Thanks BA1, trying to keep the price a bit lower

I have the TravelPro Maxlite 4 and got my SO the Away bigger carry on. The handle on the TravelPro is much sturdier and the wheels are really nimble so I can get through the airport really fast. The Away definitely looks nicer and fits her style. It also fits a bit more than the TravelPro. You can always travel without the battery or get a bag without it

I have the away carry on. Great for the regular 4 day trip and customer service is incredible. I highly recommend it!

Recently switched from TravelPro to Away Carry On and loving it! TravelPro served me well for years, just got a bit too beat up. Echo the earlier comment about Away’s customer service, they were great about helping me switch out models when they released the new option without the battery

I have the bigger carry on from away and haven't had any issues in the overhead bins. Also, if you have to remove the battery it literally takes 2 seconds so it's not a big hassle. I like my away bag

Plus with a travelpro people will ask you if you’re actually crew so you get respect :)

Does the “bigger” carryon fit well on flights or would you recommend the smaller option?

P2, can you tell me more about switching out models? I've got the Bigger Carry-On now with the battery but would much rather have it without the battery - they only had the version with the battery when I purchased it

SC1 why the preference to have the version without the battery?

I have an external battery that I carry in my backpack. Oftentimes the times when I need a charge and a plug isn't near are those times when I don't have my luggage handy (eg, on a flight).
In the 6 months I've had that carry on I haven't used that battery once

I thought the battery was removable, no?

It is, but I've already got a better battery. The shell that holds the battery is just taking up space in my suitcase - even when the battery is removed it still takes up that space
Not too big a deal - annoying but still happy with the suitcase

I don't have a driving licence or a car, cause I have a health condition growing up and driving is not ideal for me.

I live in a city where the subway is accessible to clients, so it hasn't been an issue so far and sometimes I can Uber. And of course due to COVID, it's all remote now. I understand directors/partners usually travel much more and would worry!

Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
