Airlines
How does TAKE OFF Luggage avoid baggage fees?
With our signature removable wheels, our Personal Item Suitcases (non expandable) measure 18 x 14 x 8 inches to fit in airlines personal item sizers, which also allows the suitcase to fit under the seat. With the suitcase fitting under the seat, some airlines consider it a personal item and allow it to fly for free.
**Please be sure to check airlines size requirements to ensure the luggage fits.*
How to test luggage to see if it will fit as a personal item?
Most airlines have a personal item bin in front of their ticket counter, so you can test your luggage before you book a flight. Simply put the luggage inside the bin and see if it fits. You can also find the airlines personal item dimensions online.
What are the size dimensions of the TAKE OFF Luggage
TAKE OFF Luggage measures 18"H x 14"W x 8"D inches with the wheels removed. With the wheels on the height measures 20"H inches
How to remove and put on TAKE OFF Luggage's wheels?
Removing and reattaching the wheels is really easy.
To remove the wheels, simply press the two yellow tabs on each wheel and pull apart.
To reattach, align the two yellow tabs with the openings on the wheels, and press together until it clicks.
Does the TAKE OFF Luggage fit every airline personal item size requirements?
The TAKE OFF Luggage was designed to be an underseater luggage, however every airline has different size requirements, so please check your local airline dimensions before purchasing.
My luggage won't fit in the bin, why?
If the suitcase meets the airlines measurements of 18 x 14 x 8 inches and you've seen the luggage fit inside the bin before, or the measurement says it should, you may have overstuffed the suitcase. If you overstuff it, it does expand a little and that difference may prevent it from fitting inside properly. Try removing an item or two and see if that works.
