一、海外旅行に最適なスーツケースの選び方

Unlike domestic travel, when traveling abroad, three things are extremely important: durability, security, and drivability.

Let's choose based on the following points:

■ 1. 渡航先と日数に合わせた「容量」と「サイズ」

When traveling abroad, your luggage tends to increase with souvenirs and extra clothes.

  • Recommended volume: 10L to 15L per day.
    3-5 nights (Asia, etc.): 60-80L (M size)
    More than one week (USA, Europe, etc.): 90L or more (L size)
  • Checked baggage restrictions: Many airlines have a limit of 158cm for the total of three dimensions of free checked baggage. When choosing an L size, it is a good rule of thumb to choose a model that does not exceed this limit (such as the L size of NewTrip). The material of the suitcase has a significant impact on the weight, durability, and protective performance. There are two types of suitcases: hard and soft.

■ 2. 海外の過酷な荷扱いに耐える「素材と堅牢性」

It's not uncommon to see suitcases being tossed and stacked at airports overseas.

  • Polycarbonate (PC): Lightweight yet highly impact-resistant, this is the most recommended material for international travel. 100% PC materials like 0502 are characterized by their ability to flex and absorb shock, making them less likely to break.
  • Corner pads: Choosing a model that protects the corners, which are most susceptible to damage, with pads such as alloy will dramatically extend the life of the case itself.

■ 3. 最新のセキュリティ「TSAロック」

TSA locks are now the global standard, not just for travel to the United States (including Hawaii and Guam).

  • TSA008 Lock: Models equipped with the latest standard, TSA008, offer increased security.
  • Cylinder type vs. dial type: Dial type locks are the most popular because you don't have to worry about losing your key, but you should choose a type that is easy for you to manage.

■ 4. 石畳や長距離移動を支える「走行性能」

Whether you're on the cobblestone streets of Europe, in a large airport, or on the long walk from the station to your hotel, the quality of your casters can make or break your trip.

  • Quiet and smooth: The quiet casters are resistant to wear and provide incredibly smooth movement.
  • Stable multi-wheel design: When traveling abroad and carrying heavy luggage, an eight-wheel (double caster) model or a five-wheel model with training wheels like the 0211 provides stability over bumps and rough roads.

三、購入かレンタルか？自分に合った選び方

When considering a suitcase for overseas travel, especially a large L-size one,

Deciding whether to buy or rent can be a tough choice. Here's a summary of the advantages of each.

1. Advantages of rental services

  • No storage space needed: If you only travel abroad once a year, a large suitcase will take up a lot of space at home. If you rent one, you only need to keep it with you when you travel.
  • Try out the latest high-performance models: You can actually use the latest NewTrip models you're interested in overseas, and then consider purchasing them after you're satisfied with them.

2. Benefits of purchasing

  • Lower overall cost: If you plan to travel three or more times, buying is significantly cheaper than renting.
  • The attachment to it as your travel companion: The joy of owning a travel bag is that you can imprint "travel memories" on it as your own personal tool, whether it's by adding your own stickers or using your familiar packing methods.

四、海外旅行でのスーツケース利用の注意点

  • Lost luggage and theft prevention: Since many suitcases look similar, attach a distinguishing belt or tag. Also, as a precaution, always keep valuables in your carry-on luggage.
  • Reconfirm airline regulations: Especially when using low-cost carriers (LCCs), weight and size restrictions can be very strict. Check the latest information from your airline in advance and be careful not to exceed size limits when using extensions such as 0201.

A trustworthy suitcase is what will support you during the special experience of traveling abroad.

The "0702Plus" boasts superior security features, while the "0502" makes travel more elegant.
