Whats the ideal size for a spinner (luggage not hoarse).


Oct 10, 2023, 7:26 AM

Amazon has some good deals. Thinking about a 2-piece set, but APM has never been a big carry on guy. Big main bag checked and my work backpack. But I could be convinced otherwise.

Even with the disclaimer, it was just sitting up


Oct 10, 2023, 7:46 AM

On that tee, asking for a swing. As for the luggage, ideal size depends on your use. Light packer, heavy packer, length of trip, etc. I have one that is carry on size and one that is just a tad too big for carry on. Both hard shell and expandable. Carry on can handle most long weekend type trips and I could pack for two weeks in the bigger one.

I would advise not getting a large one. Just very impractical and overkill for 99% of trips.

I am shopping for a carry-on backpack. Read that the size

2

Oct 10, 2023, 8:45 AM

should be 22 x 14 x 10 for carryon. "personal item" to go under seat 18 x 14 x 8. Thinking of a under-seat personal item to go with a carry-on to go in overhead.

People that know more than me, chime in. I seldom fly but going to NYC late Nov.

I actually have one of those.

Oct 10, 2023, 9:48 AM [ in reply to looking at this for the under-seat personal item ]

I have a more expensive carryon too but the back pack is nice, holds a lot... and I go anywhere in the world with that and a carry on size suitcase. Sick of getting luggage lost.

Hubby of is a frequent traveler and like dawg, after going through a Samsonite every year or so I bought him a TUmi set for Christmas.

The Samsonite two piece sets are a good deal, I bought them on prime day for my kids to go to Europe last summer.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

thanks. I've never had a personal item size.


Oct 10, 2023, 9:59 AM

might check out the samsonite 2 pc set you mentioned. Had a TravelPro roller for years when I travelled more, grandson has it now.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Honestly, a personal item bag and a carry on hard case


Oct 10, 2023, 10:24 AM

spinner can get me anywhere I need to go and I've got to be more of an overpacker than just about anyone.

My family did 16 days in europe with a personal item and carry on for all. We did check on medium sized bag of "nice to haves" since the bulk of the time was a Med cruise but if I were doing it again I would 100 percent only bring personal item and a carry on.

Oct 10, 2023, 9:20 AM

due to longevity concerns. all cracked, broke, etc. eventually

now I have luggage w/ lifetime guarantee, and prefer soft sided due to expandability and front pockets for accessibility.

to be fair, I was traveling 50+ trips / year in those days. it's tapered off quite a bit, but after having a ####### wheel go out in MSP and having to truck it all the way across that sombich, I said I'll never again get #### luggage.

The Patagonia MLC is a great bag but isn't really what you

Oct 10, 2023, 9:51 AM

are asking for. MLC means Maximum Legal Carryon or something like that, I can pack it for a week or and carry it on. It has a shoulder strap or backpack straps but 100% does not spin. It's a tank.

This is the new version, mine is a few years older.

My go-to for laxdad tourney travel, and in 20+ trips, the baggage gorillas haven’t been able to put a scratch on it. Impressive gear. Wait till Black Friday and you can usually find an outdoor retailer selling one of the $175 bags for about a hundo.

not as shiny, probably just as bombproof though.

I have 3 of them including the MLC and we take them everywhere. The backpack straps, while weird, help for carrying sometimes.
