There are many suitcases in our closets that now exceed the acceptable
dimensions. I was shopping at the Samsonite outlet store a few weeks ago
and the woman was trying to push a 29" bag on me. I kept telling her it
was too big for an airplane and she kept saying it was not. Finally she
consulted a little book she had and was amazed that the total dimensions
of any checked bag are 62" (length + width + height). Then she whined
about what were they going to do with all the over-sized luggage.
