There are many things to consider when deciding what is the best luggage to choose for your travel. Maybe the question should rather be...
What Sort Of Traveler Are You?
Are you a frequent traveler? Do you go on backpacking holidays or are you travelling with the extended family? Do you prefer long weekends away? Do you travel a lot on business?
Your travel needs should decide what the best luggage is for you... not the other way around.
Different Holidays Require Different Type Of Luggage
For family vacations, you might want to own a luggage set that offers you different packing options, i.e. to fit the different travel needs of your family. You should look out for expandable luggage as it gives you extra flexibility, and you will definitely want wheeled luggage set.
The luggage set does not have to be pricey but your set will have to be sturdy enough to survive many happy family vacations, so you might want to opt for brands with good quality record and luggage ratings.
Carry on luggage might be sufficient for romantic weekends away. It is though wise to consider if any shopping is likely to happen... as shopping does put many women in the right mood. The best carry on luggage is expandable - look for them just in case.
If you are frequent traveler looking for the best luggage then you should look for luggage with maximum durability and good luggage ratings. These models will usually cost more but the added quality makes them more durable.
This is important, because luggage does take lot of beating and you will not be saving any money on the long run by buying cheap non-durable luggage for your frequent travels. You should also look for lightweight luggage and of course wheeled luggage.
The adventure traveler is likely to be looking strong and lightweight luggage - something that can be knocked about on buses and trains. Most young travelers prefer backpacks for adventure travelling but we travelled around the world on buses, trains, airplanes, cars, and boats for a year with two wheeled luggage pieces, tote, and specialized camera bag... no problem. The key is that you should look for quality built luggage.
If you are a business traveler then the best luggage would be of maximum durability as you are likely to travel frequently. You should also make sure the luggage is lightweight as well. Look for travel luggage that is well organized and easy to access - with specific gadget compartments and pockets.
When choosing the best carry on luggage, make sure they come with straps that enable you to strap your laptop bag on to it. This is very handy when you are walking with your luggage. Some of the business travelers carry on bags offer garment compartment with a coat hanger, nice little benefit that helps keeping your business suits less wrinkled.
