Anybody use the new strongbag helix roller board? Was curious how it stood up to airline abuse. It seems a cool innovation but wasn’t sure if a bit gimmicky.

I use a shopping cart. Got it for free and it holds all my stuff.

I think I ran into you outside the hotel in Jacksonville last week! Small world…

It really helps you blend in on those SEA, PDX and LAX layovers.

I see you are using a clear bag for your "Foo-foo" products.

Or go cheaper and just replace every few years.

I used to use Travelpro. I got tired of them breaking mid-trip and decided to just go with the LW. I've never regretted it even though it's a heavy bag. The way I see it, it's designed to be a work bag, and it holds up well to the demand that we put on it.

Fair point, I had an LW die on me while abroad. Managed to limp it home. This was the heavy bulky metal one. Since replaced with a plastic one with no regrets.

Sorry, this is a pilots’ forum. Go find your own flight attendant forum! 😂

there is nothing worse than being that guy schlepping through the airport with a limp wheeled bag.

I once had a flight bag fall apart while wheeling through the airport. That’s awkward when your Jepps and manuals are falling out of your bag like Hansel and Gretel
