Retro Airline Bags

B.O.A.C, Pan Am, T.W.A - these are all acronyms from a bygone age. A time when Jason King, James Bond or Simon Templar would be seen boarding a flight for Geneva, Rome or Tangiers - certainly somewhere exotic. A time when air travel was exciting and aspirational and even coined a new term - The Jet Set.


Although these airlines have long been confined to the departure lounge of history, their logos and marques live on. These bags faithfully reproduce the look and feel of the must-have accessories that would have been provided to regular passengers and which were used as hand luggage on flights with these airlines. In fact, The Beatles thought these Airline Bags were so cool they even had some made with B.E.A.T.L.E.S. inscribed on them. ZMRJEY3GGDQM
