Manufacturer's figure, wheels not stated
How we know this

The manufacturer publishes one figure without saying whether it includes wheels and handle. It is probably the packing body, which runs small — so this bag is shown rather than recommended.

Every airline we track

On the cheapest economy fare each airline publishes. A different fare often changes the answer, which is what the trip checker is for.

What we don't tell you

We check whether a bag fits. We don't review — and those are genuinely different jobs.

Whether a bag survives five years, whether the wheels cope with cobblestones, whether the warranty gets honoured, whether the handle rattles — none of that shows up in a dimension. We have nothing useful to say about any of it.

Rated elsewhere

Both of those are true. They are answering whether this is a good bag. We are answering whether it gets on the plane. Be wary of anyone claiming to settle both at once.

Bags that get past more airlines

Only bags carrying the manufacturer's own overall figure appear here — we will not put a bag forward as an answer on someone else's tape measure.

Flying somewhere specific? Check this bag against your actual airlines and the fare you booked — the answer changes a lot by fare.
