Here, in no particular order, are my brief notes on the 11 best types of luggage for traveling the world (or home) and some major suitcases Singapore manufacturers.
For price reasons, I’ve decided to follow the sub-$500 luggage and the high-end $100+ Features.
For those of you who buy those big, cheap suitcases Singapore, remember that you get what you pay for. Also, the term “best” is a relative concept.
And “best” is, after all, a relative time frame.
I’m sure you’ll disagree with some of my entries, and I’m sure I missed some of the best luggage (let me know in the comments section below).

Luggage Compartments
Different compartments and pockets allow you to separate liquids, toiletries and other items in your luggage. There is one thing you need to keep in mind.
Waterproof luggage
When I worked for Delta Air Lines, I once saw luggage rain on the tarmac before it was loaded onto the plane. I saw a piece of luggage in the belly of the plane get damaged, affecting the other luggage below.
The durability of your luggage
We’ve already talked about the behind-the-scenes details of loading luggage on a plane.
You don’t need to spend a fortune, but it is worth looking for a well-made suitcase that will stand the test of time.
The cost of luggage
If you want quality, sturdy luggage, you need to spend a lot of money. These days, whether it’s an appliance or a car, standards seem to be getting lower, even for the best models.
