The Perfect Travel Companion-Better Than Expected

I bought this Flex carry-on for my L.A. trip after getting tired of my old bag, and I'm so glad I did! It's an absolute game-changer. I was able to fit all my items with plenty of space left over—even more than I expected. I didn't even need to use the expansion feature. The rollability is amazing; the wheels glide so smoothly. My friend had his carry-on with him, and after seeing mine, he wishes he'd gotten one too. I've also noticed so many people at the airport with Away bags, and now I completely understand the hype!

Great feature

So far so good! I’m on a flight from Phoenix to Munich and checked my bag. Hopefully it arrives in Munich when I do and it’s in good condition. Love the expansion as I was able to fit all my items for 10 days.

Perfect for dual needs.

I am thrilled with Away! My bigger carry on flex is fabulous. Often I want carry on for outgoing flights but check on return flights. Now I can easily. It holds much more than I expected and is lighter also. The compression side really make a difference. Also they responded to my inquiries immediately. Wow, I could communicate with a human!!

Great carryon luggage.

First the material of the luggage, the color, and the size and where I was able to extend if necessary. I would defiantly recommend this size. I only used for a 5 day trip but it fit everything and I was able to fit anything I bought to bring home. It fit great in the overhead compartment in my plane to my destination. I didn't need to extend it, but I packed light clothes, so I will defiantly extend on my next trip if necessary. I really liked that it came with a laundry bag.

Great Luggage - The Bigger Carry-On Flex

My wife and I love our orange Bigger Carry-On Flex luggage. We are taking our 8 year old granddaughter to Europe at the end of November for 16 days to see some Christmas markets in Germany, France and Austria. We just bought her a Bigger Carry-On Flex in Lavender Haze Purple for the trip.. She loves it!!!
