[nfbmi-talk] Recognizing your suitcase when ttraveling?

[Marcus Simmons]

I once had an occasion to visit my cousin in Chicago, on Thanksgiving 
weekend. To help me find my suitcase, I had a yellow ribbon attached to the 
handle. I went to Detroit Metro Airport with suitcase in hand. The airline I 
was using only had two flights leaving at the time, Chicago and Miami. I did 
not know at that I had another passenger with me, Mr. Murthy.

When I got to the “Windy City” I attempted to retrieve my “Yellow Ribbon. It 
did not show up with my flight. Neighed did it show up on the next two 
flights from Detroit?

I made a report to the airline and had my suitcase delivered the next day, 
after it was retrieved from Miami!

Good evening. I always ask somebody to verify the color and the visual look 
of my suitcase before I travel. There is also usually a print tag on it with 
my name and address so that I can tell people at the very least my name.

Hadn't thought about adding a braille label, however, that would be a good 
thing. I don't have much experience with flying and the one time I did, I 
had somebody with me helping to find my luggage visually. So I won't be of 
much help in that area with conveyor belts at airport.
