The nearly 120-year-old German company Rimowa is at the forefront of integrating smart technologies into the flow of travel. The brand’s latest line of luggage—which includes the Limbo, shown here ($1,005)—features its new Electronic Tag system that allows you to check in your suitcase from anywhere using an app on your smartphone. Once checked in, you can simply drop off your bag at any partnering airlines’ (which currently include Lufthansa and Eva Air) automated check-in stations and continue to your gate. The sleek, durable Electronic Tag cases also feature TSA–approved combination locks that ensure the safety of your belongings once the bag is out of your sight.
