SUDBURY, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/21/08 -- Suitcase.com, one of the first in the industry
to sell luggage, travel bags,
briefcases and messenger bags online, now offers checkpoint-friendly
briefcases and laptop cases by Briggs and Riley, Pathfinder and Victorinox
Swiss Army. The computer bags were developed to follow in close compliance
with TSA (Transportation Security Administration) checkpoint-friendly
guidelines.
"Since August, TSA has allowed laptops to remain in checkpoint-friendly
briefcases at the security checkpoint in airports," says John Ebb, owner of
Suitcase.com, aka Bretts Luggage & Gifts. "Not only do these laptop cases
offer convenience and less stress during the security screening, but they
protect the computer on the X-ray belt."
In response, Pathfinder introduced the CompuBrief(TM) and Victorinox Swiss
Army released the Security Fast Pass(TM) in October. These briefcases offer
a book-style opening that allows the laptop to remain in a travel bag and
lay flat on the X-ray belt without cords and other accessories obstructing
the view. Briggs and Riley also recently introduced the SpeedThru(TM)
Sleeve, which protects the laptop on the security belt and eliminates the
need for airport trays.
TSA checkpoint-friendly guidelines for computer bags include:
-- A designated laptop-only section.
-- The laptop-only section completely unfolds to lie flat on the X-ray
belt.
-- No metal snaps, zippers or buckles inside, underneath or on top of the
laptop-only section.
-- No pockets on the inside or outside of the laptop-only section.
-- Nothing packed in the laptop-only section other than the computer
itself.
Suitcase.com offers top brands on all luggage, tote bags, briefcases and
computer bags, including: Delsey, Samsonite, Hartmann, Briggs and Riley,
Travelpro, Pathfinder, Acegene and Victorinox.
