The answer to this question will depend on the length of your trip and the items that are absolutely necessary. Below are some general recommendations for types of luggage that will provide the size needed.

Trip Length: 1-2 Days

Smaller luggage bag options will be perfect for a short trip. Travel bags, travel totes, duffels, rolling bags, underseat carry-ons, and garment bags are ideal.

Trip Length: 3-7 Days

Travel luggage bag options will be required for longer trips. Large duffels, carry-on luggage, medium size check in luggage, and larger options like rolling luggage will provide the packing space needed.

Trip Length: 7+ Days

Large luggage bags, travel luggage, large check in luggage, check-in luggage, rolling luggage, check-in garment bags and oversized travel bags like rolling duffels are necessary when packing for lengthy trips.

To measure your luggage bag or suitcase, first stand it upright (with wheels on the bottom for rolling luggage) and the extension handle on top. Begin measuring your travel luggage from the bottom of the wheels or travel bag all the way to the tallest part (without the handle extended). This is the height of your luggage and is the measurement that is most important for carry-on luggage.

Next, lay your travel luggage on its side and measure the width from side to side at the widest part. This is most likely the middle of the back of a soft-sided suitcase. Generally speaking, hard shell luggage is symmetrical and you won’t have to worry about the width varying from top to bottom.

Finally, it’s time to measure your travel bag, suitcase, or luggage depth. To get an accurate measurement of the depth of your luggage, lay it flat on its back. Then, measure from the front to the back without expanding the bag to ensure the correct measurement.

Depending on the style of your travel luggage and amount of items packed, this measurement can vary widely. Soft-side luggage that is stuffed full will have a much different depth measurement than when in its unpacked form. Similar to the height, the depth measurement is critical for carry-on luggage because the travel bag must fit into the aircraft’s overhead compartments.

The standard carry-on luggage size for most domestic airlines is 22” x 14” x 9” but it is always best to check individual airline restrictions as sizes may vary. Some airline companies may list measurements like the example above, while others choose to add all three dimension measurements to get a single linear limit. For example, 22” + 14” + 9” would be 45 total linear inches.

If you are flying, make sure to check your airline’s published size limits for checked luggage and carry-on luggage bags. Again, size limits can vary from carrier to carrier so, versatile options like convertible carry-on luggage can be helpful, and make sure to double-check before departing. The route of your flight, the kind of ticket you purchased (first / business class vs economy / coach) and even some airline’s frequent flier incentives can affect luggage measurement restrictions.

While carry-on luggage size restrictions may limit your travel bag selection, these limits are in place to ensure passenger safety. They also maximize the efficiency of the space in the limited overhead storage so that more passengers are able to bring carry-on luggage and a personal item as they board.
