The Guatemalan carrier is one of the few to feature a cartoon. Looks
like you can make this bag happy by feeding it.
Here's the lowdown from Bruce
Kelly about this bag: "The story I heard regarding this bag is
that it was designed by a bag collector named Jaromal Kral from the Czech
Republic and used on his correspondence. An Italian company ripped off the
design without giving Jaromal credit and used it as a generic bag. I have
met Jaromal and he confirms this story. It's popped up on several
airlines-mainly Italian but I had heard it was found on an Aviateca flight
also (Aviateca once had a proper bag with name & logo a few years ago,
but now as a member of Grupo Taca) uses a generic white-ugh!). I think the
bag in question must be classified as a generic, but it sure is a cool
design."
