# Luggage-Delegating Travel Tools Jib.li Enables Travelers to Delegate Travel Equipment & Avoid Fees By Simal Yilmaz | Published 2013-03-23 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jibli References: [springwise](http://www.springwise.com/tourism_travel/site-leverages-fliers-luggage-allowance-spare/) & [jib.li](http://jib.li/) Jib.li is a new platform that enables travelers to delegate their [travelling equipment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airs-luggage) and make profit off their unused space. Airlines have ridiculous carry-on limitations and fees for going over the given weight, which is a struggle I have to deal with quite frequently. I am glad that someone finally came up with an idea to profit off these unreasonable rules. The website lets travelers seek others who have available space to carry their [extra luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/share-trips) for them for a reasonable price to avoid overweight fees. They can also request people to bring them things that they need from the countries they are arriving from. Jib.li not only helps people avoid unreasonable fees, but is also a great platform that lets [light travelers and backpackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airback-flex) make some extra money. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luggage-delegating Platforms:** Companies can create platforms that allow travelers to delegate their luggage and avoid airline fees. - **Sharing Economy for Travel Equipment:** Travel companies can tap into the sharing economy by enabling users to borrow or lend travel equipment. - **Traveler-to-traveler Services:** Creating platforms that connect travelers with others who can provide services such as luggage carrying or item delivery. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Travel:** Travel companies can create innovative solutions such as luggage-delegating and sharing economy platforms to make travel more convenient and affordable. - **E-commerce:** Creating online marketplaces for travel equipment and related services can provide new revenue streams for e-commerce companies. - **Logistics:** Logistics companies can explore new business opportunities by offering services such as luggage carrying or item delivery to travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Modern Multifunctional Luggages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luggical.md) - [Hybrid Travel Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taskin-swift.md) - [Complimentary Unpacking Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unpacking-service.md) - [Traveler-Targeted Bag Rentals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-borrow-bag-library.md) - [Connective Economic Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swapper.md) - [Vibrant Luggage Connectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luggage-connector.md) - [Airline Clothing Rentals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/japan-airlines-1.md) - [Capaciously Stylish Travel Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-travel-backpacks.md) - [Lost Luggage-Focused Promotions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-relief.md)
