"Traveler's deputy global editorial director Jesse Ashlock vouches for the hugely popular Away bags: 'There really is a reason these suitcases have become so ubiquitous in overhead compartments and on baggage carousels: They’re just solid workhorse polycarbonate bags that suit a lot of different trip styles.' Ashlock switches between using his as a carry-on and a checked piece depending on the trip, and after two and a half years, is still pleased with its durability, amount of flex, and thoughtful internal details, as well as the feeling that it is intuitive to pack."
