(More customer reviews)I used this carry-on for a 5-leg journey from Honolulu to Kansas and back, as well as a round-trip conference from Honolulu to Phoenix.
DURABILITY AND FEATURES:
The suitcase still looks brand new. The wheels turn so easily, even though this isn't one of the spinner suitcases. All the zippers and straps are strong and durable. I love that the handle has a two-length option. The handles around the suitcase make it very easy to take in and out of overhead bins. Overall, I give the durability and usability of the suitcase 5/5.
PLANE USE:
Although the suitcase is within the requirements for the overall cubic space, it is one inch longer in width than most airlines will allow you to have. This presented a challenge for me in some of the crammed overhead bins. On some of the flights I was able to snag an empty bin and play around with the suitcase configuration. On one Hawaiian Airlines flight, I had to put the suitcase in and then jam it up sideways behind the bin door. (When I entered this flight, one of the attendants told me I'd probably have to check the bag, but I had friends to help me cram it in.) On the next flight, I had plenty of room and no trouble closing the bin at all. It really depends on the type of bins the plane uses. The more modern planes that don't have the bottom latch closure are less of a problem. I give the plane use 3/5.
OVERALL:
I really do love this carry-on. However, I wish it was just a teeny, tiny bit smaller. I'm always afraid they will measure the width and insist I check the bag or that the overhead space will not permit me to place the suitcase in the bin. I definitely will keep this bag and use it on airlines where I have Premier/upgraded status. However, I will be looking into getting a slightly smaller bag for other trips where the availability of overhead space might be an issue.
