Here’s what one reviewer says about the Eagle Creek bag: “This is one of the only suitcases that meets international flight size requirements for carry on luggage. The wheels and handle work well. However, the handle takes up a large amount of space in the suitcase and the spacing of the handles makes packing anything else awkward. The zippers are also fragile and a bit hard to zip.”
Here’s what one reviewer says about this Tumi bag: “This is the perfect back pack for me. Not to big, and not to small. I used this as my carry on for a recent flight. The material is easy to clean. There are 2 zippers at the top of the main compartment that go to each side so it opens wide and it is easy to get into the bottom of bag.”
