This hardshell luggage is designed to endure heavy-duty travel. It's made from a scratch-resistant polypropylene shell and includes a built-in TSA combination lock for easy and keyless security, according to the brand. The interior is also very spacious and has organizational add-ons like elastic straps, a divider, and a pouch to help you arrange your clothing. The suitcase's lightweight build makes it easy to pull around (it weighs less than ten pounds), while the multidirectional, 360-degree spinner wheels let you turn it in any direction, according to the brand. Plus, it has a ten-year warranty.
'I don't have this specific Samsonite suitcase, but I can say without a doubt that Samsonite makes excellent suitcases and that they don't get the recognition they deserve,' says NBC Select commerce editor Lindsay Schneider. 'I've had my Samsonite luggage for more than ten years and it's still in solid condition. The bags are incredibly lightweight in my experience, which makes them so easy to roll around and lift into overhead luggage compartments. I think they're so worth it.'

The ultimate subscription swaps to save you £100s on TV, mobile and more – & some switches are completely FREE
BRITS spend a staggering £696 per year on subscriptions - and prices keep going up. But with a few simple swaps, you could instantly save without missing out on your favourite shows, music and services. 6 Digital subscriptions have become commonplace for everything from Netflix and Prime to iCloud and PlayStation Plus. Just this week, Spotify announced that it's hiking fees for millions globally (though Brits have been spared for now). It's become a regular theme, year after year, that many find hard to sustain. Here, we reveal some of the easy ways to reduce your subscription bills. Amazon Prime Maximum saving: £36 per year 6 There are various ways you can cut the cost of Amazon Prime - and it really depends on how you use it. If you don't really get that many deliveries and just use Prime Video, there's a little-known discount available to everyone. An Amazon Prime Video only option costs £5.99 a month, versus the full-fat Amazon Prime that's £8.99 a month. Switch and save £3 a month - or £36 per year. If you want to keep Amazon Prime deliveries and everything else, there is a way to get that a bit cheaper too. O2 customers can add Prime to their overall bill for a £2 airtime discount. Don't forget, if you're a student, you can get Prime even cheaper with a huge six-month free trial. Cloud storage Maximum saving: £15.99 per year It's important to keep your precious photos safe by backing them up to a cloud service. iCloud is most popular for iPhone, starting at 99p a month for 50GB (£11.88 for a year), while Google Drive is £1.59 for 100GB (there's a cheaper annual version for £15.99). However, few realise there are free options right under their nose. There are several ways you can go about this. If you're an Amazon Prime subscriber, you get free unlimited photo storage with Amazon Photos. Those who don't subscribe to Amazon Prime can access plenty of free options not tied to an existing subscription. For starters, everyone (iPhone or Android) get 15GB free with a Google account on Google Drive. You can spread your backups across several apps too, including: Box - 10GB free OneDrive - 5GB free Dropbox - 2GB free Amazon Photos - 5GB free (without a subscription) If you want to stick with iCloud, there is another way to cut the cost. Club together with family and get an Apple One subscription instead. The family plan costs £24.95 a month for six people (including yourself) which works out £4.16 each. You don't just get storage, you all get Apple Music, Apple TV+ and Apple Arcade, so you could save further if you're subscribed to these or similar too. Spotify Maximum saving: £12 per year Most people will know that the best way to reduce Spotify Premium costs is by joining with other household members. A family subscription with six members onboard costs £19.99, while an individual plan costs £11.99. Whether you're part of a family or individual plan, you can take the cost down by £2 or £1 a mont,h respectively. It turns out you're paying extra for the privilege of audiobooks. If this doesn't interest you, you can downgrade to Family Basic or Individual Basic - everything will be the same, you just won't be able to listen to audiobooks. Disney+ 6 Disney+ is a favourite in many households, what with all the classic movies and new series like Only Murders In The Building and The Bear among others. A standard subscription comes in at £89.90 for the year. But you could trim almost £40 off and gain other benefits such as free and cheaper takeaway deliveries. Uber is giving away free Disney+ for up to a year when you subscribe to an annual Uber One pass. Uber One gives you discounts on rides as well, so you can really stretch those savings wider. Netflix Maximum saving: £84 per year If you can't live without Netflix but hate paying £18.99 a month you might consider downgrading. The Standard with adverts option is £5.99 instead, saving a whooping £13 a month (or £84 for the year). As the name suggests, this means you will get advert breaks though - and the video quality is lower too. But for those that don't mind this is an easy saving. Give these simple switches a go and you could save well over £100. You can knock some money off your mobile bill too using Airtime. It's free and works as an automatic extra cashback in the background. Once you've accumulated a certain amount it can be used to pay for your mobile charges - I've had about two months free as a result of it. You don't need to do anything with each purchase. Just add your card onto the Airtime app and every time an eligible retailer is detected you'll bank cashback onto your account. It works for a number of big brands including Morrisons, Ebay, Asos, Ikea and more. And it doesn't affect any other cashback or discounts you use either. Image credit: Getty

The little-known reason you should never put your mobile phone in the airport trays
A TIKTOK user says that she was warned by a security worker to never put her mobile phone in an airport tray. On her social media account, she revealed the little-known fact that all holidaymakers need to know when they jet off abroad. 2 The influencer - known as @ - revealed that a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) worker in America warned her against leaving her phone in the airport trays. In a video posted to her account, she said: 'The thing I'm absolutely never doing when I go through TSA, I am not putting my phone directly into one of the containers or bins. 'It's always going inside a zipped pocket in my bag.' She added: 'Why? I did this once, the TSA agent looked at me and said, 'You don't like your phone?' 'I looked at him like he was a little crazy and I said, 'Yes', and he said, 'This is the fastest way to get it stolen.' 'The number one thing that they see stolen on a regular basis is phones, and that's because they are left out and available, and the lines can back up, and somebody could just swipe it and you're not paying attention until you realise it's too late. 'So always make sure that your valuables are zipped up into your bag when they go through the scanner.' Every year, thousands of items are lost in airports, with the American TSA service estimating that 90,000-100,000 items disappeared in airports across the States last year. The news comes after the UK airport most likely to lose your luggage was revealed. Travel company Bounce examined passenger complaints, cancellation rates, and customer satisfaction from 2022 to 2024. Travelers urged to avoid popular flying habit at all costs if sitting in certain row of plane – it could prove fatal The company's research found that Southampton Airport had the highest number of baggage complaints, with 0.18 per 100,000 passengers. The airport also had the highest overall complaint rate at 4.42%, ranked the second worst for flight cancellations at 3.63% and received a low overall rating of three out of ten. A spokesperson from Southampton Airport said: "Responsibility for baggage handling lies with the individual airlines and their appointed ground handling partners." 2

Revealed: The common item that should never be left in the security trays - and the disturbing reason why
Airport security can often feel like a chaotic rush, with liquids, electronics and other belongings needing to be quickly organised and pushed through the scanners. However, there's one item that travellers are being urged to be particularly careful with. A TikTok user, @ revealed she avoids putting her mobile phone loose in the tray after an airport security worker gave her a stark warning. 'The thing I'm absolutely never doing when I go through TSA, I am not putting my phone directly into one of the containers or bins,' she explained in the video. 'It's always going inside a zipped pocket in my bag.' She continued: 'Why? I did this once, the TSA agent looked at me and said, "You don't like your phone?" 'I looked at him like he was a little crazy and I said, "Yes", and he said, "This is the fastest way to get it stolen." 'The number one thing that they see stolen on a regular basis is phones, and that's because they are left out and available, and the lines can back up, and somebody could just swipe it and you're not paying attention until you realise it's too late. 'So always make sure that your valuables are zipped up into your bag when they go through the scanner.' Following the video, some viewers questioned the advice, arguing security workers often request that all electronics are taken out of bags. One person commented: 'Except when the airport requires all electronics and phones to be out in a bin.' Another added: 'Yes, but the problem is when they say take all of your electronics out of your bag they mean, take all of your electronics out of your bag. 'They even list, laptops, iPads, iPhones, any cellular phone. 'They list all of that has to come out of your bag and be in the bin, so you really can't get around it.' However, others agreed with the advice. One person commented: 'All the "ALL electronics in the bin" people, the official TSA regulation is all laptop computers. 'So always make sure that your valuables are zipped up into your bag when they go through the scanner,' she added 'I've been getting "laptops out, leave the rest" shouted over my head at tourists/travelers for YEARS coming and going from various cities. 'Until they literally pull your bag off the line for it, you zip that stuff up.' Thousands of items a year are lost in airports.
