How good quality is Swiss gear luggage?
Swiss Gear doesn't actually make their luggage. They contract it out to different manufacturers to make it for them on their behalf (most brands do this actually).
I've had a couple Swiss products (other than their amazing pocket knife) and the quality differs by a lot depending on where, when, and what you got.
If you like Swiss and want quality, might I suggest Victorinox luggage?
Previous Answer:
its heavy , and not really practical for traveler, its only has a brand doesnt mean its good, swiss gear is specialist for knife not luggage

What are the dimensions for airline carry on luggage?
45 inches max total, when you add the length, plus width, plus height. It is possible for some bags to be under this 45 inch rule, but still not fit. There is a baggage sizer (metal framed thing) at the airport usually, that you can drop the bag into, to see if it will fit in the cabin's overhead bin, or under seat area. The longest length cannot be more than 24 inches, then 14, and 9 for the smallest (I think). There is no weight limit .. but remember ... YOU have to carry it around all day.
