Twenty five years ago suit carriers were the ‘go to bag’ for frequent flyers.
Now you rarely see them.
In the late 90’s I was living away from home for 2 years and used my suit carrier every week for the whole period.
These days I rarely wear a suit, or business shirts and some airlines are weighing carry on so it doesn’t come out so often.
It has not been completely forgotten as I would still use it 2-3 times a year, mainly for me and my wife on an overnight stay.
Advantages
- Great for times when you need to travel with formal clothes.
- Quick and easy to pack.
- Great in the hotel room; just lay it on a counter or hang it in the wardrobe
Disadvantage
- Much heavier than my Go To Carry On.
- Not as ‘Trendy’ as the wheeled bags
Overall
I would never get rid of my suit carrier even though it’s not my main bag. . . . its still useful for certain trips
