Ban the Trunki!!!

[leadman]

I'm seriously looking at starting a petition on Change.org to ban these horrendous animals/bags from airports! After being viscously attacked by two of these woefully designed, plastic fantastic, poor wheel based critters driven by juveniles without proper training, I ended up on my posterior at FRA entangled in two Trunki straps, mauled by a lion and "hello kitty".......


I just need 100,000 signatures to get rid of the scourges of the airport......


(it is the playground of course)

Why aim so low - why not have the petition to ban the child from airports?

I want an adult Trunki, so my husband can wheel me around the airport and I just get to sit and go weeeeeeehhhhhheeeeeeeeeeee and point at shops.

I reckon we need to install technology that if anyone stops in front of me laser canons vaporise them.

Alternatively can we just get you a bull bar?

But I am not sure that I would have enough room for a run-up!

"Accidentally" trip/upset the trunki

The problem with Trunkis is the kid tends to swing out from behind the parent and take out unsuspecting passengers.
And then there's the random pax who try to cut between me and my roll aboard and then get grumpy that I 'hit them' when in fact they hit my suitcase handle

God help us when my daughter is let loose with one of these Trunki suitcases.

Keep the Trunkis but mandate that all children must ride inside a Trunki?

You are welcome to borrow my laser canon.

Better to licence all trunki users and parents thereof.

My 3 year old has the hello Kitty one (It was a gift, I didn't buy it) and I can confirm that for the 4 minutes in total that she actually sits on it, it is useful. I can tell by the wight of it that she's there and I don't have to keep my eye on her at all times. For the other 99% of the time it is a royal pain in the cough as I obviously end up carrying it. It's bulky, heavy, difficult to carry and most of all, it's bright pink which doesn't do much for my "sophisticated business traveler" look.
