There are quite a few businesses offering a luggage delivery service. They supposedly pick up your bags a few days before you travel and take them to your destination, ready for you when you arrive.

The idea appeals to me and I was wondering if anyone has used such a service. I've found a few online and the cost varies quite a bit, but it looks like I can get a standard suitcase to the US for about £100.

It would obviously be a disaster if the bags disappeared or arrived late, but I would be interested if anyone has had experience of it and can give a recommendation for a particular company. Also, for villa owners, would it be a problem to request a bag to be delivered before arrival to the management company offices and they could leave it in the villa for our arrival?
