Review:
I've used the TravelPro for years. I was reluctant to replace my old one, but I am glad I did. This one is well made and lighter then my old one.

Best bag period!
By A Customer
from San Francisco CA USA
on Monday, October 03, 2016
Pros: Solid, versatile, no nonsense
Cons: None
Review:
I bought this to replace my 10+ year old Travel Pro. I find the nearly indestructible construction, coupled with the ample storage pockets to be a winning combination.

Best roller board ever
By Dan
from Spring Branch TX USA
on Friday, June 14, 2019
Pros: Roller skate wheels are quiet and roll with ease. Handles are in the right spotsfor easy lifting into the overhead. Telescoping handle is sturdy. Un-obstuctive large main compartment.
Cons: The personal bag holder is nice but I have difficulty getting it off my personal bag. Could just be me and the type of personal bag I have.
Review:
I have 1.7 million miles on Delta and Northwest and purchased several different roller board type bags over the years. None have had the feel of quality and sturdiness as this bag. There is a reason all the flight attendants use this bag! I have the expandable version just in case I need it, but I assume the regular version is the same quality

Good Bag - would buy again.
By Allen
from West Jefferson NC USA
on Friday, May 17, 2019
Pros: Smooth 2 wheel conveyance and durable construction
Cons: More "consumer" look than previous models and small side pockets
Review:
This is my first Travelpro bag and I have to say, with my limited experience so far, it is the best bag I have owned. I have only traveled with it on one trip, but so far so good. I would agree with some other reviews that I read that Travelpro has changed the outward design of the bag to look more "consumer" and less "industrial" or "professional". And I would agree that the side pockets of the Pilot version are not very deep and are only good for small items (but don't put sunglasses in them if you do not want them to get broken -- personal experience), if those are the only two drawbacks, then I have no other complaints. The bag rolls smoothly and the extra space with the expansion is very useful (although when fully packed, I had to work slightly to get it to fit into smaller overhead bins). As I said, the bag rolls very smoothly and easily. I do not understand why carry-on bags are moving to the "four-wheeled spin in every direction out of control" type of bag. Two wheels are SO much easier to control, move over curbs, cracks, etc. Overall, I would say this bag is well worth the money.

Living up to expectations
By Mark
on Friday, June 11, 2021
Pros: Smooth roller, feels bullet proof.
Cons: Initially thought I was going to struggle with the overhead volume. Proved to not be an issue on the flights so far.
Review:
This thing is bullet proof. Took a little time to adjust my packing style, as my older TP had the separator between the halves, but I think I'm getting more into the new TP Pilot. Users might find it a little heavy, especially with a two week trip, but I am sure it will make it. It has fit all of the over heads for carry on, so I'm happy. Also, the handlers have not gotten their hands on it yet.

Master Traveler loves his new bag
By Joel
from Reno NV USA
on Wednesday, April 06, 2022
Pros: Ease of rolling, sturdiness.
Cons:
Review:
Best Suitcase I have purchased in the past 30 years of International Travel. The one item that I would change is having additional plastic on top of the bag so my laptop bag does not dig into the fabric. I am very impressed with the quality of the construction. Wheels, retractable handle and zippers are all high quality.

Best rolling suitcase on the planet
By RichS
from Evansville IN USA
on Friday, April 08, 2022
Pros: Well made, light weight, rolls easy, fits overhead, is expandable
Cons: kind of pricey, but worth it
Review:
When I decided to get a new carry-on I wanted something that rolled easily, would fit the overhead bins and be expandable so I could pack more stuff. A pilot friend told me to check this out. I love it. It is extremely well made, but not too heavy. I love all of the little pockets for everything from my hearing aids to my laptop. Have told several friends about it and will keep telling them. Best suitcase I've ever owned.

Best rollaboard I've ever used
By Ronald
from Atlanta GA USA
on Saturday, April 23, 2022
Pros: Solid construction without excess weight
Cons: No cons that I can think of
Review:
After being a Hartman fan for 30+ years, I was a bit hesitant to try something "new." But seeing how many flight attendants and pilots use this option made we switch... and I'm never going back. It's decently light in weight but not in construction. Reinforcements at all the critical points (especially corners and the back of the unit where it's dragged across curbs and down stairs) plus the number of pocket options to keep you straight when packing. Since it's only a two-wheeler, there is plenty of room in the interior - an aspect missing from the 4-wheeled units. It also expands with or without the longitudinal zipper for stuffing in "one last item."

Pros: Multiple exterior zippered pockets. Well made. Rolls easily.

Great suitcase!!!
By Kyle
from Greensboro NC USA
on Tuesday, March 19, 2019
Pros: Great design with well thought out pocket placement. Durable and well built.
Cons: None.
Review:
This bag is super durable and has great construction. The zippered pockets are well thought out. I travel a ton for work and my luggage typically only lasted a couple years at most. Finally, I found a bag designed how I wanted that looks robust enough to be thrown around by baggage handlers. It is still early but the bag is holding up very well. Seriously this isn't some department store junk. It is the real deal.
Also, the service from mypilotstore was great. Customer service on the phone was great and friendly. Bag shipped and arrived quickly. No worries there.

Great bag, great deal and worth waiting for
By Mr. Bonanza
from San Diego
on Sunday, October 30, 2022
Pros: Quality throughout. Nothing can touch it for the price.
Cons: Can't think of anything
Review:
I have an original Travelpro Rollaboard Suiter 22 over twenty years old and only just this year developed a tear underneath. This old bag has gone everywhere for two decades and still meets the current carry-on requirement and fits overhead straight on the way the airlines prefer bags to be oriented. I have never owned a better bag than this Travelpro.

Exceptional Bag
By NetJets Pilot
from S Florida
on Tuesday, May 16, 2023
Pros: Lightweight, easy to handle yet durable
Cons: None
Review:
Both durable and light. Handles everywhere you need them; top, side, and bottom. Easy to handle unlike Luggage-works. Great pocket set up - I put a soda and water bottle in side pockets. I’m on my second one, lasts about 5+ years with extreme use (NetJets Pilot; 8 day tours). Eventually the handle got sticky and I broke a wheel axle dropping it 6 feet from a Challenger Jet baggage compartment. Zippers never gave out. Love the add a bag hook. I will not use anything else!
