British Airways teams with Trunki for limited-edition ride-on suitcase

British Airways has partnered with Trunki to launch a limited-edition ride-on suitcase.

Named Amelia the Aeroplane, inspired by Amelia Earhart, the design features a British Airways aircraft and the airline’s Peggy the Pegasus and Leon the Lion characters.

“We love seeing children travelling around the airport on or with a Trunki, so we are really pleased to be partnering with them to create an aviation-inspired case,” said Hamish McVey, British Airways’ Head of Brand and Marketing.

“We can’t wait to see our smallest travellers take to the skies with their new luggage this summer.”

Rob Law, Creator and CEO of Trunki , added: “We were thrilled to be able to partner with British Airways and create a bespoke Trunki for young flyers and British Airways enthusiasts alike. Each case is manufactured at our UK factory in Plymouth, and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership. A positive return from the pandemic!”
