For a normal person, a duffel bag or weekender would do the trick for this quick jaunt.
), and, well, you could see where this is going.
Suffice it to say, this carry-on is just what I needed for a short stint in paradise.
This allowed me to lay the suitcase out flat and pack both sides evenly.
When it was time to hit the airport, I couldnt wait to show this baby off.
The Seattle Carry-on looked and performed unlike any other suitcase Ive ever owned.
The 360-degree wheels rolled like a dream through the airport, allowing me to shuffle through crowds flawlessly.
With the Seattle Carry-on, I get the best of both worlds.
The bag currently retails for $595, which is on the steep end for asmall carry-on.
For longer trips, I recommend going for the23.5-inch versioninstead.
I can say with certainty Ill never count out softside luggage again.
Aside from Dagne Dovers Seattle Carry-on, she also swears by herDakota backpackand brings it on almost every trip.
