This Flight Attendant-approved Carry-on Set Can Hold 3 Weeks' Worth of Clothes—and It's on Sale for Under $50
As a frequent flier, my biggest fear is my luggage getting lost. While I could just slip luggage trackers into my bags, I'd still have to pay a checked bag fee and wait for my suitcases after we land. To avoid the hassle, I've learned how to pack everything into a carry-on and personal item, so I can travel light and keep my belongings with me at all times.
Right now, Amazon's travel gear store has a flight attendant-approved carry-on luggage set that's on sale for less than $50. It's ideal for carry-on-only travelers looking to upgrade their gear. The budget-friendly two-piece luggage set has earned the praise of flight attendants and avid travelers, with nearly 20,000 five-star ratings from Amazon shoppers.
Shoppers love this luggage set for its 'very spacious' interior and wheels that 'glide smoothly.' It includes a softside carry-on and matching tote bag that's small enough to fit under your seat, according to one traveler.
Its expandable feature will be a hit with overpackers and carry-on only travelers going on long trips. It really offers extra room, one flight attendant confirmed saying, 'The expandable feature on the suitcase is superb and I still have so much room in it even when I overpack.'
Another shopper called the set 'a great value for the money,' and made the carry-on set their 'go-to' luggage after they were able to fit three weeks' worth of belongings inside. They also confirmed that it glides through airports and other spaces easily, and that it's lightweight.
Both pieces of luggage can stand the test of time, too. One reviewer has been using their set for almost 10 years for several trips. Other fans of the luggage also praise its durability, with one traveler describing it as lightweight, easy to pull, and 'show[s] no wear' after much travel, even down cobblestone streets.
The tote bag has an attached piggyback strap that can slide over the carry-on's handle, so you have a free hand while navigating the airport. Both bags come with various pockets that'll let you separate your in-flight snacks from your charging cords, toiletries, and clothes.
The luggage set comes in several colors, including vibrant shades like teal and bright orange, which will make it easy to spot at baggage claim.
Amazon also has other budget-friendly travel gear hiding in its travel gear hub. Check out more suitcases under $50 at the online retailer, below

Experienced climber dies after 3,000-foot plummet from North America's highest peak
A Seattle man died after falling 3,000 feet from a climbing route at Denali National Park in Alaska, the National Park Service said Wednesday. Alex Chiu, 41, was ascending the West Buttress route of Mount McKinley on Monday, June 2, one of the park's most frequently climbed routes, while not attached to a rope, the agency said in a statement. He was ski mountaineering, which involves ascending and descending the route with skis. He was joined by two others in his expedition to conquer North America's highest peak. Two others witnessed his fall onto the rocky face covered in jagged ice, and lowered themselves over the edge as far as they could, but they could not see or hear him after the fall, officials said. The mountaineers descended the route to ask for assistance at Camp 1, which is located around 7,800 feet up the mountain. Due to high winds and snow, ground and air search teams were unable to quickly reach the area where he had fallen on Monday. On Wednesday, clear weather allowed two rangers to depart Talkeetna, a village south of the mountain, in a helicopter search for Chiu. When his body was found, it was transferred to the state medical examiner, the agency said. Fox News Digital has reached out to the Alaska State Medical Examiner's Office for Chiu's official cause of death. Chiu was an aerospace engineer at the Federal Aviation Administration and, before that, a software engineer at Boeing, according to his LinkedIn profile. On his social media accounts, he described himself as a storyteller, traveler, scuba diver, rock climber, alpinist and marathon runner. He wrote on his Instagram account about how living in Seattle allowed him to take his ice-climbing tools to the mountains every weekend. He shared that following the daily grind of his 9-to-5, he would pack up his gear and head to the mountains. "I had become so good at what I did that I started teaching others how to do it, and that was even more fun to teach others how to experience the joy you have in these wild places," he wrote in an Instagram post. "When I am in the mountains, I realize I was at my best. I was smart, witty, passionate, and bold." The pandemic put the brakes on his alpine climbs, but he dreamed of heading back to the climb. "So tomorrow I am getting on an airplane to Alaska," he wrote in an Instagram post on May 19, "in an attempt to climb the third-highest peak in the world because I don't want to know what happens to a dream deferred." The busiest season on the mountain lasts from mid-May to mid-June; there were about 500 climbers on it Wednesday, the agency said. Chiu is one of several people who have died while climbing Mount McKinley or other areas of Denali National Park. In April 2024, 52-year-old Robbi Mecus, of Keene Valley, New York, fell to his death while climbing an estimated 1,000 feet off Mount Johnson in the national park. The NPS said that a similar accident happened in 2010, in a similar location. That incident involved an unroped French mountaineer, who fell to his death on the Peters Glacier. His body was never recovered.

Breeze Airways IPO in 2026? 'There Could Be Window for That,' CEO Says
Breeze reported its first profitable quarter this year, and CEO David Neeleman said the company is 'building cash.' An IPO for Breeze Airways could be on the horizon for 2026, according to CEO David Neeleman. 'I think if by next year, if there's a rebound in equities, there could be a window for that,' the serial airline entrepreneur said in an interview with Skift. Breeze's business model relies on connecting travelers in areas with little to no commercial air service to popular leisure destinations. The low-cost carrier, which launched in 2021, reported its first profitable quarter in January. Revenues for the airline were up 78% during the fourth quarter compared to the same time in 2023. Neeleman said an IPO would depend on market conditions. Airline stocks plummeted this past year after President Donald Trump announced a sweeping set of tariffs that would be imposed on most imports to the U.S. While the stock market overall has rallied back, airlines stocks have lagged. 'A lot of that depends on the market conditions,' Neeleman said. 'Airline stocks are pretty cheap right now because of the uncertainty. We're a discretionary spend. So whenever you go to potential threats of slow down and consumer confidence is down, then airlines are the leading indicators for that.' Neeleman added that Breeze does not need to raise capital. 'A couple of reasons you need to go public is you need capital,' Neeleman said. 'We don't need that. We're in good shape from a cash position. And then in the last two quarters, we've increased cash. We're kind of building cash.' But if Breeze were to go public in the near future, Neeleman said it would be mostly for giving shareholders liquidity. A Positive Summer for Breeze For the summer, Neeleman said Breeze is seeing strong demand, even for domestic travel, which multiple airlines have reported is softening. Some airlines have also reported a delay in summer bookings. Southwest CEO Bob Jordan said at an investor conference in May that customers are 'waiting to make decisions, including for the summer.' 'It's strong for us,' Neeleman said. 'I think our team has done a really good job of picking routes. We move around seasonally a little bit. So we do more North-South in the wintertime. And then we do East-West in the summer with more concentration in the mid-Atlantic section.' He added that a lack of competition on most of Breeze's routes has also helped with summer demand. 'I think the most dire predictions for the summer have been maybe overstated because our bookings are good,' Neeleman said. 'We feel really good about how the summer's materialized.' What am I looking at? The performance of airline sector stocks within the ST200. The index includes companies publicly traded across global markets including network carriers, low-cost carriers, and other related companies. The Skift Travel 200 (ST200) combines the financial performance of nearly 200 travel companies worth more than a trillion dollars into a single number. See more airlines sector financial performance.
