The Best Carry-on Luggage You Can Get on Amazon

Courtesy of Amazon

A sturdy carry-on suitcase is a staple for every traveler, especially if you usually opt out of checking in any bags. Standing at baggage claim wondering if your luggage made it is not fun, but choosing a good carry-on bag is no easy task either.

First of all, it has to be the right size and weight. The last thing you want is to be charged an overweight fee at the airport or to be told your suitcase would not fit in the overhead compartment and therefore you have to check it in. And second, your carry-on luggage needs to be spacious enough to fit at least a few days worth of clothes and have a couple of separate compartments that will keep your belongings organized. If you are a business traveler, then you'll absolutely need a padded pocket for your laptop or other electronics, too.

Next, you'll need to decide if you prefer a hard-sided suitcase or a softer structure. Both have their advantages: hard-shell cases are better if you are carrying fragile items or if you are concerned about water damage. Soft-sided suitcases and bags are more flexible and usually feature more side and front pockets.

Looks are important, too. If you are a fan of classic exteriors, opt for carry-on luggage in black or another timeless neutral and simply add a bold luggage tag to make it stand out. Or if you don’t mind a little color, go for a funky print or a bright hue such as mint green, red, or sky blue.

And finally, it’s always convenient when you can find a good selection of positively reviewed carry-on luggage at a good price all in one place. And in this case, we're talking about Amazon.

Here, we rounded up the most popular carry-on luggage options, as ranked by the online retailer.
