Delicious ! I had to order these after flying on Jet Blue. I wanted my own collection at home.

I travel often for work and spend more time than I would like to consider living out of my suitcase.  Therefore, a nice one can make a big difference.  This one has a ton of smart and thoughtful features to make travel easier.  First, the wheels can rotate 360 degrees.  This means it is very easy to do a fast turn with the luggage.  As a short person, I appreciate that the handle telescopes and locks into two heights. I have done 2 flights with this since I received it and the carry on fit in the overhead luggage easily.  I didn't find it too heavy (and I am only 5 feet zero).  There is a zipper lined waterproof pouch which I have used for toiletries (if you have precheck and don't need to remove liquid and toiletries) and another mesh pouch for things like shoes or accessories.

The larger suitcase will be good for family travel.  I never bring a large suitcase when I travel for business but I do when I travel with my family.  The waterproof lining will be great for wet swimsuits.

Another nice feature is that the zippers are color coded.  Red zippers are for expanding the luggage and black open the luggage.

I pretty much love everything about this luggage.  Highly recommend!

My job needs travel a lot and I have to done much my work in the plane. I'm looking for a portable keyboard that helps me to done my work in the plane with my iPad for long time. This foldable Bluetooth keyboard is perfect for me. Does it not only easy to carry but it comfortable to use because the size of the key is like typing with your regular keyboard or laptop. It also build in rechargeable battery and you don't need to worry to replace battery and you just need use mini usb to charge. So far I love it. If you are a frequent traveler and need to be done your work in any place, this keyboard is design for you.

To be upfront, I was given an advanced copy of this book in exchange for a review. That said, I would gladly purchase one or multiple copies of book. It's that good.

Whether you are a vacationer, a business traveler, or lucky enough to be a digital nomad, Mish does a great job of sharing actionable tips for any and all travelers. My favorite tips were in the packing section, as I am notorious for overpacking for any vacation that I take.
Two thumbs up!

I don't think its news to anyone that travelling is rapidly becoming a nightmare. There are the security lines and waits; the delayed or cancelled flights; the ever-shrinking seats and leg room; whatever passes for food on the plane; and the tension-filled environment by the time the passengers board.
Add to that, the restrictive luggage regulations. I had a perfectly good set of suitcases which Ive had to get rid of because, though sturdy, they took up too much of my allotted weight. To make matters worse, not only are you allowed less luggage, inches and ounces count. Most airlines allow you one free (but highly regulated) bag for domestic flights. Some, like Spirit, make you pay for even the first bag.
For example: American allows you 50 lbs and a height+width+length total of 62 inches. Jet blue gives you 51 lbs, and a 63 total. Spirit gives you 62 and 40 lbs. If you have to change airlines during your trip, your best bet is to go with the requirements of the strictest airline. (Although I went from AA to Berlin Air and then to Luftansa and no one checked if I was a couple of inches or ounces off).
Carry ons: AA 22+14+9; Ditto for Jet Blue; Spirit 22+18+10. In all cases, the handle and wheels count towards the height.
SIZE CONSIDERATIONS:
This set meets the following criteria:
--the largest suitcase:  60.5 in and weighs 9.8 lbs. (using the bathroom scale I got weights as low as 8.8, depending on placement9.8 is the worst case scenario). Since none of the airlines specify including the wheels as part of the measurements for checked-in luggage, I didn't include it.)
--the medium suitcase:  51 inches and the highest weight it registered was 8.2 lbs.
--the carry on is 15.2 + 13.5 + 9 and weighs 7 lbs. The airlines DO require that you count the wheels and whatever protrudes of the handles and those are factored into these measurements.
QUALITY AND FEATURES CONSIDERATIONS:
 The build is impressive. Quality of fabric is greatits supposed to be micro ballistic with moisture barrier. Im not sure what the ballistic part means (bullet proof? Resistant to mistreatment by angry luggage handlers?). But Im very happy about the moisture barrier because Ive seen and experienced having luggage sit in the rain and snow while preparing to transport to baggage pickup and finding that my clothes, while not wet, are moist and cool and have to be hung up to air. Id rather have them be dry, especially if Im only staying overnight in the first stop.
 The zippers run smoothly, even around corners. No loose threads or sloppy workmanship in zipper area or anywhere else.
 The interior is plastic lined, has interior zippered compartments, a separate area for wet clothing (or anything you want to be separated from the rest) and securing straps.
 The handles open and close smoothly and the mechanism doesnt take up a lot of space on the inside of the suitcase. The wheels turn and twist smoothly, even when the suitcase is filled to capacity. This should make running through the airport easier. (Not fun, just easier.)
 There are outside zippers on all suitcases. These also run smoothly. (Anything you might want to put inside those areas is not factored into the total sizes I listed above.
 The suitcases nest easily into one another making storage that much easier.

MY ONE COMPLAINT:
 Even though the suitcase zippers are in two parts, the distance between the two zipper heads is too wide to be able to secure one of those TSA combination locks that I like to use. So the suitcase would have to travel unsecured or I might try those plastic ties. Its just a fraction of an inch, but enough that the lock cant be closed.

This Just Planes DVD may be unique. Capt. Coupez of Brussels Airlines takes the A330 into two West African nation's airports; Banjul, The Gambie and Conarkry, Guinea, both of which have no operating navigation aids. Only radio contact with the airport's control towers is available. All operation is by visual flight rules. And Capt. Coupez notes that when landing at these airports the pilot must also be alert to animals that may be on the runway and birds in the area as both airports are in coastal areas. It seems rather incredible that modern jet aircraft would attempt such an operation, but, maybe the technology of such aircraft is just what makes this possible. Anyway it is thrilling to watch! The flights operating to Eskisehir, Turkey and Geneva, Switzerland are tame by comparison. Though in Turkey the landing and takeoff are on a narrow taxiway as the runway is undergoing rehabilitation. This is a fascinating video!

In anticipation of my Eurotrip this summer, a friend recommended "The Traveling Professor." It's not as in-depth about the city as the DK guidebooks, but, what I appreciate most about this book is the attention to touring etiquette, from ordering like a local to avoiding scam artists trying to pull the wool over the tourist eye. I would recommend it for those purpose, but, if you're looking for more architectural information, this may not satisfy your craving. Happy traveling!

Although it seems that this book is mainly targeted to folks who are unencumbered by work commitments and are in the luxurious position of having long stretches of time on their hands, I think it can also be of really great value to anyone who has a weekend to spare on an international business trip, to students studying and traveling abroad, and couples looking for ways to stretch their dollars on their annual 2-week vacations.
  I'm very interested in trying all the suggestions for packing lighter. There's almost nothing I hate worse than running through an international airport trying to catch a connecting flight while carrying and dragging what seems like twice my body weight in clothes and travel paraphernalia.
  And traveling to a destination via a repositioning cruise! What a way to start a vacation. No jet lag. No sleeping in a chair (unless it's on a deck). Breathing only fresh air with time to do more homework on sites to visit. My wife Paula and I will certainly try this.
  Most importantly, this book has convinced us to take a different tack on vacation travel. Instead of our usual new city each day filled with dawn to dusk cultural tours, Paula and I would like to settle into an interesting site and take a more relaxed approach to absorbing our surroundings, the people, and their culture.

Perfectly sized for business air travel. It's not quite the size of letter paper at 9.25"X7.25" and it fits in the smaller pockets on my travel backpack and doesn't take up the whole tray table.

The sticker tabs, front, and side labels are excellent. They are great for marking important pages for future reference. All of the blueline notebook I've gotten in the past have featured these stickers.

I've gotten the larger notebook with the hidden rings, which is nice for laying the notebook flat, but I'm enjoying the cheaper price and the smaller notebook. Highly recommend any Blueline product!

Very comfortable, handy and cool looking innovative travel pillow. I have tried other travel pillows on long distance flights- none met my expectations. I often suffer from a stiff neck and related headaches- this new thing really made a difference and allows for some sleep on long distance flights! Business or fist class remains the better choice, but this thing honestly helps to upgrade your economy class experience! On top it is not bulky and easy to store in hand luggage or at home and looks still good after a 30C wash. I now keep it in my car's glove compartment- we also use it for the passenger on longer road trips.
GREAT product! THANK YOU

Love this bag.  My husband liked it so much he asked for one, as well.  Works GREAT as a carry on bag while flying.  The stewardesses I encountered actually allowed me to keep in on my lap during take off and landing.  Is it considered a 'small, personal item', perhaps?  Regardless, lots of pockets and places to stash goodies.  On a side note, I know this is used for EDC, but I would LOVE to see an organization type panel in the front (pens, pencils, keys, etc.)  The double zippers (which helped keep things from falling out!) were indispensable, especially while keeping up with active toddlers in an airport! For comparison, I ordered several bags of this same size and type from Amazon.  This one was -- by far -- the winner.  Excellent stitching, pockets in the right place, sturdy double zippers.  Side note: the inside 'lining' is a little thin and I don't expect it to last very long.  It's not a deal breaker, tho.  Overall, extremely satisfied.

I just received my Bluesmart roller suitcase last week and took it on a weekend trip to San Francisco. I love this new bag! When I opened the box, the first thing that stood out to me was the beautiful design. The four-wheel design feels really smooth and easy to control. I was happy to ditch my old bag that had two wheels and constantly fell over. The day I left for my trip, I ran out of the office in a hurry and didn't have much juice on my phone. I got stuck on a long work call while I was waiting to board. Instead of stressing out about trying to find an outlet, I was able to find a quiet corner, take advantage of the built in battery by plugging straight into the bag, and focus on my call. I was only gone for 3 days, but I typically pack quite a bit, and I am always fearful that I am going to get hit with overweight fees from the airlines, so I LOVE the scale feature! How smart of this company?! Now I can decide while I am packaging at home if all the shoes are necessary, and save myself some money.  I also travel a lot for work and carry work sample to meetings, which can get pretty heavy. It will be super convenient to know if I should move some weight over to my backpack or not. The bag did not leave my sight, so I did not use the locking feature from my phone, but this will come in very handy if I ever check my bag. I never thought I would need a bag with this much technology, but now that I found this one it is all I have been raving about.

This is perfect for the frequent flyer. It is always a real sight seeing scores of travelers searching for an electrical plug.at the airports, just to find that the one that is available does not work.  I used my new unit last week and was able to recharge my IPad and phone.  It charged both items and still had plenty of juice left.  I would highly recommend this unit.  It has a nice travel pouch and it weighs very little in your carry on bag. You do need to purchase a plug for charging the actual unit, but the cost is minimal.  No more searching for non existent sockets!

If you want advice on doing business in a particular country, where would you seek advice?  How about a seasoned expatriate businessman and a local attorney with deep knowledge of the tax system?  If that's your answer, then you've come to the right place.

I have many years of experience in Brazil, but I found this book insightful and full of interesting anecdotes and useful information.  It is well-written and easy to read.  This book costs one percent of the airfare from Atlanta to Sao Paulo, but adds a lot more insight than the in-flight magazine.  I highly recommend it.

I happened on this book boarding a plane to Kenya. A better travel companion I can not imagine: smart, kind, informative, illuminating.

I travel for a living and these pants work really well for (more casual) business casual dress.  They are also great for those long international flights.
