkills

A5. Advances in luggage? Spinner wheels. Hard shell cases. Single-bar handles. Bad ideas? Expansion zippers and front pockets that explode the size of carry-ons. #TravelSkills #travel

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A5. We love @away luggage because itās easy to navigate (love the 4 wheels!) and it works as a portable charger too which takes the fear out of traveling with no juice! Also, itās super cute #TravelSkills

replying to @TheTerribleHook @TheTerribleHook @travelskills I continue to be shocked and disappointed by how so many hotels and resorts miss the opportunity to do great things with their key cards. Hire actual artists to do the graphics! Make the key cards pocket-size collectibles as well as tools! #travelskills

replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern TIP Not all bags are created equal. Spend a few minutes feeling them out in a store instead of buying them online. Also, spend more to get one that will last longer. #TravelSkills

A5 Definitely the four wheel easy rollers and lightweight designs. Like our latest from @TravelProIntl #TravelSkills

A5: Wheels are a happy thing :) I for one though have no use for smart bags, think theyāre annoying and now a travel problem #travelskills

A5: Wheels were a complete game-changer, and we also like the trend toward ultra-light luggage: https://t.co/YVFqw1XUrE #TravelSkills

replying to @Heather_Poole I also love @Bryantparkhotel in NYC because I love staying near the park. Itās so Christmasy this time of year. The rooms are modern with hardwood floor. I šhotels with hardwood floors! Feels airy & clean (itās the black and gold hotel in the photo) #TravelSkills

A3 I appreciate a theme or artworks that convey the place you're visiting, rather than some trendy corporate look. Love old hotels where the history shows through, too #TravelSkills

A4. @MiddleSeat just put out a ranking, https://t.co/GDXALnyzW8 and I'm here for it. DIA has great food, only a handful of really far gates; @TSA has literally recognized me TWICE and the bathrooms are always clean. #TravelSkills

A5. Wheels. Especially 4 wheels which each move independently. Also, carbon fiber for strong, yet lightweight luggage. We love our @SamsoniteUSA Featherlite bags-they never break, they just keep going mile after mile. #travelskills

Some airports are both great and terrible depending on the terminal. I like FRA and MUC and there are even parts of LGA that I like while other parts are the depths of hades. IAH is improving. BLQ is ugh as is FCO #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A1: Design is not a decider in picking a hotel for me. I just need a clean bed and a bathroom most of the time. Price can be a decider depending on the trip. #travelskills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A5 Colors that aren't black. I marked up my black bag with fabric paint so it would stand out better, but boy, waiting at a luggage carousel for YOUR black bag to roll past within a field of black bags is a special sort of misery. #travelskills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills #TravelSkills making them lighter, stronger and having compression built into them. Improved wheels and telescoping handles. Having a rechargable battery is for me a nice to have but actually rarely use it. @away my current fave

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis An excellent hotel bathroom would have strong water pressure, heated floors, heated towel racks, a clawfoot tub and separate marble shower and high-quality shampoo and conditioner. Too much? LOL #TravelSkills
