Many consumers now make use of London airport transfers and one of the reasons why these services are so popular may be connected to the amount of luggage people take with them on holiday. After all, when individuals arrange a London airport taxi, they do not have to worry about hauling their belongings around with them on public transport.

According to research conducted by Samsonite, a third of Brits took home comforts abroad with them this summer.

Meanwhile, one in five of the consumers polled revealed they had found broken items in their luggage in the past. This may in part explain why there was a 41 per cent rise in sales of hard suitcases this summer, the firm suggested.

Among the most common home comforts that people packed to take with them on their vacations were slippers, dressing gowns, laptops, iPods, Kindles, cuddly toys and irons.

Nearly one in three respondents (30 per cent) noted they need at least two items that remind them of home. Being able to climb into a London airport taxi could make getting these belongings to and from their transport hubs easier.

Commenting on the ...
... figures, Samsonite’s Lisa Jermy said: “The combination of travellers packing both fragile and sentimental items goes some way to explaining why this year has seen such a large increase in the sale of hard cases.

“As a luggage brand we understand that today’s traveller is increasingly looking for durable yet lightweight, maneuverable pieces which actively ease the stress of travel and eliminates the likelihood of breakages”.

These days, many consumers head online when they are seeking to purchase products, including luggage and other holiday essentials. The same is true of London airport transfers. It can be quick and easy for people to find what they are looking for over the web.
