Especially when flying, a low empty weight makes a difference: the less the case itself weighs, the more you can bring without nearing the limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEasier to transport\u003c\/strong\u003e - convenient when lifting, packing and changing trains or planes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore usable baggage allowance\u003c\/strong\u003e - useful with airlines that have strict weight limits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComfortable when traveling\u003c\/strong\u003e - ideal for weekend trips, vacations and business travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable in various sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e - from lightweight hand luggage to larger trolleys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat should you watch for when choosing?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lightweight suitcase is not only about minimizing kilos. The right choice depends on how you travel, how much you take, and which size is practical for you. Focus on the combination of weight, size and usability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and type of trip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you travel briefly, a lightweight hand luggage suitcase is often enough. For longer trips a larger suitcase makes more sense, but low own weight remains important so you can make the most of the available allowance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eManeuverability on the go\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA light model works best when it also rolls well. Pay attention to a sturdy trolley construction and smoothly rolling wheels.
