If you mean actual luggage - it could definitely get it into a decent sized suitcase, but I don't think it would go into the average carry-on sized case. Disassembled it will lay flat, but the main section is quite wide.

It is very portable when you fold it. I travelled with it from USA Africaand I just checked it in at the check in counter and picked it up when I got to my destination without stress.

I would say it's portable if you are traveling by car. The set up was easy all you have to do is stick the legs through the slots, but that did take some elbow grease, but was sturdy once put together. Unfortunately we found it to be too narrow for our needs, we had to return it.

This answer is helpful however I am trying to figure out how to accomplish this, more accurate questio is:Will two pieces fold in or does just one fold for transporting it or and storage ?

It does come unassembled. Whether it will fit in baggage depends on the size limits of the airline. Best to check box size and the airline baggage size numbers. You may have to pay an "oversize" fee.

It comes disassembled & in a box larger than a suitcase, so I'd imagine you'd need to investigate shipping it ahead to your destination.

No, you'd have to disassemble the legs from the center to store it compactly. It's doable, but not something you'd do regularly.

The shipping box was Unbelievably compact. Maybe 3" x 2" or 2 1/2" x 2 1/2". The travel bag is no larger than a carry on luggage bag. It is rather heavy when condensed but manageable by an adult or teen. Maybe 40 lbs?

It came in a box about 2'x3', which then it was in plastic. So my guess would be that you would have to take it out of the box then place in a large suitcase. It squishes pretty good then goes right back into shape. Hope that answers your question.

Completely disassembled it may fit in a carry-on, but you would have to check with your airline, sometimes they require a smaller carry-on depending on the size of aircraft you'll be boarding.

Greetings Lisa,Oh my, yes. Completely assembled it can be picked up and carried with just one hand, and it can be packed into a car without taking up much space. I wouldn't take it hiking though in my back pack. With its 8 - AA battery power source, the 127 loves to travel. I do believe its field weight (assembled) is 18 pounds.

It comes in a box, there's a little bit of assembly. The box if fairly big, so it might not fit into your luggage.

The platform's dimensions are 19-3/4" x 15-3/4". Yes the stand can be disassembled for travel by removing the top (this is the way it originally comes from the manufacturer) but I am not sure this is something you would want to routinely do since the assembled stand is fairly compact when folded.

Why not order it to be shipped there a head of you? I think the box it came in was approximately 2 foot cubed all the was around. it was vacuum sealed to fit in that small of a box, just dont think you'll ever get it back that box if you are not happy with it. You may be able to take it as luggage.

I would not try to fit it in luggage. It does fold down pretty compactly but it is very dense then, making it fairly weighty and will likely take you over any airline weight restriction causing extra fees, so you would need to factor that in.

Pretty easily...for quick transport, I just flip the top and bottom rails over so they're parallel with the main vertical support legs, then the whole thing is flat for carrying. But it gets even more compact if you also take off the center support (just a quick unscrewing of the knobs on either side), then the whole thing is in three easily moveable pieces.

It's not very heavy, but it's way too big and bulky to be carrying around. Moving it from one room of the house to another would be fine, but it would not be practical to transport anywhere.
