Frequently Asked Questions
What's in this set?

Two separate spinners in matching colours: the Optima® Expandable Compact Cabin Spinner (55.9 x 35.6 x 22.9 cm overall, 3.1 kg, 39 L) and the Optima® Expandable Medium Check-in Spinner (68.6 x 43.2 x 29.2 cm overall, 4.2 kg, 74 L). Each is the same bag we sell individually.

Which piece can I take in the cabin?

The Optima® Expandable Compact Cabin Spinner is the cabin piece; the other piece travels as a checked bag. It is sizer bin tested, and its overall dimensions including wheels and handles are 55.9 x 35.6 x 22.9 cm. Published cabin bag limits for major European airlines:

AirlinePublished cabin bag limit
Ryanair55 x 40 x 20 cm
easyJet56 x 45 x 25 cm
British Airways56 x 45 x 25 cm
Lufthansa55 x 40 x 23 cm
Air France55 x 35 x 25 cm
KLM55 x 35 x 25 cm

By the published numbers it fits within the cabin bag limits at easyJet and British Airways. Airlines measure the overall size, wheels and handles included, and policies change, so always check your carrier before travel. Our airline guide covers more carriers. And if it does not work out, you can return it free within 14 days of receipt.

Do the checked pieces meet airline checked-bag limits?

Airlines add height, width and depth together for checked bags, and 158 cm is the standard limit on most European airlines, with standard checked bags usually capped at 23 kg. The Medium Check-in measures 68.6 + 43.2 + 29.2 = 141 cm overall, wheels and handles included, and sits within that limit. It weighs 4.2 kg empty, which leaves about 18.8 kg of packing under a 23 kg allowance. Allowances vary by airline and fare, see our luggage size guide.

Does expanding the bags change whether they fit airline sizers?

Yes. The zippered expansion adds extra packing depth, and a fully expanded Compact Cabin may not fit a strict airline sizer. If your airline enforces its sizer, board with it unexpanded and save the expansion for the trip home or checked segments. On the checked pieces the practical limits are the 158 cm linear size rule and your weight allowance rather than a sizer, so expand when you need to, but keep an eye on the scale.

How do the interiors keep packing organised?

Each piece has a built-in compression panel that maximises packing space while helping reduce shifting and wrinkles, plus a zippered divider, interior accessory pockets, hold-down straps and a dedicated water-resistant compartment to keep toiletries or damp items separate. The compression organiser is removable and can also be used to divide the main compartment.

How do I make a warranty claim or get repairs?

Start a claim through our customer contact form with photos of the issue and your proof of purchase, or make sure your product is registered in our database. If the issue is covered, Travelpro will repair the bag, replace the defective part, or replace the bag with a product of comparable value. You can also verify the coverage for your collection on our Warranty & Repair page.

What warranty does this set come with?

Travelpro products are covered against defects in materials and workmanship, on top of your 2-year legal guarantee of conformity under EU law. See our Warranty & Repair page for the coverage that applies to this set, plus a 14-day free returns period if you change your mind.

How do I clean and care for it?

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 each bag air dry completely before storing.
