by Remin baggage cart, ever since my first flight aboard Air France Concorde to Paris CDG
from JFK.
I never thought I would change this combo until recently, now with extra restrictions on
carry on luggage, it's hard to get the Kart-A-Bag unit on in addition to my bags, so I went for
the finest in rolling carry on baggage, Briggs & Riley with the "Simple As That" Lifetime
Warranty."
"It's a good thing I did, because recently while getting on a friend's yacht in
Sausalito CA with music and video equipment for the annual Fleet Week Blue Angels show, our
Briggs & Riley baggage loaded with expensive video equipment and microphones fell in to the
water at dockside to my horror...but miracle of miracles, the Briggs Riley baggage floated!
All the equipment was bone dry when we fished it out of the waters of San Francisco Bay with
the boat hook. What a great feature!"
You can say I'm a happy camper, because if it had been my well traveled Halliburton aluminum
case, it likely would have sank to the bottom with all my gear and irreplaceable camera
masters inside, plus fine Superlux and Sennheiser microphones..no doubt about it.
My new travel profile:
Jon Hammond old travel profile:
Jon Hammond recommends Briggs & Riley Travelware for the professional traveler, with The only
warranty that covers it all...B&R says "If your Briggs & Riley bag is ever broken or damaged,
even if it was caused by an airline, we will repair it free of charge. Simple as that!"
"And it floats!" Try the new extra rugged Baseline models.
