Tumi: Carry On Essentials Kit

Sick of carrying a zip-lock bag with you everywhere you fly now? I know I am– I’ve been flying several times a week lately and my “reusable” zip-lock bag full of different sized plastic bottles looks like it belongs in the garbage– tattered edges, broken closures, tears, leaks and the like. The harsh and undeniable reality is that we’re probably going to have to get used to carrying these pathetic plastic bags in our purses, backpacks, laptop bags and other carry ons for the rest of our travel lives– replacing them every single time they get ruined from the daily wear and tear of travel. Although not as good as a chartering a private jet, the travel experts at Tumi just introduced the Carry On Essentials Kit, and I’m first in line for a sample. The super-durable 1-quart sized clear plastic carrier is made of rugged vinyl with a heat sealed PVC zipper. The kit also comes with 4 clear 2oz leak resistant plastic travel bottles so you don’t have to empty your shampoo bottle out into some random vial you find in your bathroom, very nice!
