    MUMBAI: Who says baggage has to be boring? Safari is turning the travel aisle into a runway with Shades Ahead, a vibrant new luggage collection that swaps the old blacks and greys for a riot of colour. Launching first on Flipkart during its Big Bang Diwali Sale, the range brings festive flair to every getaway.

    Crafted for the expressive millennial and Gen Z traveller, Shades Ahead reimagines luggage as lifestyle. The collection debuts two ranges, Froniq and Rovera, in six striking hues: sundune yellow, skyglass blue, coral orange, misty sage green, deeptide navy, and midnight black. Each shade tells its own story, inspired by surreal dreamscapes visualised through AI.

    “With Shades Ahead, Safari is creating a colour-first movement in luggage,” said Safari Industries (India) Ltd. managing director Sudhir Jatia. “Today’s travellers want something bold and expressive, and with Flipkart’s reach, we’re bringing that vibrancy to homes across India this festive season.”

    Flipkart Fashion vice president Kunal Gupta added, “Big Bang Diwali Sale is where India discovers what’s next. Shades Ahead perfectly captures that spirit: bold, stylish, and built to last.”

    Backed by playful digital films, social chatter, and AI-powered storytelling, the campaign turns every suitcase into a statement piece. Whether it’s for gifting, weddings, or wanderlust, Shades Ahead promises to add a pop of personality to every trip.

    This Diwali, it’s not just about where you’re headed, but how bright your bag looks getting there.

    MUMBAI: No more baggage blues Safari’s latest launch ensures your luggage never goes off-track, even if your flight does. In a first-of-its-kind travel tech collaboration, luggage major Safari has teamed up with Boat to launch Safari Trackr, a Bluetooth-enabled, smart luggage range designed to take the anxiety out of airport chaos. Debuting during Amazon Prime Day, the collection blends boAt’s tracking tech with Safari’s trusted build, offering stylish peace of mind starting at just Rs 4,499.

    Whether your suitcase has taken a detour to a different carousel or vanished into a hotel lobby’s backroom, Safari Trackr ensures you’re not left wondering where your life-in-a-bag has gone. Equipped with Boat Tag, powered by Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), the luggage range works seamlessly with both iOS and Android devices, letting users track their bags in real time no matter where they are in the world.

    The campaign’s tagline, “Your Safari Got Safer,” captures the pitch-perfect blend of reliability and innovation. Told through two witty digital films, the campaign spotlights those all-too-familiar travel fiascos swapped bags, forgotten check-ins, and suitcase slip-ups juxtaposed with the smooth, in-control experience of a tech-savvy traveller.

    The range comes in three sizes Cabin, Medium, and Large and three colours: Signature Black, Blue, and Green. Crafted from 100 per cent polycarbonate and strength-tested, the bags are built to last and be found.

    “People don’t just carry luggage, they carry their life,” said Safari Industries MD Sudhir Jatia. “Safari Trackr is our answer to the very real fear of losing that life in transit. With Boat as a tech partner, we’ve created a solution that’s smart, stylish, and simple.”

    Boat CEO Sameer Mehta added, “We’re bringing Boat Tag tech to something deeply practical keeping your belongings safe, visible, and connected. This partnership solves a real-world problem at scale.”

    The product will be available across India through Amazon, with the e-commerce giant promising fast delivery to 100 per cent serviceable pin codes. Amazon director of fashion & beauty, Siddharth Bhagat noted, “This collaboration is all about innovation and everyday utility. It’s a fresh take on what luggage can be.”

    With 330 plus service touchpoints and free installation in metros (plus virtual support for remote areas), GRIPIT’s servicing model adds another layer of ease to an already impressive offering.

    Safari Trackr doesn’t just hold your belongings, it holds your trust. In a world where travel is unpredictable, at least now your luggage won’t be.
