These days, the Golden Age of travel feels
practically paleolithic: meals on china,
roomy seats not packed 10 across and
steamer-trunk-sized baggage allowances
that seem the stu• of legend. Today's
passengers experience prison-like fare
in mosh-pit conditions and, to emerge
unscathed from the mess at the airport,
are advised to travel light. But not all
carry-on allowances are created equal:
some airlines allow generous propor-
tions while others limit to micro-sized
specs. Herewith, three carry-ons to kick-
start your weekend or set a clear agenda
on the next business trip.
Weekend Warrior
Skip the scrum at the overhead bin and
go for a classic travel tote from luggage
behemoth Samsonite that ‚ts snugly
under your seat instead. Basic black
works magic in any wardrobe but dou-
bly so with your on-the-go ensemble.
The timeless shape of the Samsonite
Ltd. goes well with a casual shawl and
jeans or an elegant and re‚ned dress
and heels. Either way, this medium-size
soft tote with front-zippered quick-stash
pocket and removable shoulder strap
is versatile enough to use on the street
once you make it to your destination.
