Samsonite Flux - Spinner S Expandable Hand Luggage, 55 cm, 44 L, Black

Product Information

Since its creation in 1910 American label Samsonite has provided quality assured and durable luggage to last the long-haul. The packing capacity of these is expandable, with an expansion zipper that is hidden inside the luggage, and which you can’t access from the exterior. It’s not an everyday thing that someone’s going to break into your suitcase because they are trying to use you like a mule, so you shouldn’t get a ridiculously expensive aluminum suitcase just to be on the safe side. And finally, we couldn’t possibly do a suitcase round-up without including the incredible kid-friendly cases from Trunki. Its cutting edge design gives a new blast of boldness, with every detail sculptured into the perfect travel companion.

Go Places was the first specialist online luggage retailer in the UK and has been selling luggage since 1969.Two-wheel ‘puller’ cases are easier to manoeuvre in the real world of pavements and staircases where you can just tilt the bag and pull; Four-wheel ‘spinner’ cases are ideally suited to places with smooth floors, like hotel lobbies and airports where they get to glide around on all four sets of wheels – come across trickier terrain though, and you’ll have to drag them along on two wheels just like the others.

The side-mounted TSA locks offer extra security, so only you or a TSA agent can access your belongings. This is on the top of the case – a nice touch on the go, as side locks can involve moving your case off of its wheels. The multi-directional 4 wheels and push-button telescopic handle offer smooth gliding through airports and city streets, and the case is fitted with a TSA padlock to allow US airport customs to check your luggage without damaging it. We also love the fact that these cases are affordable and hard-wearing, being made from the same material as adult cases.
