They Can’t Destroy My TravelPro Expandable Roll Aboard

Over my many years of business travel I have gone through a lot of luggage because of “the airline baggage handlers renewal program”. I have had all the big names and a lot of “cheap” brands I had never heard of. You definitely get what you pay for. Never has it been more true than now.

With the addition of fees for checked baggage, carry-on bags are being over stuffed. Over head bins are filling faster. It seems that the over-stuffing and checking of bags is taking its toll on more and more pieces of luggage.

When ever I have to buy an new bag I tend to stick with Travel Pro, Samsonite and an in-house brand from Ebags.

In my weekly travels the is what I use for my main suitcase(click the link above for information on current sales pricing). I can carry it on if I am flying a large airline jet of I have to check it if on a commuter jet. I have had it for about 3 years and around 150 round trips.

All of the zippers still zip and the ballistic cloth has not been ripped. It has been scratched and snagged, but not compromised. I have seen it dropped from the baggage hold door to the tarmac
twice. The handles are still solid. The wheels and feet are worn but the bearings are still quiet and they roll easy. I have an light olive color and have only seen another one in that color about a dozen times since I have owned it. The handles and hardware have smooth edges so airline tags do not usually get ripped off in handling. It had a semi hidden pocket for a name and ID tag.

I am a king-sized flyer and this bag handles 4-5 days of clothing quite well with out over-stuffing.

This is one tough stylish bag that should serve you well.
