Guinea Pig
Airport lounge.
During my month-long trip I knew I’d put the Luxirare travel bag through the ultimate test. This bag made my life very easy, taking my laptop in and out out of the bag was a breeze anywhere I went, whether it was on the Eurostar, airplane, airport lounges, train stations….I was also able to whip out my camera at any moment, and all of these devices were kept in one bag which was the best part- no dangling camera and no hiding laptop. At any given moment my most important gadgets were closeby. The only complaint I have is how annoying it is to get internet when you are travelling. Why isn’t internet access free yet?? (This is a rhetorical question obviously) And why does my laptop even attempt to join a network when 1.) it usually requires a password 2.) it prompts you to pay for it 3.) it connects but the connection is so weak that you might as well not use it??
Anyway, the wifi thing is out of my control but I am considering an upgrade for this bag. Lots of people asked if this bag is very heavy, it wasn’t. Considering everyone brings a laptop on board anyway adding another lightweight DSLR (Nikon d90) + 1 more lense wasn’t a hassle at all…But if I could upgrade this bag I’d add wheels and a extendable handle so that you can wheel it around the ground instead of carrying it.
Is that what a VIP airport lounge looks like, or is that just a normal lounge?
Your bag definitely looks like its in GREAT condition for you lugging it around. Most of my bags die within a month cause I throw it around so much, but yours is obviously much much better quality so that would explain why x;
I love your bag Luxirare! It’s seems so functional and it’s incredibly stylish! As for the net- when I travel I don’t even bother to try and connect! It’s pointless!! x
Haha, this bag will be the future IT bag for people like us – can’t live without our camera and technology!
you just took two of my most frequent and irritating problems
and solved them as one.
hoping this goes on the market soon — same with the upgrade.
Ahhhh this bag is just amazing, sounds like a dream. Generally I find myself juggling all of my electronics or not carrying any at all.
i love this bag. not only it seems very practical, but it looks fantastic. the weight is always a concern. i can’t wait to see what you’ll do with wheels (about the aesthetics), you seem to always solve those problems… is your camera safe in it? I mean I could not afford to lose my camera, or even damage it.
I wish the internet was free everywhere too! Love your bag.
Love the look of this bag! It’s a perfect travel bag because it does not look like one, and you’re right, very secure and not screaming “Tourist!”
I also wonder why internet is not omnipresent and free. Patience….
i hate anything with wheels. don’t turn it into luggage
maybe u could make a carryon version instead
@Mira I agree somewhat, makes it look “too functional” or something, but it would make this bag much more comfortable.
maybe make the wheel/handle part detachable. sort of like this (http://www.target.com/Ladies-Leather-Detachable-Laptop-Removable/dp/B000P9CV8U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&searchView=grid5&keywords=Detachable-Wheels-Luggage&fromGsearch=true&sr=1-1&qid=1288327691&rh=&searchRank=target104545&id=Ladies%20Leather%20Detachable%20Laptop%20Removable&node=1038576&searchSize=30&searchPage=1&searchNodeID=1038576&searchBinNameList=subjectbin,price,target_com_primary_color-bin,target_com_size-bin,target_com_brand-bin&frombrowse=0), but, you know… not ugly.
ahhh, sorry my link stretched the page out.
My dad uses a Sprint USB modem for travel. Not sure if it works overseas, but it has a fairly strong connection in places in the states.
Something similar to this thing:

I love the rain in the background effect.
You should seriously think about building up this bag into a major voice in this niche. Technology + Design
