For more than fifity years, Frommer’s® Travel Guides have earned the trust of travelers worldwide with their savvy trip-planning advice on destinations, accommodations, and everything in between. Starting in 1957 when Arthur Frommer published his bestselling guide, Europe on 5 Dollars a Day, travelers have relied on Frommer’s for practical tips and strategies to get the most pleasure and value from their travel dollars.

Now a new line of luggage bearing the Frommer’s name promises to be equal in stature to the legendary travel guru and his bestselling guidebooks.

Each piece in the new Frommer’s Luggage line captures the excitement and anticipation of traveling while delivering all the practical details necessary for maximum travel comfort. Frommer’s Luggage is designed for all travelers—from college students to honeymooners to seasoned business travelers to empty nesters—wherever their travels take them. Whether they go by plane, train, automobile or ship, travelers can rely on Frommer’s lightweight luggage to deliver durability, ease of handling, and sophisticated good looks through all their adventures.

The Frommer’s Luggage line utilizes a patent-pending fiberglass frame construction for pieces that are up to 40 percent lighter than other comparable luggage available on the market today. The rugged polyester fabric withstands rough handling and all weather conditions, while the fully-lined interior features webbed tie-down straps for organizing packed clothes and mesh pockets for personal items. In addition, the lid has a zip-out “suiter” panel, cinch strap for hanging garments, two tie-downs straps, and a zippered mesh pocket. Uprights also include a wet pack.

For extra versatility, each piece of Frommer’s Luggage comes with a detachable “add-a-bag” strap for carrying extra bags “hands-free.” Travelers will also appreciate the front panel design that includes two packing pockets and the trolley uprights that expand two inches for extra packing capacity as well as the lockable self-repairing nylon coil zippers on the main opening. Equally impressive and highly reflective of the Frommer’s approach to traveling are the many details engineered in the luggage for ultimate ease of handling. Some of the added features that make Frommer’s Luggage more convenient for travelers are:

• Protected Velocity™ inline skate wheels
• One–button operation locking trolley handle system
• A zippered back pocket with integrated ID tag on all uprights
• A removable suiter panel which includes a padded fold bar in all uprights
• Top and side “comfort” carrying handles
• Molded polypropylene curb guards and kickplate

In addition, each piece in the Frommer’s Luggage line has undergone over 40,000 cycles of testing to exceed the highest of standards of durability. If something can happen to your luggage, Frommer’s Luggage has tested for it—from being dropped on floors or down staircases, to the reliable function of mechanisms such as locks, handles, zippers and wheels! Frommer’s Luggage is also backed by a worldwide limited 10-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship.

Available in classic black and dashing burgundy, Frommer’s initial luggage collection features six pieces that are designed to meet the most common traveling needs: a personal bag, trolley tote and garment bag, as well as expandable suiter trolleys in 21 inches, 25 inches and 29 inches.

Frommer’s Luggage is now available for purchase on eBags.com and other online retailers. Individual pieces in the collection range at a promo retail price of $29.99 to $119.99.
