This Rick Steves ultra-light weight 21" rolling case (7.8 pounds!) has a honeycomb frame for structural integrity, super tough UV resistant shell fabric for durability and strength, a soft touch, non-slip handle for handling ease, and exceptionally smooth rolling wheels that will provide years of reliable service. With a quick zip around of the expansion panel, it expands to gain an extra 2” of packing depth. The clean outside pocket arrangement provides simple and easy packing organization. The large inside compartment is designed around Rick’s essential travel mantra: All you “really” need will fit and then some.

Comments about Rick Steves Rick Steves 21" Rolling Aboard:

Several years ago, my husband bought one of Rick Steve's 21" suitcases for each of the four of us, in four different colors. We have used them many many times, for trips of up to four months, and the two we just got are replacements for a couple that have understandably gotten frayed over the years. They always fit in the overhead, unlike many 21" bags I have seen.

Comments about Rick Steves Rick Steves 21" Rolling Aboard:

This bag looked smaller than earlier versions of the same bag when I first opened the box. Sure enough, when I measured it, the bag was 1" less wide than the earlier version of this same bag. That may not seem like a lot but in terms of it's holding capacity it is noticeable. I suspect that these bags are made in a different overseas factory than they used to be. I prefer earlier versions.

Comments about Rick Steves Rick Steves 21" Rolling Aboard:

A nearly perfect lightweight bag, rolls easily yet doesnt't tip. The zippered handle cover is unnecessary for a bag that is seldom (if ever!) checked.

Just came home from 21 days in Europe. ALL my clothes, books, etc. were in this bag. Great capacity. (Did wash some things in hotel at night.) Used a backpack to access things immediately needed on planes. Rick Steves products are the best.

This is an excellent and well-deigned carry-on. Easy access to what you need even when on the plane. Lots of space for a small piece, usefull pckets, and water bottle holder on side is mandatory for a carry-on in today's flying world.
