The Chromium
Lite Collection
The Expandable Spinner
Carry-On by Delsey
BY CLAUDIA PAREDES
Delsey is known for their wide
selection of premium bags.
Whether you are traveling for
the weekend, or planning a
longer vacation, you will find
the perfect bag that suites
your particular needs.
The Chromium Lite is one
of 18 collections currently
available by Delsey. You
will find four different bags
under this collection. The 19"
international carry-on which
is ideal for those cross-
continental flights. The 21"
expandable spinner carry-on
will be accepted as a carry-
on by most airlines—Delta,
Unites, American—that have
a max carry-on size of 22",
so this one is totally fine,
but keep in mind that the
expandable feature might
push that limit. If you will
be checking a bag, the 25"
expandable spinner upright
is more than enough to
handle the 50lbs weight
limit enforced by airlines
on checked bags, but if for
some reason you have larger
items that need a larger
suitcase, the 29" is available
for only $20 more.
I have flown with the 21"
expandable spinner carry-
on and I have never had an
issue with a flight attendant.
They will occasionally ask
me to test if it will fit inside
their regulatory bins, which
will determine if the carry-on
is indeed carry-on approved
size. The 21" expandable
spinner always passes with
flying colors.
I have searched a while for
a carry-on that I like. As
soon as I came across this
one, it became my go-to
carry-on for two reasons:
it's light and I can easily
access both compartment.
