Travelpro Crew 11 29 Inch Expandable Spinner Suitcase (Black)

We used Travel Pro 21" suitcases a lot and wanted a larger suitcase for vehicle or check in airline travel. We recently purchased and used the Travelpro Luggage Crew 11 29" Expandable Spinner Suitcase on two trips. One trip was air travel and one was pulling a camper. This suitcase is plenty large. In fact, maybe a bit too large for some. I have seen air carriers have weight restrictions as low as 40 lbs, while others are at 50 lbs, 60 lbs or even a bit more. After those restrictions, you pay fees for excessive weight. Check with your air carrier's limits. Knowing the weight limits in advance, we really could not fill the suit case full for our flight. The suitcase is expandable by 2". I do not think we will use the extra space, but it is there if needed. We also used this case once for large vehicle travel pulling a camper. If you own a small or compact car, this might not be the best suit case for you.The case, wheels and handles are strong, not like other brands that are flimsy and weak. The wheels roll very true and effortlessly without wobble or any issues. The construction seems sturdy and long lasting. But again, only two trips used so far. The dark Blue case with tan handles looks sharp. There is a handle on top and the side of the case as well as a lip on the bottom of the case for easy handling. The collapsable pulling / rolling handle is sturdy as well.If you are familiar with quality suitcases like Travel Pro, this one will not disappoint. The size of the suit case might not be for everyone. Most will likely be better off with a 21" or 25" suit case. If you need a larger suit case, this is it.

We were looking for a suitcase which would allow us to consolidate some of the larger and more lightweight items we needed to take on our trips, as opposed to stuffing them into multiple medium-size suitcases. This one turned out to be a winner. The inside volume is amazing, a full-size suiter compartment worked out perfectly, and the suitcase itself held up extremely well through several trips, having been handled by several airlines and cruise lines. For those who are concerned about airline size limits: we checked it on JetBlue, American, Cathay and Norwegian, and none even blinked at its size. Weight limits will need to be managed closely, as it is very easy to go over 50lb when filling such a huge bag. We put on a polyester-spandex luggage cover over it, which makes it stand out at the baggage claim, while at the same time protecting the bag from rubbing against other suitcases and conveyer belts - so after all our trips, it still looks brand new. I'd have no hesitation buying another one, or recommending one to our friends and family - assuming they have similar needs for volume vs. weight.

My wife and I, travel on average 12 times a year...and I have to say that the Travelpro Crew 11- 29" Expandable Spinner Luggage is a traveler's best friend! It's light weight...weighing less than 11 pounds (but definitely feels lighter than that) and the alignment of the "MagnaTrac self-aligning wheels" automatic aligns and locks in the directing one is traveling. Best of all; it's made from "high quality ballistic nylon (bulletproof vests are made the same material)" and backed by "Traveler Lifetime Warranty!" My wife and I replaced (gave to the kids) our other travel luggage with the 20" Business-Plus Carry-on, and the 25" Expandable Spinner from the Traveler Crew 11 (14-piece) collection.

This unit appears very well made. It is big yet maneuverable. Used for international trips and works very well. Storage for everything we could think of plus some. It was very easy for my wife to handle around the airport as well.

Beautiful piece of luggage and very light weight. One of the pulls broke off the first time I used it, but it could have been the fault of the luggage handlers.

I got a same size crew 9 a few years ago. They got the best wheel, durability is good, zipper is awesome. My family and I travel a lot internationally. We travel at least twice a year to Europe and Asia. We tried different brands of luggage. At the end of the day, we are coming back for crew 12. Luggage pro crew is so far the best luggage we have ever had. It is quite expensive, but it is worth the money if you travel a lot.

I bought my first set of Travelpro luggage in 2005 (also the Crew series) and I used it frequently for work and leisure. It wasn't until only recently that I started to see significant wear and tear on the zipper pulls. Also, I now have a family of four, so we needed another large suitcase to accommodate the increase in clothes and stuff we need when we travel. This bash is AWESOME! The wheels work great. The interior tie downs slide along the length on the bay so can use them where needed, and the blue color looks fantastic. I'm looking forward to using this bag (and our old ones) for years to come.

I upgraded my luggage from the Travelpro Crew 6 to the Crew 11 line. I purchased the 21” carry on, the 25” and 29,” all with the spinner wheels. It is considerably lighter and much easier to maneuver than the Crew 6 line. I have had the Crew 6 line for over 20 years and it is still in excellent shape. The only reason I changed was because the Crew 11 is lighter and much easier to maneuver. I expect it to last me as long as the Crew 6.
