Top International Carry-Ons and Spinners | 2018

For flights originating outside the U.S. with a destination outside the U.S. the standard carry-on baggage size is smaller than domestic U.S. carry-on size. In general, the 22-inch size for U.S. domestic travel is too large for international trips and the rule of thumb is roughly 21 inches. As with domestic U.S. airlines, specific rules vary by airline, so it’s important to check with the airline carrier(s) you’ll be using. For travelers regularly traveling outside the U.S. you should consider moving to a smaller, internationally-compliant carry-on which can add great flexibility without sacrificing significant space. Below are our top-rated international carry-on bags and spinners.
