Carry-On Luggage

ATX 22-inch carry-on fits perfectly in most domestic and international airline overhead compartments, including smaller regional jets like CRJ 900 & 700. However, a few international carriers like Air Canada have 21.5-inch length limits. In worst-case scenarios, the ultra-durable construction means gate-checking is stress-free since your belongings are completely protected.

The ATX weighs 12.8 pounds empty, which is heavier than typical carry-ons but still well within most airline limits. Only carriers with strict weight limits (Hawaiian Airlines at 25 lbs, Frontier at 35 lbs) might be restrictive when fully packed. For most travelers, the extra weight is easily manageable and worth the protection.

Absolutely - the integrated TSA locks and hard-shell design actually speed up security screening. The waterproof, dustproof construction means nothing can leak or spill, and TSA agents appreciate the organized interior. Some users note that in Europe, Pelican-branded cases may get extra security attention due to their professional appearance, but this ensures even more thorough protection.

Extraordinary durability - users successfully stand on them (220+ pounds), drop them from baggage claims, and subject them to rough baggage handling with zero damage to contents. The Pelican Armor construction means scratches and scuffs on the exterior (which Pelican calls "Patina") while contents remain perfectly protected. Even when gate-checked unexpectedly, items inside don't shift positions.

Yes - complete waterproof and dustproof protection with sealed construction. The pressure equalization valve prevents issues during flight altitude changes. This protection is ideal for adventure travel, beach destinations, or any situation where moisture, dust, or spills could damage electronics, documents, or clothing.

elican backs all TRVL cases with their legendary lifetime warranty against defects and workmanship. Components like wheels, handles, and latches are field-replaceable by users. Cosmetic scratches aren't covered (they're considered normal "Patina"), but any functional failure gets repaired or replaced for life.
