  • You need this bag in your travel arsenal. Buy it.
Size: Carry-on 22-Inch Color: Black
If you like my review, please give it a thumbs-up. I only write reviews to help fellow Amazon shoppers. I am not compensated for any products, (I buy them with my own money, like many of you) and I write what I experience in order to make Amazon Reviews better for us all. This Travelpro Maxlite 5 22" is possibly the best carry-on out there for price/value. Yes this bag is slightly larger in overall dimensions (from top of bag to bottom of wheels, it's about 23" tall) that US Domestic restrictions for some airlines (United, for one) BUT this bag easily fits into overhead bins. I flew with this bag on 777's, 737-700's and A321s, all without issues. Gate agents didn't even look at this bag and I didn't stand out with it either. Other travellers who were trying to stuff rather large duffels were told at the gate they'd have to check their bags. Bag construction is of high quality nylon mesh and other high quality plastics. The wheels are perfectly round and feel durable. I pulled my bag across airports, roads, crosswalks and the uneven sidewalks in NYC. No issues and the bag remains stable and upright when being pulled. I elected to buy the two-wheeled version versus the spinner in order to gain more interior room in the bag. I was able to pack 3 suits and dress shirts (in a suit protector I also bought on Amazon) along with some golf shirts, shorts, jeans, socks and other small items. All this without making the bag bulge or look overstuffed like a Thanksgiving turkey. The bag is easy to pull down a jet's aisle(s) and with its built in padded side handle, making your way to your seat is a breeze. Being super light unpacked, this bag really makes great use of space all without making the bag heavy when packed. The zippers all have nice pulls and are easily accessible. The main compartment zippers have connecting loops so you can put a lock on your bag if you are forced to gate check. There's a front zippered pocket which serves you well for your phone and travel docs before going through TSA. This makes emptying your pants pockets easy so you can go unmolested through TSA checkpoints. While an occasional reach around from TSA could be nice, I prefer to avoid such personal interactions. The front expandable section of the bag allows for easy storage of a thin laptop or iPad and some cables. All making for easy access while on board a plane so you can get situated before flight with your devices. I can see packing for a 5 day trip in this bag and maybe adding a backpack for some extras to get to 7-8 days total. Overall, this bag is a great value, well made and I can see getting many good years out of it. And with bag fees going from $25-$30, buying and owning a bag like this is a no brainer now. If you use it 2-3 times, it will have paid for itself. You need this bag in your travel arsenal. Buy it. You can come back and thank me later. ... show more

  • best ever carry-on
Size: Carry-on 22-Inch Color: Slate Green
got this carry-on especially for recent euro trip, where nothing was checked on the airplane! loved this! lightweight. i like the double transport wheels rather than the spinning type. holds lots of stuff, nice expansion zipper and outer zip pockets. easily accommodated a 'piggyback' backpack attached to the handles. durable over all the rough sidewalks and cobblestones! showed it to our son-in-law, and he has since 'borrowed' it long term, to replace his older carry-on with rotten wheels! so, i might have to get yet another!! ... show more

  • International carry-on
Size: Carry-on 20-Inch Color: Ensign Blue
Bought this specifically for a British Airways flight since my other carry-on is slightly too large. This is lightweight and holds a great deal -- possibly could have avoided checking another bag if my trip was less than 12 days and/or didn't need an outfit for a specific occasion. I'm considering purchasing a 25-inch model to match because I like it so much! ... show more

  • Great Quality Suitcase
Size: Carry-on 22-Inch Color: Ensign Blue
This has been a great carry on suitcase. My husband and I rarely ever check a bag anymore. I did not want the spinner wheel kind because you give up space. These are nice and lightweight and easy to pull through the airport. They are beautiful and very durable.

  • Overall an OK carry on luggage
Size: Carry-on 22-Inch Color: Sapphire Blue
I haven't used this luggage, here is so far the impression. The Pros: Very light. True to size. Very well made for the price - but not the quality of a high end luggage. I like the two wheel style because it is more spacious than the four wheel spinner. The Cons: Pulling up and down the luggage handle is OK, but not super smooth. The luggage smells like other reviewers mentioned. ... show more

  • Passed Ryanair carryon sizing reqs but also survived being checked through two connecting flights
Size: Carry-on 20-Inch Color: Azure Blue
I bought two of these in a rush as we needed them for a family trip, and this model was in stock vs. the spinner. While I wish the 4-wheel 21-inch model would have been available in time (that one is listed as: Case Dimensions: 21 inches x 14 inches x 9 inches; Overall Dim: 23 inches x 14.5 inches x 9 inches; Weight: 5.4 lbs, Vol: 46 liter) , this 20-inch model actually is closer to the Ryanair specs as of August 2022. (TravelPro does offer an "international" 19-inch spinner model on its own site, but that one has slightly less capacity at 39L and was not in stock within my timeframe. Specs: Overall Dimensions: H: 21.75 in. W: 15.75 in. D: 7.75 in. Case Dim: H: 19 in. W: 15 in. D: 7.75 in. Weight: 5.3 lbs. Vol: 39 L) I'm happy to report that this 20-inch two-wheel style met Ryanair's specifications with nary a second glance. Ironically I was forced to check it on a Delta/KLM codeshare, because the flight was very full. The Azure Blue looked pretty much good as new when it showed up on the carousel, despite being checked onto two connecting flights. Post-trip pic attached - any color variation in the full-length pic is due to shadows, not dirt. Azure Blue is actually a nice warm blue, first pic is just a little overexposed due to afternoon sun. See second photo for color comparison. (Actually the bag looked better than my also brand-new hardshell American Tourister (ABS) spinner which was checked on the same flights and emerged with several long scuffs. But they both did the job which was to protect my belongings and remain intact.) I appreciate that this TravelPro has some higher-end features: all the zippers, even the ones on the interior mesh divider, are two-way (i.e. not just a single one-way zipper); the telescoping handle has two height adjustments; the wheels run smoothly and in fact track so well that you can push the bag down an aisle instead of pulling it, allowing for more maneuverability; the grab handle on the bottom makes it easier to move when loading into an overhead compartment; it's stable and not tippy even when fully loaded and with extra bags resting on top. It does not have locking zippers though you can use a small padlock to secure the zips. My one caveat is that I wish the side grab handle was oriented vertically or diagonally when the bag is standing upright, instead of horizontally. That would make it easier to grab when it is lying on its side (e.g. on a carousel) or to carry when walking in close quarters, as if it were a briefcase. Last thing that I really like about this bag is that it is quite light (5.4 lbs, vs. other similar models from diff brands which can clock in at up to 8.2 lbs), which makes it far easier for me to hoist it over my head. I am >5 feet tall so when I put it into an overhead bin I need to stand on the seat or lift it in a full overhead press, so every ounce saved matters to me. Plus of course the lighter the bag, the more capacity I have for my belongings. Quite happy with this purchase! ... show more
