Here are things I know to be true: Water is wet, fire is hot, and Tumi makes a damn good suitcase. Sure, that last part may sound like an opinion, but remember: I'm someone who owns 36 wheeled suitcases, tests luggage professionally, and has been using Tumi suitcases for 18 years, so if you can't trust me, who can you trust?

According to thousands of Amazon shoppers, the Kroser 16-inch Underseat Carry-on Luggage is perfectly suited for such a task. This on-sale rolling underseat luggage can fit several days' worth of clothing and is flush with functional details, earning a stamp of approval from travelers and even flight attendants; one shared that they use it as a "turn" bag, which is a piece of luggage that flight crew members use for turnaround flight assignments that require a brief layover.

There's an art to packing a carry-on bag: everything has to be accessible, organized, and serve a purpose. As a carry-on-only traveler, I'm big on packing my personal bag with intention and keeping my luggage as streamlined as possible; as such, there are a few tried-and-true products I always pack. Luckily, Amazon's stacked travel deals section always gives me a great excuse to stock up on those travel essentials that make all the difference.
