The maximum weight you'll be allowed for your carry on luggage will be 40lbs (18kg). For that reason, you'll want to get luggage that is as light as possible - remembering that soft sided luggage is considerably lighter than hard sided.

Luggage with wheels has become wildly popular since it's so easy to pull along in an airport or hotel lobby. Remember, though, they take up a minimum of 2 inches of space (smaller wheels are virtually useless), and 4-5 pounds. Depending on the situation, a comfortable shoulder strap might be a move viable option.

Cheap quality luggage is a waste of money. You need your material, stitching, pockets and wheels to withstand both weather and rough handling (of both you and transportation personnel).

Luggage should be considered an investment. The most long-lasting and practical will mean that you'll get a lifetime of safe, secure, simple traveling.
