Well, I'm going on a 3 week journey out of the country, so I'm PROBABLY not going to be able to pack everything in a carry-on. I had bought a 27" Victorinox a few years ago for a europe trip, and I liked the space. But now, they are restricting luggage internationally on Northwest (and other carriers too!) to 50lbs. Same with the 62"...so basically I can't expand my bag?
So that bag seems to be a wash now. I would rather carry one bag versus 2 smaller check-ins where they would be lost. Now before everyone says that I should carry less or whatever, I am a medium-packer when it comes to packing...i try to travel light. But with a few pairs of shoes, swim trunks, jeans, etc, its not hard before the weight gets up to 50lbs. I took the bag, packed it lightly on a trip I had to go internationally not too long ago, I had to take some of the books that I was brinign to read and pack them in my carry on.
I really wish I had just bought the 24" version of the bag now.
