Top 8 Luggage Built For International Travel 2019

International travel is tiring, long and stressful if anything goes wrong. It’s important to have kit that won’t let you down, especially the luggage.

We’ve trawled through the internet to find you the best pieces of luggage that will make your travels relaxingly easy.

#1 eBags TLS Mother Lode Weekender Convertible Carry-On Travel Backpack

As a carry-on backpack with lots of storage, the Mother Load Weekender will fit just that, a motherload. But you can still stay organized with its well thought out design. Slip your passport and boarding passes in the easily accessible front pocket while storing your water bottle in the zip-out mesh side pouch. The zippered top pocket is perfect for quickly accessing your liquids during airline security.

Inside you’ll find plenty of storage for clothes and shoes with a mesh zipper to store your delicates. Behind the main compartment is a covert zippered slit that holds a laptop without even knowing it’s there. With its streamlined design, this luggage will fit in most carry-on specifications for international travel, though if you prefer to check your bag, the straps zip into the protected back. Above all this backpack provides the comfort you need to journey around the globe.

#2 Eco-Friendly Backpack, by Fjällräven

This highly fashionable box-shaped backpack, famous for being extremely durable is now available in an eco-friendly version, made of recycled plastic bottles.

This special edition of the Kanken backpack is entirely made of recycled polyester from old plastic bottles.

#3 Fairview Trek Pack 50

Getting a gender-specific backpack isn’t necessarily necessary but some companies, like Osprey, make female-specific backpacks that are built especially for a woman’s frame. I use the Osprey Fairview Trek 50, as it’s built specifically as a travel pack (which is how I use it) but has the ability to hit the trail for a few nights, doubling as a hiking/camping backpack This makes the pack extremely versitile. My favorite features about it are the wide, sturdy waist strap to distribute weight evenly, and a huge zippered front panel that make loading/unloading the backpack a breeze.

#4 TUMI – Alpha 3 Worldwide Trip Expandable 4 Wheeled Packing Case Suitcase

When it comes to innovative features and design, TUMI can’t be beat. Offering huge compartments to pack everything you could need, as well as inner and outer zipper pockets to keep all the little things organized. The construction features FXT ballistic nylon, impact-resistant DuraFold construction, and dual-coil zipper breakaway design. Add to that TSA locks, the TUMI Tracer program, and easy-glide wheels—you have the Cadillac of luggage.

You have almost certainly seen the signature grooved shell while traveling. Available in three classy colors, this bag is the epitome of luggage engineered to offer travelers optimum capacity and long-lasting performance. You get all the good stuff like collapsible and adjustable sleeve pockets, organizable sleeves and a unique multi-wheel rotation system too.

#6 Platinum® Elite 25” Expandable Spinner

This bag nails all the fine details: high-density nylon fabric available in shadow black, Bordeaux, vintage gray, or espresso are both scuff and stain-resistant. The premium leather handles and chrome zippers feel and function perfectly. If you want an expandable bag with a lot of pockets, look no further. TravelPro also offers an included folding suit bag to keep clothes wrinkle-free, especially helpful on those long international flights.

#7 Zuca Pro Complete Set

Heads turn as the Zuca Pro is wheeled through the airport. I’ve had many people stop me throughout the years, asking if I’m carrying a speaker or makeup collection. The interior of this bag includes pouches where you can store your rolled or folded clothes. It fits much more than you would think from looking at the exterior. In addition to holding your essentials, this bag can also be used as a seat as you are waiting for a shuttle or car service.
