Have excellent Lands’ End suitcase, will travel

Before I left for BlogHer, Land’s End sent me their FlightWise 22″ Carry-on Upright rolling suitcase. It’s sized to fit in the overhead bin of a plane, and comes with a heavy plastic zippered bag with 6 refillable plastic containers that meet all the TSA guidelines.  The outside pockets include a padded laptop pocket and there are two zippered pockets inside.

Okay, so that’s the official info, now here’s my take on this bag – if you are going anywhere on an airplane, I highly, highly recommend this bag. I stuffed it full of four days’ worth of clothes, two pairs of shoes, the TSA liquids bag, another makeup and products bag, and my laptop, and it was easy to roll and maneuver and surprisingly easy to get in and out of the overhead bin on the planes.

I was surprised how easy the bag was to maneuver through the airports and also how easy it was to get it in and out of the overhead bins.  And not having to carry a heavy laptop bag for the first time since I started going to blogging events was fantastic. My shoulder really appreciated it

You can certainly buy cheaper luggage, but one thing I’ve learned in the 20 years I’ve been traveling on airplanes is that you get what you pay for. Chris took our generic brand rolling suitcase on his trip to England and Holland, and by the time he got back, one of the wheels had almost worn all the way off.   If that happens to your Lands’ End suitcase, you just return it or exchange it, no matter how many years you’ve had it!

Lands’ End didn’t have to ask me to be a “brand ambassador” or anything, I’ve been one practically my whole life. My Mom bought us school clothes from the LE catalog, I bought my first diaper bag from there too.   With regular sales their prices are comparable to department stores with one major difference – the Lands’ End Guarantee. If you aren’t satisfied with your Lands’ End purchase, you can return the item at any time, for any reason, no questions asked (just save your receipts!). No other store gives you that.

So. Heading to a blog conference? Traveling on airplanes over the holidays?  Get this suitcase from Lands’ End, or browse the Luggage section of their site for other pieces that I’m sure are equally sturdy.  And thank you Lands’ End for hooking me up for BlogHer! The FlightWise Upright ROCKS!
