I’ve spent the past six years of trial and error trying to find the best carry-on luggage money can buy and believe me when I say I’ve had a lot of errors in the trials. The past few years I’ve fallen in love with the safety net a hard case carry-on provides, but now there are so many more considerations to make: like a carry-on that can charge your phone while you wait to board or how many secret pockets inside that will hold your dirty laundry for more than is normally deemed acceptable. So here they are – the best carry-on cases in the luggage game right now!
The Best Carry-On Luggage
We’ll begin with the most innovative carry-on in the game right now: Away’s Carry-On which features a phone battery charger, unbreakable shell (tried and tested), lock combination and hidden laundry bag. For $225 I’d argue this product can’t be beat.
My current carry-on is as pretty as it is reliable, the iconic Bric’s Milano Carry-On Spinner. I’ll be the first to admit I chose this case based on its’ vintage appeal over practicality, but I have been pleasantly surprised as to how well this little case holds up. The quality is as high as the price tag, but its a once-in-a-lifetime investment in terms of longevity (and suffice it to say, I travel a lot!)
Another hot favourite on the market right now and following the hard case trend (believe me, you will thank me later for ditching the soft cases!) is this baby pink Herschel Supply Co Carry-On. Smaller in size and great for the light traveller, the case also comes in black if you don’t *do* pink!
