Given updates to aircraft bins, which one of these two options would you recommend?
I would get the Cabin Plus. It fits in the DL A220 domestic F class bins, even with their size limiting divider in there. E-175 with no issues. I've used mine on all travels (domestic/international) in business/First class without issues. The extra space helps with international travel when you have to pack a suit, couple days of clothing, and gym clothes (Sneakers..etc).

I've you are flying AS DASH planes or any equivalent planes with limited luggage space, then I wouldn't recommend bringing the Rimowa, as it will be gate valet and perhaps damaged.
