¡Claro que si amigo! It seems to be newly fashionable amongst the general hoi polloi, whereas once it was limited only to flight crews and soya milk saleswomen. There’s nothing worse than disembarking from my private jet only to find my way blocked by a plethora of sweaty cretins pulling their damned suitcases on wheels. Not only do they take up twice the usual space in both forward and sideways directions, they also stop at the top of escalators to engage the handle, ensuring everyone behind them crashes into them or falls over try to avoid them. I have been informed by some of my ‘couriers’ that the trend is widespread and even extends to the underground railway systems of major cities. There is no word to describe their selfishness and for one I will have nothing to do with them, except for the SamsonLite X4 model which is resistant to the X-ray machine (apparently).
