Planet Traveler introduces the first ever full-line of smart luggage. Four years in development has achieved the ideal balance between the design expected in premium luggage, and the most integrated connected technology ever offered.

Miami, FL, May 5, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Born from 30 years of experience in the luggage industry, the team at Planet Traveler is introducing the true next generation of luggage. Designed to specifically balance technology, style, and function, the Space Case 1 luggage line is engineered to be the ultimate travel companion.

“Consumers are reacting positively to an emerging trend of building luggage around tech.” said Planet Traveler CEO Harry Sheikh. “We have actually been working on the Space Case 1 for over four years, and believe we have finally perfected the integration of tech into our beautifully designed luggage. We didn’t set out to just design a smart suitcase. Our goal was to be the first to offer a full line of attractive smart luggage.”
