Not only that, you can check your luggage at any Post Office! Note that this is done, not with some advanced pie-in-the-sky technology, but by careful coordination between companies for the benefit of the consumer. The "companies", of course, share a name. Swiss Air, Swiss Rail, and Swiss Post. What a coincidence! Now explain again to me the benefits of the US transportation system.
