I had the Luggage Works 22”, and loved it for the most part. Replaced it with a Travel Pro 22” Expandable and it offers a bit more room and is noticeably lighter. The LW is 5 lbs heavier but will probably last longer since it’s got all that protective metal around the edges. As for a headset, these are freighters with significant amount of noise, get one, your ears and grandkids will thank you.
