Best for: Business travellers who refuse to check a bag, and anyone tired of waiting at the carousel.
We publish both numbers. The case dimensions (the packing body only) are 51.435 x 34.29 x 23.495 cm (20.25 x 13.5 x 9.25 in.). The overall dimensions, which include wheels and carry handles, are 58.42 x 36.83 x 24.13 cm (23 x 14.5 x 9.5 in.). When airlines publish size limits they mean the overall size, so compare the overall number to your airline's limit.
This bag is sizer-bin tested against the carry-on sizers and overhead bins of mainline aircraft. Like most premium carry-ons, its overall height (58.42 cm / 23 in.) is slightly above the commonly published 56 x 36 x 23 cm (22 x 14 x 9 in.) standard, and it still fits where it matters: the sizer and the bin. Canadian carriers publish their own limits, so compare the overall dimensions (58.42 x 36.83 x 24.13 cm (23 x 14.5 x 9.5 in.)) against your airline:
| Airline | Published carry-on limit |
|---|---|
| Air Canada | 55 x 40 x 23 cm (21.5 x 15.5 x 9 in.) |
| WestJet | 53 x 38 x 23 cm (21 x 15 x 9 in.) |
| Air Transat | 51 x 40 x 23 cm (20 x 15.5 x 9 in.) |
| American Airlines | 56 x 36 x 23 cm (22 x 14 x 9 in.) |
Regional jets have smaller bins, so expect to gate-check on those flights regardless of brand. And every bag is covered by our 30-day return policy.
Yes. The zippered expansion adds extra packing depth, and a fully expanded bag may not fit a strict airline sizer. If your airline enforces its sizer, board with the bag unexpanded and save the expansion for the trip home or checked segments.
Yes, the padded sleeve fits laptops up to 15.6 inches. That covers the MacBook Air 13 and 15, MacBook Pro 14, Dell XPS 13 through 15, ThinkPad X1 Carbon, and Surface Laptop models. A 16-inch class laptop such as the MacBook Pro 16 will likely be too large for the sleeve. Screen size is the guide; a slim sleeve or case on the laptop usually still fits.
Start at our Customer Service Center, where you can register your bag, file a warranty claim, and request replacement parts. If the issue is covered, Travelpro provides replacement parts or, when a bag cannot be repaired under an active warranty, a replacement bag. Full coverage details are on the warranty information page, and common fixes you can do yourself are in our luggage repair guide.
Combine mild soap and water, apply with a soft cloth, gently rub until clean, rinse well, and let the bag air dry completely before storing. Surface scuffs on hardside shells are cosmetic and do not affect performance; store the bag in its provided fabric cover when not in use. More care tips are in our customer FAQ.
This product is covered by the Platinum® Elite Built for a Lifetime Limited Warranty, plus our 30-day return policy. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

The Platinum® Elite Carry-On Business Plus Hardside Spinner offers exceptional quality, smooth wheels, and a sophisticated look. It features practical exterior pockets and USB ports for charging on the go. However, some customers find the laptop pocket inflexible and the handle lacking.

"Appreciate the ease in moving with the spinners. Nice finish. Quality bag. Like the laptop pocket but its zipper can be difficult due to angles, charger pocket, internal pocket, expansion gusset. Thought it would have more internal space like my Hartmann, but the internal dividers make it difficult to pack boots and larger shoes. It’s as large as I can get without a check-in, so I’ll use it a lot given the à la carte pricing of airlines. Recommended."
"Platinum® Elite Carry-On Business Plus Hardside Spinner is a quality product. . . . my first ever carry -on that isn't a backpack. . . . and is my first run at a month or two in Mexico without a checked bag. . . . Beach areas and no need for urban dress codes, so 2 pairs pants, 2 pair shorts, two swin trunks, 5 pair jockies, 3 pair socks, bathroom kit, 5 silk/light cotton shirts, Birkenstocks is about it. . . . it hgolds 48 litres and fist in sizing cage. . . ."
"so far not sure that the interior space is as usable as similarly sized older Travel Pro suitcase."
"I waited to review this piece in order to allow me a few uses. This is my fourth Travelpro purchase. I am a repeat customer due to the exceptional quality of their products. This case is no exception. We bought 2 of the same case in order to replace old (different brand) carry ons bags. The inside organization is useful. This is the only hard side case I have ever owned that has a laptop pocket. I stored a folder with confirmation documents in it instead. The wheels glide so smoothly, the bags tried to roll away from us when we were stopped on an incline. Zippers glide smoothly as well. I appreciate the ability to lock the suitcase for when we are forced to gate check the bag or even when we leave our luggage at bell services in the hotel. I was able to pack a week’s worth of clothing for a “winter” trip to Florida. We also own a platinum elite soft side carryon and the suitcase I choose for a particular trip would depend on what and how much I want to put in the front pockets, since the soft front pockets can expand a bit. When traveling on international airlines I choose Travelpro’s maxlite international carry-on since weight and size limits are more of a consideration. Again, you can’t go wrong with Travelpro."
"zipper stuck; returned it."
"Bag rolls better than any bag of ever had. Exterior is finished nicely. Interior of bag is very good. The only negative is the amount of room the computer pocket takes away."
"The luggage is the right size and very light. The quality is superb. We own lots of Travelpro luggages and we’re very satisfied. You get your money’s worth and more."
"Platinum elite carry on business plus hard side spinner was purchased as part of a text promotion offered by Travelpro. The order was processed quickly and the item received ahead of schedule and initially out of the box, it looks like a great product. However, after checking all pockets/zippers for proper operation out of the bag, we discovered the top flap pocket zippers are both binding and not operating properly. We were barely able to zip them both open, but have been unable to re-zip to close the bag. They are too tight on the compound curve portion and afraid that any further effort or force placed on the zipper will damage/break it. A warranty replacement submission was provided along with photos, but more detail was requested by Travelpro warranty personnel, which other than a video is not available, they have numerous photos that we provided. . Travelpro has all we can provide short of a video which they cannot accept, we are told. Still waiting on a response to our second reply first of this week. Disappointed with the delay in response to a claim for a brand new piece of luggage."
"I'm very pleased with this purchase! The Platinum Elite Carry-On Hardside Spinner looks great and rolls effortlessly."
"Suitcase looks amazing. But it is smaller than our current carry-ons. Will see if it holds same amount since it does expand. Otherwise very pleased, we bought 2 of them."
