    A business briefcase built as a travel briefcase

    The Travelpro® business briefcase is the Altitude™ Full Expansion Brief, a nylon travel briefcase that measures 12 x 16 x 6 in. overall and weighs 3.6 lb. It has laptop and tablet protection, zippered expansion and a rear strap (sometimes called a trolley sleeve) that fits around the extension handle of a rolling suitcase.

    What should I look for in a briefcase for travel?

    Look for three things, and check each against the Altitude™ Full Expansion Brief.

    • A way to carry it with a suitcase: The rear strap holds the brief on the handle of your carry-on, so you roll one piece through the airport instead of carrying two.
    • Protection for your computer: The brief lists laptop and tablet protection. Measure your laptop and compare it with the 12 x 16 x 6 in. overall size before you order.
    • Room that changes with the day: Zippered expansion gives the brief more depth when you carry more than usual, and it zips back down when you carry less.

    Size matters most when you fly. Briefcases for business travel usually ride as the second bag next to a carry-on, and airlines set their own personal item limits. Compare the overall dimensions of the brief with your airline's limit, and remember that an expanded bag is deeper than 6 inches.

    The brief belongs to the Altitude™ line, which also includes nylon laptop backpacks, if you would rather carry your work on both shoulders.

    Which business briefcase does Travelpro® offer?

    This collection features the Altitude™ Full Expansion Brief, which measures 12 x 16 x 6 in. overall and weighs 3.6 lb. As the name says, it expands, so you have extra room on days when you carry more than usual.

    Can a briefcase be my personal item?

    A personal item is a bag small enough to fit under the seat in front of you, such as a tote, laptop bag or backpack, and it travels in addition to your carry-on. Personal-item limits vary by airline, and a common international limit is 18 x 14 x 8 in. Compare each bag's overall dimensions with your airline's rules in our carry-on size guide by airline.

    Should I choose a briefcase or a business backpack?

    A briefcase is easy to carry into a meeting and to open at a table or at your seat. A business backpack spreads the weight across both shoulders, which helps on long walks through the airport or the city. Compare both styles in our business backpacks collection.
