Ever try packing things for a 10-day trip into a carry-on? Most frequent fliers are guilty of that. Traveling, whether for business or pleasure, has become increasingly stressful, including the hassle of lost baggage, TSA searches, long waits at baggage claim and packing.
Now, though, you no longer have to worry about squeezing that extra shirt into your suitcase, realizing that you need room for your toothbrush too. Flight 001 Spacepak System not only helps with suitcase organization, but also compresses its contents, keeping all of your private items separate and tidy. Flight 001 Spacepak System is intended for the urban frequent flyer. The modern traveler knows the importance of preparedness and organization. Always on the go, this global navigator has a keen eye for design and avoids checking in luggage whenever possible, seeking a seamless travel experience. Design elements were added for functionality and style, such as a color-coded system for easy identification. Our creative aim was to change the way travelers think of packing a standard black trolley. Designed with reusability in mind, our packaging is inspired by Ziploc bags. We wanted to make the packaging as functional for packing as the product itself.
