Reviews

FA Approved

"I should have purchased this bag years ago. I am a commuting flight attendant and this bag fits perfectly into regional aircraft overheads as well as mainline aircraft. I was concerned that it might be too heavy for me but the weight is evenly distributed. The comparison feature is a game changer. Considering purchasing one for personal use."

— Adrienne S. (5/5)

Best I’ve ever owned

"As a firm believer of two wheeled luggage over spinner style, this one is the best I’ve ever purchased. Expandability is excellent and it glides perfectly over Europe’s cobblestone streets and uneven surfaces. Having the bag behind me also keeps fellow travelers out of my personal space when in cue for an airplane. I will never purchase another brand again (as long as they keep making two wheeled luggage) and with a lifetime warranty, why would you look elsewhere?"

— Christopher D. (5/5)

"Well-constructed, beautiful luggage."

— Glenn (5/5)

Great Carry-On

"I've used a B&R carry-on like the Global 53cm 2-Wheel for several years and love it. It was highly recommended by the lady store owner I bought mine from who said her airline employee customers love them. They're exceptionally well-designed, sturdy, and very attractive. Now I've bought a new Global 53cm 2-wheeler for my wife and she' s thrilled with it."

— Randal C. (5/5)

Heavy, but build quality is unsurpassed

"Premium materials and construction, by far the most well-built suitcase I've owned. Appreciate the outside handle allowing for an easy square space to pack in. Only downside is it is quite heavy for a carry-on, even when lightly loaded."

— Antonio S. (5/5)

Because my Global 22 inch

"Because my Global 22 inch carryon has proven unfailingly reliable for at least a decade of weekly use plus trans continental flights and AmTrack, each of my mission serving grandsons and now my granddaughter receive one along with the medium Baseline expandable. Department store brands do not survive a mission. The medium expandables meet foreign flight size requirements. I recently enjoyed a two week visit with family in Nevada and in Florida. I paired my 22 inch carryon with the large expandable brief case to carry clothing, shoes, cosmetics"

— Deborah K. (5/5)

Absolutely a step above average

"Absolutely a step above average luggage. The quality of product and workmanship is readily apparent. As with most things, you get what you pay for."

— Douglas B. (5/5)

B and R 21" carry-on

"Expander side hard to pull up. Needed to use the case so did not return."

— Carol C. (5/5)

Not a carry-on for most US airlines

"I don’t understand why this is marketed as a carry-on when it’s too wide for most US airlines. United, American, Delta, Alaska all require carry-ons to be 14” wide but this is 15” so it doesn’t fit in the overhead bins. I travel weekly for work and don’t check my bag so this was a complete a waste of money."

— Peter (1/5)

Lightweight

"Lightweight compared to the travel pro. Fits all I need for 3-6 days."

— Alexia W. (5/5)

Q&A

What Material is this made from? I'm looking at the Strong Bags and LuggageWorks alternatives as I'm a pilot so this bag will see a lot of use and they both state they're made from ballistic nylon. Is this true with the baseline also?: Good Morning Gaz, Thank you for contacting Briggs & Riley. This bag is made of 1680D ballistic nylon.
Do you offer retired military discount?: Good Afternoon Dan, Thank you for contacting Briggs & Riley. I do apologize but we do not offer a military discount, however some of our items are sold at your local PX store.
What is your lightest weight 21" suitcase?: Good Morning Martha, Thank you for contacting Briggs & Riley. The lightest 21" bag that we have would be our ZDX collection carry on.
Can the bag be left in the expanded state if full packed and wanting to use it as checked luggage?: Good Morning Warrigal, Thank you for contacting Briggs & Riley. The bag is not made to be used in the expanded state. There is no lock on the compassion plates that will hold the bag in the expanded plate in place. If something heavy is placed on the bag the bag will compress.
The dimensional diagram in the photos indicated the width at 14". However the Specs section lists it at 15". Please confirm correct dimension, as I am evaluating this product for use on US Domestic flights were the width limit is often 14".: Good Morning, Thank you for contacting Briggs & Riley. I show from the middle for the piping the bag is 15" wide.
