Tips on where to buy your travel bag in Paraguay

Traveling is great, right? There is a lot of research on places to visit at this time of year, even more so with Carnival arriving, the country's tourist cities receive many visitors, but the main travel companion is undoubtedly the “Travel Bag”, a large part of travelers research a lot when buying your suitcase and the ideal sizes for airline standards.

The two main factors are:

  • Good price.
  • Quality.

Another common thing on a trip is excess luggage, when it comes to storing your belongings the suitcase seems to have shrunk, but relax, this is normal, sometimes we go overboard and end up taking too much, or overdoing our shopping. Excess baggage is often scary, with the increase in fees, the right thing to do is to think carefully about what to take in your suitcase, each airline has its own policy when it comes to excess baggage, and some end up charging too much for this service.

Other common questions when buying a suitcase are:

What is the ideal size?

Bags vary between airlines, the most common are 69cm, 79cm and over 80cm, so check your ticket to see what size is allowed by your airline.

With or without divider?

If you like to divide the objects in your suitcase, I recommend a suitcase with division, it makes it easier when looking for your clothes, and helps when separating or organizing your belongings.

Are suitcases with padlocks really safe?

Most bags already come with a padlock, which secures your valuables, however there are some options without this service, but generally the store offers the padlocks separately at the time of purchase.

Brazil also offers several options for handbag stores in general, in case of inconvenience, some tourists prefer to buy at their destination, instead of moving to another country, in the case of Foz do Iguaçu, at the JL Cataratas shopping mall and at shopping Catuai Palladium there are some store options of this size.

But the main focus is the shops that are worth it in Paraguay. And here are some tips!

Talking a little about the price of suitcases, don't be fooled into thinking that the price difference will be absurd, as the price difference between Brazil and Paraguay isn't that much, it all depends on the dollar exchange rate.

Suitcases in both countries range from 200,00 to 2.000,00 reais depending on the size and brand of each one, generally the more expensive ones come with a set of 3 suitcase sizes, a small, medium and large, others come with 2 sizes When it comes to toiletry bags, everything varies in price and quality, even the colors influence their price. A good suitcase lasts an average of 10 to 15 years, so if you are looking for something durable, I recommend that you invest a little more in your choice.
