Lightweight and handy: cabin suitcases from travelite
Weight plays a particularly important role when travelling by air. However, it’s equally important to ensure your luggage is the correct dimensions. For example, most airlines only allow hand luggage with maximum dimensions of 55 x 40 x 20 cm and a maximum weight of 8 kg . However, the exact regulations depend on the airline, so you should check the details carefully before your trip.
The total weight, in particular, is often a problem, as the luggage items naturally have their own weight, which can quickly push up the weight of your hand luggage. When selecting our hand luggage, we’ve made sure to find the perfect balance between a lightweight and robust and durable construction to create. That’s why our hard-shell suitcases weigh an average of 2.8 kg and our soft-sided luggage an average of 2.1 kg for size S models. In this size, our lightest soft-sided luggage model weighs Skaii just 1.9 kg and our range Air Base just 2.1 kg.
We’ve also taken the maximum dimensions into account in our timeless designs, so there won’t be any nasty surprises at the airport. The compact size makes it easier for you to carry your hand luggage, especially when you’re in a hurry.
What should you look out for when choosing a carry-on suitcase?
A suitcase should accompany us on our travels, not hold us back. Nothing is more annoying on holiday than a cabin bag Trolley that we can’t rely on. Cabin bags from travelite therefore tick all the boxes, so you don’t have to worry about your luggage.
Durable material
Our cabin luggage is made from robust materials that can withstand external influences. For hard-shell suitcases, for example, we use aluminium or sturdy plastic such as ABS. These protect against environmental factors such as rain as well as impact damage. The soft-sided suitcases are made from durable polyester , which combines durability with flexibility. To ensure we can guarantee you high-quality workmanship and long-lasting quality, we carry out regular product tests.
Secure locking system
Many of travelite ’s suitcases feature an integrated TSA lockThis secure combination lock not only protects your luggage perfectly against theft, but also makes going through customs at the airport much easier. Other ranges of suitcases also feature a secure combination lock. The concealed address panel offers ideal protection – ensuring your confidential details are shielded from prying eyes.
Agile wheels
To ensure a smooth and stress-free journey, cabin suitcases should feature not only a carrying handle but also manoeuvrable and robust wheels. Our models feature rubber-coated 360° double wheels, which not only enable sturdy transport across a wide variety of surfaces but also guarantee the ability to change direction at a moment’s notice.
Telescopic handle
A cabin bag with a sturdy, well-designed telescopic handle makes it easier to manoeuvre through busy airports, railway stations or urban environments, and can be conveniently folded away and stowed when not in use.
Clever layout
Limited space should be used as sensibly as possible, which is why an efficient layout of the interior compartments is important. To ensure your luggage stays organised, both when opening the suitcase and whilst in transit, our suitcases from travelite feature a clever division of the interior compartments. Many of our suitcases have external pockets, allowing quick access to important documents and items.
When choosing your carry-on suitcase, make sure it complies with the specified carry-on dimensions, which may vary from airline to airline. If you stick to these dimensions, you’ll have no trouble stowing your carry-on luggage under the seat or in the overhead compartment.
Hand luggage: What are the advantages of soft-shell and hard-shell suitcases?
Soft-shell luggage:
- Ideally suited as carry-on luggage and for travelling by car
- Easier to stow away thanks to the flexible material
- Adjustable capacity thanks to the stretchy material
Hard-shell suitcases:
- Usually the right choice for long journeys or frequent flyers
- Significantly more robust and extremely durable
- Even delicate and easily breakable items of luggage can be transported safely
Soft-shell suitcases are ideal as hand luggage, as they are generally lighter and can be stowed more easily in tight overhead lockers or under the seat in front of you, especially when the aeroplane is full.
However, hard-shell suitcases are also a popular choice for carry-on luggage, as they offer excellent protection for your belongings and can withstand the pressure of fully loaded overhead bins as well as the general wear and tear of travel.
Which option you ultimately choose depends on your personal preferences and your preferred way of travelling.
