There’s a correct answer to this: Briggs and Riley baseline. Fits in more OH bins than the international versions (tumi or BR) expands thoroughly. Enough space for 3 climates of clothes if you pick efficiently, and a kickass suit compartment to boot!

Kirkland Signature. On a side note- Don't ask consultants; their #1 concern is looking good. Ask the flight crew; their #1 concern is getting you there safely, plus they fly way more than any of us.

Away sucks. Super gimicky. Go with the classics.

Tumi, Travelpro, Briggs and Riley, Samsonite.

Tumi international expandable. Like someone above stated. Quality. I’ve had mine for about a decade. Two wheels

I quite enjoy my Away carry-on, but also just retired a beloved Samsonite.

like

Love my AWAY. It’s super light and fits a ton, plus they have a free 100 day trial period, so if you don’t like it you can return it no questions asked

like

B&R baseline as BCG2 said. I have the two wheel version as it has a bit more room than the spinner. Just coming back from a week in Europe and India and it easily handled everything I needed to pack, plus a largish gift from a client that I was not expecting. It’s in the overhead bin now

like

Rimowa for sure. Best of the best

like

Rimowa was the right answer, but you gotta get the original aluminum Topas. Buy it in Europe to save 40%

I am a UX designer and have spoken with a potential client who intially wanted to redesign the navigation and landing page of their site.

I see a lot of growth potential here, but they don't see the value in good nav if users don't already use it. How do I show them the value of good nav? Should I just let it go?
