Going to try with my cabin max and see how I get on

Good luck. It is worth the “effort” to travel HBO and it saves so much time and aggro. It also becomes super straightforward with practice.

Personally I am a fan of correctly sized Tumi rollaboards although they’re not at all easy on the eye sadly. Easily big enough for a long trip.

Biggest HBO challenge IMHO is pairs of shoes. Basic advice is wear the bulkier pair on board and only pack max one more pair unless they’re squashy La Portegna type things!
