Which American Tourister series is right for you?

American Tourister is known for colourful, lightweight suitcases that are sturdy without the price going up. These are the series our customers choose most often:

• Flytwist: our best-selling American Tourister suitcase. Lightweight hard-shell spinner with an expandable zip and smooth double wheels. Available as carry-on luggage (55 x 40 x 20), 67 Medium and the popular 78 Large, ideal if you want to travel from a weekend trip to a long holiday within one series.
• Airconic: ultra-light hard shell made from Makrolon. A favourite for anyone counting every kilo: the Airconic spinner comes in 55 carry-on, 67 Medium and 77 Large and rolls whisper-quietly on four double wheels.
• Dashpop: eye-catching design with expandability and a low weight. The Dashpop 55 x 40 x 20/23 EXP is a top choice for carry-on luggage, while the 77 Large offers extra litres for longer trips.
• Aerospin, Wanderlite & Neovibe: sturdy, expandable spinners with excellent value for money: smart choices if you're looking for an affordable yet solid suitcase.

Can't decide between two series? Pay attention to the weight, expandability, colour and the type of trip you take most often. This makes it easier to choose the best American Tourister suitcase for you.

Hard shell or soft shell: what suits your trip?

• Hard shell (such as Flytwist, Airconic and Dashpop): offers excellent protection against knocks and pressure and is easy to clean. Handy for air travel and when you're carrying fragile items. The lightweight polypropylene and Makrolon shells combine a low weight with great strength.
• Soft shell: more flexible and equipped with extra outside pockets for quick access to your travel documents. Very suitable for car and train journeys and if you like to add a few last-minute items.

If you mainly travel by plane or want maximum protection, choose a hard-shell spinner. The strength of American Tourister. Almost all models have smooth double wheels, a telescopic handle and an expandable zip for extra capacity.

The right size and airline requirements

Carry-on luggage: the most requested size is 55 x 40 x 20. View our carry-on suitcases. Keep in mind that airlines have different limits. If you want to take luggage on board free of charge with low-cost carriers such as Ryanair or Transavia, choose 40 x 30 x 20. Always check your airline's current requirements.

Checked luggage: for a midweek trip, a medium suitcase (such as the Flytwist 67 or Airconic 67) is often ideal. For 1-2 weeks or around 20 kg, choose a large suitcase of approximately 77-78 cm, such as the best-selling Flytwist 78 Large. View all our suitcases and hard-shell suitcases. Tip: if you're unsure, choose an expandable model for extra capacity without taking a second suitcase.

More than suitcases: boarding bags and backpacks

Prefer to travel light or are you going away for a weekend? American Tourister also makes handy boarding bags and backpacks. The Summerride boarding bag fits under the seat as an under-seat bag, and the Upventure laptop backpack (15.6 inch) is great for work and city trips. View our travel bags and laptop backpacks.
