Know before you buy
Yes, this suitcase is sizer-bin tested for most major domestic airlines. Its dimensions are 9.5 x 23 x 14.5 inches, though you should always check your specific airline's carry-on policy before flying.
No, the suitcase includes the external USB A and C ports and the internal battery pocket, but you must provide your own power bank to connect to the internal cable.
The suitcase features a 2-inch expansion zipper that allows you to increase your packing capacity when needed. Keep in mind that expanding the bag may affect whether it fits in certain airline sizer bins.
The PrecisionGlide System uses eight MagnaTrac self-aligning wheels designed for smooth, stable rolling. While they perform best on smooth airport floors, the magnetic alignment helps keep the wheels tracking straight on various surfaces.
Yes, the built-in TSA-approved lock is straightforward to program. You simply set your own three-digit combination, which allows security personnel to access your bag without damaging the lock if an inspection is required.
The aluminum corner guards provide extra reinforcement to the areas of the suitcase most prone to impact. This helps protect the polycarbonate shell from cracking or denting during rough handling.
