Best Answer

Laptops should always be placed in carry-on baggage. This is because laptops are expensive and can be damaged during the loading and unloading process of the checked baggage. If you are a frequent air traveller, you might have noticed that they really "throw" your baggages when loading onto/unloading from the aircraft.

Never Lose Your Luggage with Business Luggage Tags?

When traveling for business, be sure to label your luggage with business luggage tags. You should even tag your carry-on luggage in case you misplace it when you are in the airport. It is beneficial to label the luggage with your business name so that the luggage can be sent back to your company if it gets lost in transit. You should especially mark your laptop bag, since this would be a very expensive item to replace. Make sure that you include a phone number on your tag so that the airline can call you immediately if they find your lost luggage.
