luggage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'holidaymakers might carry this' is the definition.
(people on holiday might carry luggage)

'toboggan in silence? on the contrary' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'silence?' could be 'gag' (gagging is a kind of silencing) and 'gag' is present in the answer.
'toboggan' could be 'luge' (synonyms) and 'luge' is present in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for luggage that I've seen before include "case?" , "Traps" , "Travel bags" , "Cases, bags, etc" , "Suitcases and travelling bags" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
