I have had a travelpro pilot's bag for 16 years and nothing has broken but the zipper pulls...looks like these folks have some stuff on sale right now, too...

Samsonite. Good quality and it won't break the bank.

Honestly - and I buy nicer shite now, which is why I have a set of Victorinox - the best rolling tote that I have ever owned was a Kenneth Cole Laptop Bag. I got no less than half a million miles out of that fricker and it still rolled when I dumped it due to the straps busting and holes forming in the fabric.

I got it for $125.00 at Macy's.

This is the one I am strongly considering but it's still more than I want to pay. It's a good size for what I need

If anyone is looking for a bag for Spirit Airlines, this is it. It has great reviews and fits within the free personal item size on Spirit. It's actually a little taller than their limit but still slipped right in the size checker with no problem. Also it fits perfectly under the seat. You can easily fit 4-5 days of stuff in there.

About 5 years ago, I got a really nice set of Kenneth Cole luggage that's all leather, and it's been very, very good to me. I hope I never have to get anything else.
