Luggage Size Guide

Which size fits your trip — and your airline's rules.

Luggage sizing is measured on the longest side, wheels included. Most airlines allow a 21–22" carry-on in the cabin; anything larger gets checked. Here's how our range maps to real trips.

Size comparison

Carry-on rules vary by airline — budget carriers are strictest. All our carry-ons meet the requirements of most major North American airlines; check your airline's limits before flying budget or international.

Quick picks

Weekend escape

A 19" carry-on or the Weekender bag. Add a packing cube set and you'll never check a bag.

One to two weeks

A 24" checked case plus a carry-on. Compression cubes buy you souvenir space on the way home.

Family trip

A luggage set covers every combination — nest the smaller cases inside the largest to store them.

Business travel

A slim carry-on with a front laptop compartment gets you from security to the gate without unpacking.
