Italy Trenitalia, DHL launch Easybag service
Italian railway operator Trenitalia, in collaboration with DHL, the logistics and express delivery business of Germany’s Deutsche Post AG, will launch a new service called Easybag, which will allow its clients to travel comfortably without heavy luggage, it was reported on July 11, 2005.
With the new service it will be possible to send the luggage separately beforehand and to take it back once the final destination is reached.
In order to book the Easybag service, the passengers should give the number of their international railway ticket at least 24 hours in advance and tell the operator where they want to receive their luggage.
Initially the service will be available on the international connections Italy-Austria-Italy, Italy-France-Italy and Italy-Germany-Italy and will be later extended to the other EU countries, Switzerland, Bulgaria and Romania. (ANSA).
