U.S. Free Ground Shipments

Arlo Skye offers free U.S. ground shipping within the 48 contiguous states. Here are the estimated calendar-day delivery times for in-stock products:

  2. US Southeast: 3-6 days
  3. US Central: 4-6 days
  4. US West Coast: 5-7 days

Actual timing may vary from these estimates due to inclement weather, holiday season rush, or other unforeseen reasons out of our control.

U.S. Express Orders

We offer Overnight and 2-Day Express shipping options at check out. If your express order is placed before 1 p.m. EST, the following business day will be counted as the 1st day. If your order is placed after 1 p.m. EST then your order will ship the following business day.

That means you will receive your package on Wednesday.  Similarly, if you place your Overnight order on Friday night, we will only ship it on Monday with an arrival date of Tuesday.

U.S. Express shipments for Carry-Ons

All of our Carry-Ons have a removable airline-compliant fast charger (featuring USB C and A ports). FedEx has a rule that requires a signature on delivery for all products containing spare chargers that are shipped via Express. They will not make any exceptions to this policy. A signed note that is left on the door will not be sufficient for FedEx to drop the package off. This rule does NOT apply to Ground shipments. It only applies to Carry-Ons shipped via Express. None of our other products come with spare chargers.

"I love the design of this bag—it feels like a reliable, sleek rolling bag, with design you’ll never get tired of."

We used an aircraft grade aluminum alloy, sourced from the USA, to design our most durable and secure case. The shell, wraparound frame, top corner caps, and hinges are all made from hard-coat anodized aluminum alloys.

    Purchased in 2016 - Best Luggage Ever (Seriously)

    I purchased The Frame aluminum carry-on in 2016 and have used it for every trip since - at least a dozen per year. I added the The Frame checked bag in 2019 and have had an excellent experience with both. My husband purchased both pieces in black as well. Locks, wheels, zippers, etc. all function like new on all four pieces. The aluminum carry ons have a few small dents from rough handling but nothing extensive. My favorite feature is how quiet the wheels are and the fact that they don't stick or get wonky.

    Its like BUTTER, baby…

    Loving the looks of this slick carry on..: I don’t know what it is, but its a totally different feeling hauling around this aluminum wonder of a luggage… it seems like butter is flowing out of the wheels due to the smooth feeling…

    Overall, the BEST carryon luggage I ever had…

    Great!

    My wife loves it. Very sturdy construction. Not much different than our Rimowa luggage which is 3x the price!

    Best luggage ever

    This luggage checks all boxes. Impeccable style, easy to use charger (VERY fast), locks, and even fits in Ryanair cabin. Oh yeah and HALF the price of Rinowa and Tumi and better looking!
