This
bag is BIG
In a bid
to knock Niek Vermeulen off his perch as the world's biggest baggist,
Virgin Atlantic has issued a bag big enough for you to climb into.
This latest Virgin advertising stunt takes a sideswipe at budget
airlines. The text is a bit longer than most baggists are used to
reading, but I do recommend you read through to the bottom - it
mentions our noble avocation!
Credit
goes to Michael Christopher Scott who sent the
picture and to Christian Mundigo & his wife Braden
Rhetts who snagged the bag from a billboard in NYC.
On
December 4, 2008, the USA business magazine Forbes
did include Rune's barf Bag Collection in an
article about odd collections.
Rune's
Barf Bag Collection now exhibits:
1827
different bags from
586
airlines in 142 countries!
How
I count bags: I count all barf bags,
airline, bus, train, boat, generic (but only once!) and advertisement
bags as long as they are barf bags. I don't count
or collect plain white bags or non barf bags.

The most newly acquired bag on display
Air
Florida
Air Florida was an American low-cost carrier
that operated from 1971 to 1984. Flat base bag and "Please take me
with you, I'm so useful." in pleat.
Thanks to

Arkia
Arkia was founded in 1949 as Israel Inland Airlines when it
became clear that there was demand for a local airline to connect Tel
Aviv with different regions of the then-new state of Israel. This bag
may be illegal, because the text "Please do not remove from aircraft"
on bag. Thanks to Richard Rosichan.
