Review: Dollar for dollar.....TravelPro is made for the long haul! - This good-looking rolling, carry-on suitcase is built to last! That's why TravelPro is a preferred choice of flight attendants and pilots. At the price of suitcases today you can't afford to repeatedly replace cheapo ones, when you'd be better off putting a few more dollars toward one that will securely and handsomely take you anywhere in the world--for a very long time. I chose the rollaboard style (2 wheels) as opposed to spinners (4 wheels) which are not as sturdy and durable especially over uneven pavement and cobblestones. And the softside fabric exterior won't show rough handling as much as shiny, hard plastic luggage. The quality and features really shine throughout: --SO lightweight it will be easy to place in overhead bins. --This particular bag has been repeatedly proven to fit within sizing limitations for all domestic and most international airlines. --More packing volume than a "spinner". --Expandable! Although utilizing that feature may negate it fitting in an overhead bin. --Comfortable handle (adjustable height) and smooth rolling wheels. --Sturdy, heavy duty smooth running zippers --Spacious, well-thought out interior and exterior compartments, and convenient exterior storage for a laptop. --Awesome warranty VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Dollar for dollar.....this one is made for the long haul....not like a flash in the pan suitcase that looks shiny and new, but will need replacing in a couple of years because it is not made of the tough stuff like TravelPro. Review: Lightweight and recommended by a flight attendant! - My brother in law who works for a major airlines suggests this bag as a carry on because it fits no matter whiat airline you fly. I watched it for months and decided to give it a try for my last trip. She is lightweight and the zipper quality is top notch. I liked the wheels on the bag because they are higher quality and they will be durable. Easy to maneuver in the airport. The color wasn’t my first choice but it was on sale and I didn’t want black since everyone has black. I wanted to stand out so I would know it was my bag. I’m glad I got it. The inside of the bag has a zipper pouch and the lining also can be opened up so you can put your shoes in there away from your clothes. The handle is strong too. ## Features - LIGHTWEIGHT: A half pound lighter than Maxlite 4, this rollaboard meets most international carry-on size limits.

Thanks!** A: Well, American Airlines states on its website that allowable carry on size is 22x14x9. This bag is 21x14x9. The Travelon site describes this case as "meets carry-on size restrictions for most domestic airlines." Based on that, I would say yes, it does. You should probably double check with the airline, if not comfortable. Hope this helps! **Q: Would a 14"x10" laptop fit on the front pocket?** A: Yes...with room to spare. I can put my machine (same size as your) plus power cable and other cables. Plus power pack for my phone. **Q: What is the volume with and without the expansion?** A: Volume with expansion is roughly 100L. We only calculate the maximum capacity with full expansion so the volume without is not readily available to me. My apologies. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dollar for dollar.....TravelPro is made for the long haul! *by K***E on January 27, 2026* This good-looking rolling, carry-on suitcase is built to last!
