well, if it’s the width you’re concerned about, try to remember the last time your carryon was challenged into a dimension locker thingie at the gate? It hasnt happened to me in years.
Just make your own opinion about the looks of it. To me It looked very large and i tried to put myself in a ground crew shoes seeing someone with this large suitcase in the boarding queue. But then again, i ordered both so obviously the plus looked big next to the regular.
i think your choice will be easier and come naturally once you see it in person.
