Luggage Online

What to know about shopping at Luggage Online

Luggage Online is a multi-brand travel retailer rather than a house label, and the brand list is the reason to shop it: Samsonite, Travelpro, Briggs & Riley, TUMI, Delsey Paris and Pacsafe all sit alongside each other, which makes it a genuine comparison shop rather than a single-maker store. The range covers carry-on, medium check-in and large check-in cases in both hardside and softside builds, plus backpacks, duffel and garment bags, business cases and travel accessories.

The brands split cleanly by intent. Travelpro and Briggs & Riley are the crew-and-frequent-flyer end, where warranty terms and repairability are the real product; Samsonite and Delsey cover mainstream durability at more moderate prices; Pacsafe is the anti-theft specialist for city travel. The site also groups by trip type — family, adventure and business — which is a faster route in than browsing by size.

On cost, the standing lever is shipping: free shipping and free returns within the US at the time of writing, which matters more in luggage than in most categories because a returned suitcase is expensive to send back. Beyond that, discounting concentrates in seasonal events and in discontinued-color clearance — the same case in last season’s finish is frequently the best value on the site.

Two buying tips. Check the airline carry-on dimensions you actually fly before buying, since “carry-on” is not a standard size and the difference between 21 and 22 inches decides whether a case gets gate-checked. And weigh the warranty properly on the premium end — Briggs & Riley’s coverage is the reason its cases cost what they do, and it is worth more than a discount on a cheaper case if you travel often.
