Choose luggage by size

Cabin suitcases are best for short trips and carry-on travel where airline rules allow. Medium suitcases are the most versatile check-in choice for many travellers. Large suitcases provide extra capacity for longer journeys, bulky clothing and family packing.

Hard-shell or softside luggage?

Choose hard-shell luggage if you prefer a structured, easy-clean case. Choose softside luggage if you value flexibility, external pockets or a softer construction. Neither is automatically better; the right choice depends on the journey, airline and packing style.

For a direct comparison, see our hard-shell vs softside luggage guide.

Shop luggage by brand

Airline baggage planning

Do not rely on the word “cabin” or “check-in” alone. Airlines set their own baggage dimensions and weight limits. Always check your current ticket and route before travel. For hand luggage planning, see our cabin luggage and Kenya Airways baggage guide. For bush-flight connections, read the Kenya safari flight luggage guide.

Frequently asked questions

What suitcase size is best for a one-week trip?

A medium suitcase is a practical starting point for many travellers, but your airline allowance and packing style should decide.

Is a 55cm suitcase always cabin size?

No. Many 55cm cases are designed for cabin travel, but airline limits vary. Check the exact external dimensions and your carrier’s current rules.

Should I buy hard-shell or soft luggage?

Choose based on structure, flexibility, trip type and airline requirements rather than assuming one is universally better.
