WHY WE MADE THIS

The Expandable Carry-On Max with Front Pocket is designed for travelers who prefer to keep their laptop and quick-access essentials in their carry-on rather than in a tote or backpack. The tone-on-tone hardshell front pocket fits up to a 16" laptop, a pullover, and in-flight must-haves—adding accessible storage while slightly reducing space in the main compartment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Arlo Skye different from other luggage brands?

Arlo Skye was founded by former Louis Vuitton and TUMI execs who spent a collective 23 years working on luxury products and travel goods. Every product is designed in New York with the same attention to materials and detail you would expect from a luxury house, but sold directly to you at a fraction of the price.

Our luggage uses German Makrolon polycarbonate shells, ultra-quiet Japanese Hinomoto ball-bearing swivel wheels (50mm diameter for carry-ons, 60mm diameter for checked luggage for superior maneuverability), antimicrobial lined interiors that eliminate odors, and a simple yet effective X-strap compression system. We pioneered the first ejectable power bank system in a carry-on and introduced a top-load trunk design that opens like a top-load washer for easier packing, less strain, and takes up 50% less footprint.

Our signature champagne colorway, minimalist aesthetic, and thoughtful details have earned recognition from Condé Nast Traveler, who voted Arlo Skye the #1 carry-on. We have also collaborated with brands like Audi, Palihouse Hotels, Auberge Resorts, and Dusen Dusen for MoMA Design Stores.

Which bags fit in the overhead bin, and which need to be checked?

Cabin approved: Carry-On Max and Carry-On Max with Front Pocket

Airline carry-on rules usually start with 22 x 14 x 9 inches. We start with the airport.

For over 10 years, we have tested our carry-ons in real sizers, overhead bins, and aircraft cabins to find the extra usable space most spec sheets miss. The Carry-On Max and Carry-On Max with Front Pocket are built around that real-world fit, giving you more packing room without the usual gate-side anxiety.

More than 50,000 customers fly with our carry-ons across the globe.

One note: basic-economy fares, packed flights, and very small aircraft can still require gate-checking any carry-on. If you fly those often, check your airline's fare and aircraft rules before you go.

Check-in approved: Check-In Medium, Check-In Large, and Top-Load Trunk Large

Our checked bags are built for the cargo hold, with the three airline rules that actually matter in mind: size, weight, and batteries.

Size: Most airlines use 62 linear inches as the oversize limit. The Check-In Medium stays comfortably under it. The Check-In Large and Top-Load Trunk Large are built right up to the line for maximum packing space without oversize fees.

Weight: Keep your checked bag under 50 lb to avoid overweight charges.

Batteries: Power banks, spare lithium batteries, and vapes should never be packed inside checked luggage. Keep them in your carry-on, where airline safety rules require them.

What is Arlo Skye's warranty on luggage?

Arlo Skye luggage is backed by a 5-year warranty covering manufacturing defects in parts and workmanship for the original owner.

The warranty does not cover cosmetic wear such as scratches, dents, scuffs, or stains that occur during normal use, nor damage caused by intentional abuse.

If your luggage is damaged by an airline, file a claim directly with the airline first, then contact us. We are happy to send you a replacement part or repair your bag. We don't make a profit on any repairs or parts — we just want to keep you traveling with your Arlo Skye.

For minor repairs like locks, handles, and wheels on polycarbonate cases, we ship replacement parts with step-by-step instructions at no charge.

If your luggage needs to come in for service at one of our repair centers in Florida or New York, parts and labor are free. A $20 flat shipping fee applies for round-trip transit — we subsidize the remainder of the shipping cost. Turnaround is typically 1–5 business days once received.

The warranty applies to purchases made through arloskye.com and authorized retailers only. Products purchased on secondary marketplaces such as eBay, Amazon, or Etsy are not covered. For full details visit arloskye.com/pages/warranty.

    Good job

    As an ardent traveler going to remote places where weight in tiny planes is an issue, this is a welcome suitcase to place my camera, etc. The front compartment for my tablet takes the weight out of my backpack and adds a bonus. The outer shell looks good when going to "established" places. The extra bags and pouches are a plus.

    I've never seen it, but could the wheels be partially incorporated into the shell and providing small interior pockets ?

    This bag is much better than my husband's Away bag

    A FABULOUS purchase

    This lightweight carry-on has several 'spots' to place last minute items and it truly will fit several days of clothing, with extra space when packed thoughtfully.

    THE BEST CARRY-ON

    First new luggage in 29 years and I wanted to try softsides.The color is beautiful and the perfect size to carry my laptop, cords, paper & pens in the front compartment and plenty of room for my shoes and clothing inside main area.The expansion is wonderful! I love the zippered bags inside where I can place my small clothing items. Very well made and sturdy and consists of new Polycarbonate materials and so lightweight for me to roll on these fabulous wheels! I am super picky after waiting years to buy new luggage and I would recommend Arlo Skye to everyone!

    Lightweight and holds a lot!

    This bag really surprised me, mostly in a good way. It holds a lot of stuff! Being 6'3" with size 13 shoes, packing light is always a challenge. The compression works great too, and the outer pocket is really nice to have. I checked the bag on my first flight and didn't even have to use the expander.

    Now the other surprises. The expander has a wee sticky spot, but no big deal. And after my first trip, there are finish chips/scrapes on the corners. I bought the champagne color, and it looks great, but that may not last long. All in all, I'm very happy with the bag because of its practicality for me.

    perfect carry on

    love this bag, it's yellow brings a smile every time I pull it out. It travels easily, fits in overheads on both big jets and CR-J's. It allows me to carry a few more things that I may not need while in flight, but don't want to put into a checked bag. Versatile, strong, and surprisingly roomy. A go to bag for the foreseeable future!
