In some countries, like Japan and Taiwan, they have big lockers for storing luggage at the airport or MRT (metro) stations. Is this meant for the same purpose?

- riffraff 7y agotrain stations offer the same service in europe, in my experience. (it's not the same and not very reliable, but random places like museums and restaurants will keep your luggage if you just ask them nicely too :)
- mikelward 7y agoWe used a locker at Antwerp main station. It was defective. Spent most of our visit there trying to get our bags back. Something with a human attendant right there could be an advantage.
- cody3222 7y ago:( that sounds miserable. I hope Bounce is in Belgium for your next visit. Manned by staff, and also 24/7 support if you need help with anything.
- davedx 7y agoYeah London and Amsterdam stations have this too. The problem is only the bigger main stations have them. In Amsterdam this is actually a PITA as Centraal is right at the northern edge of the main city, so it's not actually as "central" as the name makes out... :D
- cody3222 7y agoYes! I went to Japan after starting Bounce and was really inspired. Everywhere you go, you know you can find a locker nearby. It's ubiquitous, reliable, inexpensive...can truly change how you get around a city.
