Weight scale can save money

The weight of a suitcase, backpack or travel bag is checked using an app. This has the advantage of a large, sharp screen, which is not surprisingly broken past check-in due to rough handling of the luggage.

You can save the weight and give it a name, which you can use to create a list of contents for future trips. Next flight booking can then be made well-informed and you can save a lot of money by choosing the right fare.

No batteries: Not a Dangerous Good

Our handle scales are made exclusively from sustainable materials wherever technically possible. They are robust and durable. The built-in electronics comply with all regulations and are certified.

They meet the regulations and recommendations A186 of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulation and do not fall under dangerous goods according to UN 3508 or UN 3499 Provision. They are not declared as dangerous goods.

Avoid unexpected charges

Impressive how convenient it is

The integrated weight indicator  from Huckets in a travel suitcase offers several compelling advantages:

Fast and convenient weighing option: The integrated weight indicator eliminates the need to use a separate scale or to search for a public weighing facility in airport or train station halls.

Travelers can simply pick up their luggage and read the weight immediately.

Avoiding excess baggage fees: One of the main advantages of the integrated weight indicator is the ability to avoid possible excess baggage fees. By knowing the weight of their luggage in advance, travellers can better plan their luggage and remove superfluous or unnecessary items if necessary.

Precise weight announcement: Unlike external scales, which can potentially be inaccurate, integrated weight indicators in suitcases provide a precise measurement of the weight. This helps to obtain accurate information about the weight of the luggage and to ensure that it complies with the applicable weight restrictions.

 

A no-brainer to use

Easy to use: Using the integrated weight indicator is extremely simple and does not require any special skills or knowledge. Travelers can simply pick up their luggage and read the weight within the huckets-app[1] of their mobile phone.

Space-saving integration: Our integrated weight indicators take up minimal space in the suitcase and thus do not affect the available storage volume.

User can organize it’s travel items set by weight using Huckets application. Throughout of using this application user can define essential items weight and before travel create the list and get approximate weight immediately. This will help to choose and but the most suitable ticket for travel. User can create special lists (e.g. holiday in summer, holiday in winter, business trip etc) and add items for trip organizing. This future will help to do not forget important items as well as optimize travel preparation procedure.

The scale app

The integrated weight indicator is based on the integration of a small scale into the suitcase handle.

This scale is able to precisely measure the weight of the suitcase and display it within the huckets app (App available as white solution, to be seamlessly integrated into an eventually existing App.)

The results can be stored and conveniently retrieved by the user whenever required.

Huckets App

"Our battery-free suitcase handle scale works without batteries, so a checked suitcase is not a dangerous good and can be carried without any problems. Huckets technology is patent pending and unrivaled.

Axel F.

"The weighing data is displayed on the mobile phone and can be saved. As the scale is built into the suitcase, bag or backpack, you cannot forget to take it with you or misplace it. Weight control is possible at any time ad hoc to have a safe feeling when checking in at the airport.

Why weight watching on luggage is so important?

The Business Model of Low-Cost Airlines

Why They Seem So Cheap at First Glance

Low-cost airlines often save significantly on personnel costs by offering online check-in only or by charging hefty fees for airport check-in.

Hand luggage remains a critical factor. According to a 2014 ruling by the European Court of Justice (ECJ), hand luggage must „always remain free.“

The challenge is that there are no universal regulations governing the size and weight of hand luggage.

Airlines set their own maximum sizes and weight limits, which also allow them to impose surcharges if these limits are exceeded.

Be Careful with Hand Luggage

Cost Traps Due to Lack of Standards

For example, an Irish low-cost provider only allows a small piece of hand luggage, such as a laptop bag, free of charge.

Depending on the route, larger hand luggage items cost between six and thirty-six euros when booked online. At the counter on site, however, the cost rises to 20 to 38 euros per item.

It gets even more expensive at boarding, when it’s almost too late — you could be charged up to 46 euros. Considering that flight tickets sometimes cost only 10 to 15 euros, these fees are significant in percentage terms.

Other budget airlines are more accommodating: a small piece of hand luggage may be free. Larger items, such as a rolling trolley, cost at least 7.99 euros.

It’s important to note that airlines often change their size and weight guidelines for hand luggage. This is, of course, systematic, as uncertainty increases the likelihood of passengers falling into cost traps.

That’s why it’s crucial to always check the permitted dimensions before departure and to measure and weigh your luggage carefully when packing.

 

 

At least there is already a “motion for a resolution on standard dimensions for hand luggage”. The EU Parliament’s resolution on uniform pricing and size requirements for hand luggage on airplanes was successful. The EU Commission has been called upon to propose measures for implementation
