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

We publish both numbers. The case dimensions (the packing body only) are 26 x 18.5 x 11 in. The overall dimensions, which include wheels and carry handles, are 28 x 19 x 11 in. When airlines publish size limits they mean the overall size, so compare the overall number to your airline's limit.

How many linear inches is this bag, and will I owe oversize fees?

Linear inches are height + width + depth. This bag measures 55.5 linear inches by case dimensions and 58 including wheels and handles. The standard checked-bag limit on most airlines is 62 linear inches (158 cm). This bag sits within that limit. More detail in our luggage size and weight guide.

How much can I pack before hitting airline weight limits?

Most U.S. airlines cap checked bags at 50 lbs. This bag weighs 7.1 lbs empty, which leaves about 42.9 lbs of packing before standard overweight fees. A luggage scale is a good companion for long trips.

Does the expansion matter on a checked bag?

Expansion adds packing depth, which also adds to the bag's linear inches and invites heavier packing. If you are near your airline's size or weight limit, measure and weigh the bag expanded, the way it will actually fly.

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

I've enjoyed this medium size

"I've enjoyed this medium size Travelpro suitcase for about 4 years. My husband decided that this size was something he wanted for our next trip. It works great for longer excursions while leaving plenty of room for any extras you might purchase while exploring the world! It's very light and I highly recommend it."

Corinna W. (5/5)

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE BRING MORE

"PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE BRING MORE 2 WHEEL LUGGAGE BACK! I am taking a month long trip and feel this bag is certainly big enough, and light enough and was the only 2 wheel option you have. However, I'm already guessing the top handle will be torn off by the airline. Travelpro and SwissGear used to have a study frame, and the handles were mounted with more than about a 3 inch section f the handles grommeted to the frame. I've already had 2 handles torn off with the last two pieces of luggage after only 2 trips. As a precaution, I took this to a shop and they added an extra grommet to keep the handle on securely. I'll keep you posted after trip. But when you are pulling luggage over cobbled streets, the 2 wheel is the best option as they are more recessed."

Linda H. (3/5)

So glad we switched back

"So glad we switched back to a soft sided bag and chose this one. It’s exactly what i wanted: big roller wheels, none of this spinner stuff, soft thick walls. It’s just simple, and we stuffed it so full it was just about 50lbs. Perfect for a checked bag on a 10 day trip with my husband and toddler!"

Amelia T. (5/5)

I was able to use

"I was able to use just the one bag for all clothes accessories, & toiletries for a 5 day trip"

Steven M. (5/5)

After one flight the frame

"After one flight the frame is already dented and the greenish/beige color is clearly going to get very scuffed up."

Benjamin F. (2/5)

Cannot believe how lightweight this

"Cannot believe how lightweight this suitcase is. Planning on using it the end of the month for a Paris/Marrakech trip. With 2 wheels instead of 4 it will easily roll over cobblestones, uneven pavement and up and down stairs."

Nancy M. (5/5)

Lovely

"I have the little brother of this one (21 inch) but I now needed something larger. I truly dislike bags with four wheels and this one is perfect."
