Federal Express Corporation (FedEx), a leading global express transportation company, has partnered with Bagbooking to offer a door-to-door luggage service in the Netherlands. This new service allows travelers to journey within Europe without carrying their luggage, as FedEx Special Services handles collection, transport, and delivery.

Marius Penninks, Vice President Network Operations Europe at FedEx, stated: “Het vervoeren van uiteenlopende goederen, van trouwringen tot medische apparatuur, is onze kerntaak. Dankzij onze Special Services divisie hebben we veel ervaring met het ophalen en afleveren van bagage bij reizigers thuis. Samen met Bagbooking bieden we deze unieke service in Nederland, waardoor reizigers de vrijheid hebben om te reizen op de manier die hen het beste uitkomt.”

Bagbooking co-founder Menno Troost explained: “Onze samenwerking met FedEx was een logische keuze vanwege hun uitgebreide netwerk in Europa en hun wereldwijde bereik. Dit past perfect bij onze ambitie om onze service internationaal uit te breiden. Wij hebben alle vertrouwen in onze gezamenlijke innovatiekracht.”

The service aims to provide convenience for travelers who wish to avoid long check-in lines or lost luggage issues. By traveling without baggage, customers can choose smaller rental cars or opt for motorcycle tours more easily. It also benefits those attending group events like conferences or sports activities by allowing them to proceed directly to their schedules.

Menno Troost added: “Bagbooking is ontstaan vanuit onze eigen ervaringen en observaties dat reizen met koffers vaak een uitdaging is. Na duizenden koffers vervoert te hebben sinds de start in 2021, blijkt er een duidelijke behoefte te zijn aan kofferloos reizen. Gezinnen met jonge kinderen, minder mobiele reizigers, golfers, skiërs en anderen die zich niet langer door hun koffers willen laten beperken, maken inmiddels gebruik van onze verrassend betaalbare service."

The collaboration between Bagbooking and various partners across Europe ensures compatibility with all accommodation types capable of receiving luggage.

Travelers can book the Bagbooking service online at www.bagbooking.eu by selecting luggage size and quantity along with travel dates and destination details. Pricing depends on options chosen and destination but allows for up to 30kg per suitcase—a distinction from airline policies.

This initiative reduces baggage flow at airports like Schiphol while providing logistical advantages through secured transportation monitored via status updates.

FedEx Corp., listed on NYSE under FDX symbol with annual revenue of $88 billion offers diverse services globally while striving for carbon-neutral operations by 2040. More information about FedEx can be found at http://about.fedex.com.

Bagbooking aims to expand its innovative door-to-door baggage services throughout Europe while maintaining partnerships with hotels and travel organizations ensuring smooth customer experiences from booking until completion.
