Flight 001 Exclusive Items
by Joshua / August 9, 2006


I wish I traveled more. Flight 001 is a travel merchandise boutique designed in the style of a Pan-Am era first class airline cabin. The stock just about everything you need to travel in style, from Tepper Jackson passport cases to Hideo Wakamatsu carry-ons, from in-flight CD compilations to their own exclusive storage merchandise. I took some pictures during a recent visit to the new Chicago store. Jw

Expand-A Series
A lot of their merchandise focuses on getting the most into your luggage. The Expand-A-Bags come in many sizes and uses, all collapsible with sharp, utilitarian diagrams for your re-folding needs. I found the Expand-A-Bowl and Expand-A-Carrier especially amusing:

Spacepak
These seem suite more for an ex-orbital trip than an international one, but I'm a sucker for icon graphics, and these uber-organizational items make sure you know exactly what's in your bag before you open it:

Flight001 Cosmetics Cases
Deviating from the utilitarian angle, the Flight001 cosmetic cases are a bit more fun, with an embroidered motif and colors reminiscent of 50's era air travel:

Also of note, their online store is now having a significant sale on select items, and the retail locations are having an even bigger sale beginning August 10th. Just in time for my trip to NYC.

The graphics are very simple and informational.

The overall bag construction also looks great.
