American Tourister Airconic Spinner 55 cm
Ultralight cabin hardshell — big value
Key characteristics
Highlights
- ✓ Just 2 kg — one of the lightest hardside cabin cases
- ✓ Textured polypropylene shell resists scuffs
- ✓ Double spinner wheels roll smooth and quiet
- ✓ Built-in TSA combination lock
Our take
The value pick of the carry-ons — genuinely light, airline-cabin sized, and from a mainstream brand you can find anywhere in NL. You give up the premium shell of the Rimowa or Lite-Box, but pay a fraction of the price.
