These days most travelers can't imagine the idea of not having wheels on their luggage. The idea of having to carry your bag across a huge airport or terminal seems like it would have happened in the old days. Well it wasnt that long ago. Rolling luggage was only invented in 1989. Thats right before 1989 there were no wheels on luggage. Bob Plath was a Northwest airline pilot, and was tired of carrying his bag through every airport he stopped at. So he built the first piece of wheeled luggage in his garage. As he used this "rolling luggage" everyone who saw it wanted one also. Bob Plath is the founder of TravelPro. FastForward to today.
