The carry-on suitcase has become a traveler's best friend: lightweight, practical, and always within reach. But between airline restrictions, preferred materials, and the perfect organization for packing your belongings, how do you make the right choice?
At GYL, we give you the essential criteria for choosing the right cabin suitcase : a sturdy, functional and trendy suitcase... for traveling light, without compromising on quality!
3 reasons to choose a cabin suitcase!
To avoid checked baggage fees : low-cost airlines often charge a lot for them!
To save time : no more endless waiting at the baggage carousels, you can leave the airport without any worries, in the blink of an eye.
To travel with peace of mind : you keep your most valuable belongings with you (computer, medication, jewelry, etc.).
Did you know?
By 2024, more than 50% of travelers in Europe will prefer "cabin only" for trips of less than 5 days.
The 4 essential criteria for choosing the right cabin suitcase
Size and weight: comply with airline standards
Maximum dimensions: generally 55 x 35 x 25 cm (varies depending on the company).
The ideal weight? Less than 3 kg empty to maximize your payload.
Robustness: for trouble-free travel
A rigid shell: choose polycarbonate (unbreakable and lightweight).
Secure closures: YKK zipper or TSA locking system (mandatory for the USA).
High-performance wheels : the keys to mobility
8 swivel wheels ideally: to maneuver your luggage easily, without any effort. Silent and durable wheels: avoid plastic wheels that are too noisy...they click on all terrains.
The intelligent organization
Modular compartments: computer pockets, removable dividers, smart storage. Elastic bands too: to save space and keep your clothes from wrinkling.
The pitfalls to avoid!
1. Forget the actual dimensions: Always check the dimensions with the handle and wheels included.
2. Choosing style over weight: a suitcase that's too heavy means fewer things you'll be carrying!
3. Forget the warranty: even a cabin suitcase must be covered against shocks (GYL offers a lifetime warranty).
In short, your cabin suitcase is much more than luggage...it's an invitation to travel.
Yes, choosing your cabin suitcase means adopting a travel companion that must combine freedom, strength and style.
