Nudists urge airline baggage fee payback

Jason Salzenstein READ TIME: 1 MIN.

The American Association for Nude Recreation is urging travelers to protest higher baggage fees by traveling lighter -- a lot lighter.

Try a nudist resort, where luggage concerns are minimal.

"All you'll need for the week (sunscreen, cap, sunglasses, shoes and toiletries) can fit in a small carry-on," said Erich Schuttauf, executive director of the organization in a news release.

He added, "If more air travelers take a stand and a 'Nakation' in 2010, it could send a message to the airlines using baggage fees as a way to get more money from their passengers."

Said the Orlandosentinel.com/tourismcentral: "Kudos to Orlando marketing firm Ypartnership, which represents the American Association forNude Recreation, for a creative take on the news of the day."
