What is the main idea of the news item?
As struggling airlines add extra-luggage fees and travelers worry about growing security restrictions, ser-vices like Luggage Forward and Luggage Free have emerged as ways to bypass the hassles of checking bags. While typically seen as a luxury, more Americans are using such options for run-of-the-mill trips. The idea behind the luggage delivery services is to make traveling as headache-free as possible.
Customers load up their suitcases as usual, with no special packaging needed. Shipping slips for luggage are mailed to them. A pickup time is scheduled, usually for a two-hour window. If the bags are being sent to a hotel, the concierge will typically call customers to let them know their belongings have arrived. Rates vary depending on the weight, distance and speed of the delivery. The new luggage delivery services promise to provide greater convenience by helping customers clear customs, track packages and pick up luggage at home. Still, the price can add up for a big order. But compared to the mess it would’ve caused at the airport, the price was worth it, said Kolodny, a 45-year-old resident of Great Neck, New York.
选项
A、Stricter security restrictions were imposed on luggage.
B、Luggage delivery services offer travelers convenience.
C、New services caused a lot of trouble in checking luggage.
D、Airlines give travelers opportunities to fly first class.
答案
B
解析
主旨大意题。新闻开头部分的bypass the hassles of checking bags表明,新的行李托运服务可免去乘客机场安检的诸多麻烦;后面提到的as headache-free as possible也说明新服务可减少航空旅行的烦恼,另外新闻从各方面介绍新服务为旅客带来的便利,因此B正确。
