The maximum combined weight for check-in baggage* is now 44 pounds. Didn't it used to be 2 pieces maximum at 50 pounds each?!? We haven't landed in Mexico or Manila, and I'm already fanning myself to calm down this mild panic attack. Still in shock, we scrambled to redeem our Air Miles for some snazzy luggage. I've been a
Heys fan for 5 years now and find their luggage conveniently lightweight, easy to maneuver, and durable. The older models I own only have scruff marks from wear and tear. Hopefully, we won't luck out and have an ACME anvil drop - sharp edge down on these frameless beauties.

Bunky picks out his luggage since he's traveling with me(L to R: 30"-11 lbs., 26"- 9.2 lbs., 21.5"-7lbs.) |
I'm freaking out about the baggage weight allowance because parents haul serious turtle shells when going anywhere with a toddler. It's hilarious how the hubs and I are currently calculating how much formula and diapers we can bring for our upcoming trips.

The hubs will roll with Heys Hummer Spinner Set |
Lightweight luggage can carry more shoes, bags, and makeup. There. Now I can breathe.
