I need a decent suitcase

misscomickat

I'm going to Poland next year for 4 months, and I need a decent large suitcase with wheels.

I'm going on Ryanair and have 20KG baggage allowance, which is going to be hard for such a long time, so I'd like a case as light as possible with as much space as possible!

I got my current case (which is a small wheelie) from TK Maxx and it's rubbish, it's really awkward to close, and the combination lock doesn't work.

I'm hoping to get one with some Christmas money, so I don't mind paying a bit more for a decent product that will last.

Anyone got any ideas of where I can get one or how much I will need to spend?

Thank you :beer:

I bought a largish one with wheels from Matalan a couple of years ago. If memory serves me right I paid about £20 for it - it has zips (also is expandable), I never trust combination locks that come with the suitcases so I buy my own from Pacmate. The case is a hard case and I use it everytime I fly which is about 6 times a year.

When it comes to packing, I stuff pants in shoes (takes up less space), I take my own towel (I got a bath towel from the camping shop that dries quickly), bath products go in smaller bottles (or I take free sachets), there's no need to take lots of clothes just one or two key items (trousers, skirt, leggings) with a couple of t-shirts, a jumper and a fleece. I even take a packamack thing in case it rains and it doesn't take up too much space.

Enjoy your trip to Poland.
