Away The Carry-On review

Away The Carry-On costs the same $275 as Monos and gives a little more room at 41 L. Away lists the exterior at 22 x 14.4 x 9.1 in. with handles and wheels and describes it as its standard international-compliant size; the width and depth are a fraction of an inch over the 14 x 9 in. figure, which most sizers tolerate but strict gate agents may not. The shell is 100% polycarbonate with a TSA-approved lock, 360-degree wheels and a quick-release handle with two heights. Away's strongest point is coverage: LifetimeCare covers functional damage from manufacturing defects or rough travel, repairs are free for the first five years, and Away will provide up to one replacement in that period if a repair is not possible. Returns of unused bags are free within 100 days. At 7.5 lbs it is heavier than Monos. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test the bag.
