The bags are all underweight, but oversize by about 3" all around when you add wheels and handle.

Should I buy new suitcases or do you think they will let it go? Do they every actually measure checked bags?

Thank you for any suggestions.

I have an oversized Samsonite suitcase. I never had any problems with it. They are only looking for the weight.
