I oftentimes am a “solo producer” traveling to different cities to make an event “happen.” And I typically have luggage AND equipment that I need to get to the venue.

With the costs that many airlines now levy on luggage – especially heavy items, like equipment – have you considered shipping your clothing and equipment ahead of time?

Sure, you can use FEDEX or UPS or even the U.S. Mail to ship ahead of time.

But companies like Sports Express (http://www.sportsexpress.com) ship many, many fewer items, and their focus is luggage – they KNOW you need this stuff to arrive when and where you want it. All items are looked after by a “travel concierge,” so if they determine that something might get delivered late, they go ahead and expedite the item free of charge to get it there on time.
