Yes too heavy. Pass
What is normal weight for a carry on case?
less than 2KG is good.. have seen antler at 1.9kg
Yeah too heavy,
Carryon allowable weight 7kg (that's more than half)
There are carryon around 1.4kg - 1.7kg (with 10yrs to 15yrs warranty, what with the 12month warranty on these? I thought American Tourister have 10yrs.)Whats a good brand with that weight which doesn't cost rocket fuel ?
I guess the ones around 1.4kg - 1.7kg will cost at least $200 even on sale, the Samsonite Cosmolite case weights at 2.22kg, I bought an American Tourister MV+ carry-on case for $65 in the Samsonite wearhouse sale, it weights at 2.6kg
just did a search, but could not find a decent carry-on of around 1.4kg - 1.7kg, in the following article, the lightest one weights at 2.2kg

@huu: I saw the IT Luggage (2 pieces) at Costco for $79, they are very light, just seem not durable.
I also got a 2 piece from luggage direct. I m happy with it, very well made. already done a few trips with them and lend it to relatives to usa and asia, nothing have fallen off yet.
@PVA $99 is normal price else where, strandbags instore sale they can come down to $59-89
Got an Antler one that's 2.4kg for $137 in Myer recently. This seems a common weight/price for Samsonite and Monsac too. Seems to be two sizes for carry on - 105 and 115 cm (that's some kinda cubed measurement). Diffent airlines require/allow different sizes so go for a 105cm if you want to be sure to get on with hassle.
2 vs 4 wheels - 4 wheels you can stand it upright and wheel it (in queues/aisles), but the wheels feela bit fragile on rough surfaces when trailing it behind you. 2 wheels isn't so manouverable, but tracks well when trailed and handles rough surfaces better.
I found a small pocket near the top handy for boarding passes, sunnies, phone etc good. Also a bigger pocket for iPad on the outside. Don't be too fussed about how durable it is as it'll be with you the whole time, unlike checked it luggage. I did find not many have a high enough skid on the leading side to take the brunt of escalators and stairs.
Good deal for a branded bag.
Doesn't have the usual 5 year warranty it seems.
Warranty will not cover airline damage.
Weight is a neg.
