Cargo Net

A stretchy net-like device with four hooks attached. A cargo net is used to secure odd-sized or large items to the passenger seat or luggage rack. Be sure the item that is being secured cannot fit through the holes of the cargo net, and be sure the cargo net is not too large for the item. If the cargo net is too large, the item will shift during transit.
