man walking with suitcase and backpack

A few years ago I was running through the airport when I realized my suitcase's zipper had split open but I had no time to replace my luggage. I knew I had to find a fix – fast. After a mad search, I managed to find a solution that worked for the entire trip. If you’ve ever been in this situation, you know how annoying a broken zipper can be. Luckily, there are a few easy ways to fix a zipper and get your suitcase back in action without replacing the whole bag. Here’s how to repair a luggage zipper.
First, figure out the problem with the zipper

Before attempting a repair, it’s important to determine what’s wrong with the zipper. Common issues include a stuck zipper, a zipper that won’t stay closed, or a broken or missing pull tab. Once you determine the problem, you can apply the right fix.
How to fix a stuck zipper
A stuck zipper is one of the most common problems. The culprit is often fabric, thread, or debris caught in the zipper’s path. If this happens, check for obstructions and use tweezers to gently pull them free. Even small bits of dust or lint can cause a jam.
