Made for the overhead bin, the Maxlite® 5 International Carry-On Spinner keeps the load at 5.3 lbs and pairs it with smooth-rolling spinner wheels and zippered expansion for the trip home, so more of the effort goes into the trip and less into the carrying.

Best for: Weekly road warriors who live out of the bin, and weekenders who pack like it's a week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the listed dimensions include wheels and handles?

We publish both numbers. The case dimensions (the packing body only) are 19 x 15 x 7.75 in. The overall dimensions, which include wheels and carry handles, are 21.75 x 15.75 x 7.75 in. When airlines publish size limits they mean the overall size, so compare the overall number to your airline's limit.

Will this carry-on fit my airline's size limits?

Yes, for the major U.S. airlines: this bag is sizer-bin tested and fits the carry-on sizers and overhead bins on mainline aircraft of the major U.S. carriers. Its overall dimensions sit within the commonly published limits of the major U.S. carriers.

AirlinePublished carry-on limit
American Airlines22 x 14 x 9 in.
Delta Air Lines22 x 14 x 9 in.
United Airlines22 x 14 x 9 in.
Southwest Airlines24 x 16 x 10 in.

Regional jets have smaller bins, so expect to gate-check on those flights regardless of brand. See our carry-on size guide by airline for the full list, and remember every bag is covered by our 100-day trial.

Does expanding the bag change whether it fits airline sizers?

Yes. The zippered expansion adds extra packing depth, and a fully expanded bag may not fit a strict airline sizer. If your airline enforces its sizer, board with the bag unexpanded and save the expansion for the trip home or checked segments.

Is it water resistant?

Yes. The exterior fabric has a DuraGuard® coating that resists water and stains, so it holds up to rainy sidewalks and daily wear.

How do I make a warranty claim or get repairs?

Submit a repair request through our warranty repair page for an online evaluation, with photos of the issue and your proof of purchase (or product registration). If the issue is covered, Travelpro provides replacement parts or, when a bag cannot be repaired under an active warranty, a replacement bag. Prefer in-person help? Find the nearest authorized repair center. Full coverage details are on the warranty information page.

How do I clean and care for it?

Use a 50/50 mixture of alcohol and water, apply with a soft cloth, and gently rub the affected area until the spot lifts. Let the bag air dry completely before storing. A little lemon juice in the mixture freshens the fabric. More care tips are in our customer FAQ.

What warranty does this come with?

This product is covered by the Maxlite® 5 Warranty, plus our 100-day satisfaction trial with free returns. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Reviews

Love our Maxlite Travelpro International

"Love our Maxlite Travelpro International Carry-Ons!! We replaced our older roller bag with these two bags. They are so smooth & easy to maneuver. Love the multi-level handle adjustment for just the right height. I was surprised how much i could fit wirh it being a smaller size. Love all my Travelpro bags!"

Rhonda D. (5/5)

In general, it’ss very well

"In general, it’ss very well made and practical carry-on. It swallows a surprising amount of items, which makes it very practical for my needs. There are a couple of issues, though, one minor and the other more important: — Minor issue: the zipper pull tabs don’t flip around easily when you try to open or close the bag. I have to jiggle them so that they fall into place. — Major issue: like many people, I carry a small technology backpack as my personal item. When I place this item on top of the bag, it causes the bag to tip over unless I’m constantly holding onto it. Part of the problem is that the top of the bag doesn’t provide a consistently flat surface, sloping away from the handle and pulling the bag down with it. It makes me wish I had purchased the regular carry-on instead, even with my flying local carriers around Asia with their more restrictive baggage size allowances. I wish that TravelPro could sonríe address this issue, as it seriously impacts my routine use of the bag."

Marika D. (3/5)

The light weight alone makes

"The light weight alone makes this a find. The bag is light enough that I can now finally lift my loaded luggage. It rolls easily and smoothly. I have no trouble fitting in 2 weeks worth of clothing. It goes in the overhead bin on European flights. I am loving my new bag."

Terri M. (5/5)

What an incredible travel combo

"What an incredible travel combo with the tote! Unbelievably lightweight and the wheels on the carry-on glide like a dream. The handle feels solid when extended and the soft, curved grip feels incredible. Bonus that the carry-on works with every major international airline. I’ve ditched my other carry-ons and will never go back."

Dawn W. (5/5)

The bag construction is excellent,

"The bag construction is excellent, the components work well and it is a very light piece. The one drawback noted is that when fully loaded, the bag will fall over when standing on the four spinners. We bought two of this model and this occurred with both pieces. The spontaneous crashes happened repeatedly for us in many awkward situations, such as on crowded trains, buses and in the middle of busy train and airport terminals. A re-design of the bag's center of gravity and further testing should be undertaken. We nicknamed the bag the "roley-poley"."

GREGORY F. (2/5)

My husband and I fly

"My husband and I fly international and this year my husband said your luggage carries more than mine order me one. I've read that it was originally designed by airline crews. It's light weight and durable."

Patricia S. (5/5)

Perfect lightweight carry on for

"Perfect lightweight carry on for my trip to North Carolina! Rolls nicely and fits more than I thought. ."

Gayle T. (5/5)

We are very happy we

"We are very happy we made the switch from two wheels to four. Wish you would not have gotten rid of the second outside pocket in the bigger crew size."

Brenda M. (5/5)

Awful bag, when packed does

"Awful bag, when packed does not stay upright on spinners but always falls forward from the handle to the bag."

Mark W. (5/5)

I love this carry on!!

"I love this carry on!! It fits everything I need while staying extremely light and very compact. I can’t wait to get the companion piece!!"
