Suitcase / Luggage
I know some of you guys do a lot of travelling, so thougth i would ask the question.
Looking for a decent family size suitcase, something that is light and has lots of space inside, and will last a few good years of getting bashed around airports.
Anyone have any recommendations.
Was looking at something like Hideo Wakamatsu Viewer Luggage - Viewer 75cm Case online from Going Places but not in red

I have one of these: Buy Revelation by Antler Grey Multi-Wheeled Holdall 70cm. at Argos.co.uk
It's light, huge, cheap but robust and doesn't look like it contains anything expensive or worth nicking

As above, I've got a couple of sets of Samsonite cases and can't really use them without going over weight.
For the last 5 years or so, we've been using soft roller bags. The best ones we have are the Dakine Convertibles as they split in half for checking in, so you can easily stay under the weight per bag limit, then zip them back together for easy transport.

Soft luggage - just make sure it's packed well.
Wheels - MAKE SURE IT HAS WHEELS!!!!!!!!
Shall I repeat that second one ...??
I think most of mine is Samsonite but most decent makes last for years even with lots of travelling.
Oh, and if it happens to be a common type of bag then ensure it can be identified. Green tape on the handle or something. Try picking your 'Snow and Rock' holdall off the luggage carousal when 50% of the other people on the plane have the same bag .....
