So it's looking like I'm going to have to travel at least a few times for work this year and as a result I'm reviving this thread and looking for some advice for a good carry-on bag. My Red Oxx mini-ruk will serve "personal item" status quite nicely and I'm hoping to make all of these trips (which are all under 5 nights) without checking a bag.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
[Edit] There's currently a screaming deal on Amazon on the Tumi Tegra-Lite Max Continental Expandable Carry-On but it seems that its dimensions, specifically the 16" width, do not conform to many major airline's definition of a carry-on (limit of 14").
