Just was stuck for a few days in the Alps with the overhead bin luggage for Bali on the way back to SF, so i feel your pain.
How would you prefer to have it handled?
Clothes are probably a good place to start. Having a simple cupboard draw that is automatically sent would be good (cost permitting).
- Most people shouldn't have a problem with you searching through this sort of thing for illicit goods
- I think it is mainly clothes that take up the bulk of space in peoples suitcases
- Clothes can be compressed for space/cost efficiency
Edit: added an extra thing!
Thanks!
Something as automatic as possible would be dang neat.
If (as is likely) something 'magic' isn't feasible, the second best way would probably be to adopt the method used by some managed partial-ownership properties - everything goes into a luggage trunk that smoothly vanishes into storage upon leaving and is there and available on arriving, possibly along with some basic packing/unpacking of clothes and so on.
A mostly-painless way of dealing with insurance and the related listing of contents would best a must, as would some kind of interfacing with customs.
