I completely disagree. All travel related products should be moved to or posted in the newly proposed forum, regardless of the sex of the target market.

From Travel Luggage, wallets, clothing, headphones, travel agencies and the like.

I would like to recommend that the Talkboard considering adding a Travel Products and Services Forum under the Travel & Dining area.
You know, this is actually a great compromise on the entire non Point & Mile, “Travel Related” products in SPAM.

Besides luggage discussion, these following topics about travel-related products should find a home in the newly proposed forum as well:
* Free Sample of Arm & Hammer Toothpaste in Perfect Travel Size… need I say more (unless you don't brush your teeth while you travel)???
* Free Sample of chocolate chex- great for a snack on the plane!
*Free Moisture Cream- perfect to moisturize when you get into a new rental car!
