Plus, the power is yours with external USB A & C ports with fast-charge capabilities and a dedicated external-access battery pocket (patent pending) that provides FAA-compliant storage for your power bank. Designed to comply with published carry-on size restrictions for nearly all major domestic airlines, this compact hard sided luggage with spinner wheels also offers a zippered 2” expansion option that gives you increased packing capacity when needed. This hard case suitcase allows you to access your laptop and other essentials quickly and easily with the unique patent pending exterior pocket design, including one pocket that provides padded protection for most laptops up to 15.6”. The ultra-strong 100% polycarbonate shell flexes upon impact to prevent cracking and keep contents protected, while an attractive textured finish helps reduce the visibility of scuffs or scratching on this hardside carry on luggage. Genuine leather trim adds a sophisticated touch, and distinctive aluminum corner armor protects high-impact areas in style. A built-in lock allows TSA authorities to unlock and lock safely and securely when needed. Pack this hard suitcase with ease with two zippered divider panels that keep contents separated and stored securely in place. Multiple accessory pockets provide built-in organization for this hardshell luggage carry on, and a water-resistant pocket provides a convenient place to stow away damp items or toiletries. Hit the ground running with precise control and effortless roll, thanks to the Travelpro® exclusive PrecisionGlide™ System–eight MagnaTrac® self-aligning spinner wheels led by a sturdy, four-stop adjustable PowerScope Lite handle with comfortable Contour Grip. This carry on suitcase 22x14x9 airline approved is backed by our Built For a Lifetime Limited Warranty with the Trusted Companion Promise that even covers damage caused by airlines or other common carriers for the first five years of the lifetime warranty.

Review: Parts missing - I thought I'd treat myself to some quality luggage. The day I need to travel the handle falls off. I unpacked everything, unzipped the fabric liner only to discover there was never screws in the first place, not even a loose one inside the liner. The toll free number won't answer instructing you to their website. You then fill out an online form in which the parts list link doesn't work then erases your form you just filled out. 1-3 business days for a response with my next trip coming up. To be fair, I really do like the luggage, it seems well thought out and the wheels do roll very well as according to the reviews but They're website states "Our priority is to have achieved the highest standard in terms of customer service. We want your experience with us to be like the first trip you take, exceptional, welcoming, and relaxing as we aim to put you first and strive to provide the best customer service possible." So can't I speak to a real person that will solve my quality control issue right away? A FOLLOW UP: It's been several weeks since my review. Travel Pro finally contacted me even though it was longer than they stated and I still would have preferred to talk to a real person. They REPLACED the suitcase so I must praise them here to say how pleased I am now that I have a working suitcase. I really do like the quality and would buy again knowing that they worked with me to my satisfaction. Thank you
Review: Really nice suitcase - If you're looking for a suitcase to sneak things through TSA, look no further. This is one of those instances where you really do get what you pay for, so don't be cheap and pony up for the traveling hitman in your life. They'll appreciate the USB charging port and stylish design that's perfect for Europe.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this suitcase support usb-c power banks?  all the photos show an internal usb-a connector.  if it's only usb-c on the outside, what's the point?**
A: Since the internal pocket only has a type-a connector, the external output connectors (type-a & tupe-c) are limited to the type-a specifications; IOW, the type-c connector is typically only going to deliver 5Vdc, because that's what most powerbanks supply.  If your powerbank is QC-capable, and the plug in to the type-a QC port, the external port (A or C) should be QC-capable.  It's just a pass-through connection.

**Q: Travelpro platinum elite expandable hardside spinner luggage, carry-on with laptop pocket 21-inch available in navy blue?**
A: Yes

**Q: What type of Power bank do I get?**
A: I bought the following power bank, which is a little bulkier than most, but it fits in the pocket.

INIU Portable Charger, 22.5W 20000mAh USB C in & Out Power Bank Fast Charging, PD 3.0+QC 4.0 LED Display Phone Battery Pack

**Q: There appewr to be two large front pokets what is the capacity of them, Can i fit my pillows there?**
A: The main exterior front pocket is designed to only fit something as slim as a laptop and the other exterior accessory pocket is large enough for small things you want to place in there while going through security like watches, wallet, etc.

### ⭐ Difficult front zipper
*by 5***L on July 29, 2025*

I have a Travel pro checked bag that I love love love. I just took it for a month to europe. The rollability was super helpful for a solo female traveler. It helped me successfully navigate cobblestones in Berlin and sidewalk drains in london and uneven sidewalks in Spain. I decided to splurge and buy a carry-on from them even though I had one, because I wanted something that rolled as nicely. (I found myself wrestling with my carry on while my big travelpro bag rolled along delightfully.) However I am returning it. When I unzipped it a rivet fell out and I haven't been able to figure out where it came from. The design, between the pronounced handle channels and the big laptop pocket, feels to me like it greatly reduces my available interior space. Also, the zipper that has to wrap around the curved front opening for the laptop is very difficult to pull. It's like the zipper teeth.Do not line up and one row of teeth tucks behind the other. It does roll delightfully however the super Difficult front zipper made it a deal breaker. Returning. Update: extra hassle - I had to be responsible to package the return after they sent me a defective item!!! Normally you just go to UPS and they do it. So I taped it back up in the crushed soft p.o.s. box it came in.
