Maxlite® 5 Drop-Bottom Weekender / Medium Check-In Set

Two separate bags in the same colour: the Maxlite® 5 Drop-Bottom Weekender (38 x 48 x 23 cm, 1.0 kg, 43 L) and the Maxlite® 5 Medium Expandable Soft Shell Spinner 69cm (69 x 47 x 29 cm overall, 3.08 kg, 91 L).

The Medium is the checked bag. The weekender is the bag you keep with you. Whether it boards as your cabin bag or as a personal item depends on your airline, so compare its 38 x 48 x 23 cm size with your airline's published limits before you fly. Our airline guide covers the major carriers.

Airlines add height, width and depth together for checked bag limits, and 158 cm is the common European limit. The Medium measures 145 cm including wheels and handles (68.6 + 47.0 + 29.2 cm), so it sits within that limit. More detail in our luggage size guide.

The weekender has an unobtrusive rear strap that fits around the extension handle of the Medium, so you can stack it on the spinner and roll both with one hand. Its drop-bottom compartment separates shoes or laundry from the rest of your packing.

The zippered expansion adds extra packing depth. On a checked bag the practical limits are the 158 cm linear size rule and your airline's weight allowance rather than a sizer, so expand freely on the way home, but keep an eye on the scale.

This set is covered by the Travelpro® 5 Year Warranty, which covers defects in materials and workmanship, on top of your 2-year legal guarantee of conformity under EU law, plus a 14-day free returns period if you change your mind.

Use a 50/50 mixture of alcohol and water, apply with a soft cloth, and gently rub the affected area until the spot lifts. Let the bag air dry completely before storing. A little lemon juice in the mixture freshens the fabric.
