Design and Size

The Airport Advantage roller is specially designed to maximize gear for carry-on use for small aircraft, such as commuter and regional jets, while meeting U.S. and international airline carry-on requirements. But before purchasing, it is important to check with your airline for current carry-on requirements. The exterior dimensions measure 12.7” W x 19.5” H x 7.3” D (32.3 x 49.5 x 18.5 cm), which is well within the carry-on limits of most airlines. The roller is incredibly lightweight, weighing only 5.9 lbs. (2.7kg), allowing you to stay under weight restrictions and avoid extra fees.

Interior and Capacity

The inside of the Airport Advantage roller is thoughtfully designed to accommodate all your camera gear. The interior dimensions measure 12” W x 18” H x 4.9–6.4” D (30.5 x 45.7 x 12.4–16.3 cm), which provides ample space for all your necessary gear. The roller can hold one gripped DSLR with lens attached, one standard size DSLR with lens attached plus 3–4 additional lenses, and a 15” laptop in a dedicated pocket. It is worth noting that the laptop pocket is padded and will protect your laptop during travel, but it may also expand the external dimensions of the roller.

Quality and Durability

The Airport Advantage roller is made of high-quality durable materials, ensuring the safety of your equipment while on the road. The roller is made of a water-resistant nylon shell, which is perfect for unexpected rain showers or accidental spills. All the zippers on the roller are YKK RC Fuse zippers, adding an extra layer of security to your gear.

Ease of Use

The Airport Advantage roller is designed with functionality in mind. The roller has built-in lockable zippers, which provide extra security during travel, particularly during flights.
