The handle isnt as sturdy as an adult suitcase, but we thought it was sufficient for regular use.

Whether a ride-on suitcase qualifies as a carry-on depends on your specific airline’s size and weight restrictions.

Some ride-on suitcases may be too large or heavy (especially when packed) to pass muster.

Of course, always verify these details before flying to avoid surprises or potential extra fees.
