Travel Pro Crew 10 or Maxlite
I have a Crew 5 and it has been great. It is a 22" but actually measuring close to 24" and is over 8 lbs. It got gate checked my last 3 flights so, I am searching for a slightly smaller carry on, the Maxlite 22" is really a 21" and seems pretty light. The Crew 10 is heavier. Since it should make carry on, and would therefore get less abuse, the Maxlite sounds real good !
Can you advise based upon your experience with these? Thanks!

I have a ""set" of Maxlite 2 bags that are standing up well to use. I believe the quality of materials would be slightly better with the Crew 10, but the Maxlite would weigh less. I would say it depends on how important a couple of pounds of weight is to you.
I've also noticed that the quality of materials is slightly better with Maxlite 2 or 3, rather than the newest Maxlite 4.
