Product Details
Meet the AVIO Foldable Carry-On Luggage. The first hard-shell suitcase designed to expand when you need space and fold down flat when you do not. Built for the modern traveler, it combines an ultra-durable polymer PC shell with our signature structural engineering to deliver massive packing capacity without the bulk.
Space When You Need It. Zero Bulk When You Do Not.
The AVIO Foldable Carry-On expands to full size for packing and folds down compactly to reduce its body size by up to 66% for effortless storage. Slide it under your bed, tuck it inside a closet, or slip it under the sofa.
Ultra-Lightweight, Maximum Strength
Our AVIO-engineered lightweight frame cuts the luggage weight nearly in half. Paired with A-Shield Hard-Shell Protection, the high-molecular PC panel and reinforced corners safeguard your belongings from impact, pressure, and drops.
Effortless Mobility
Navigate any terrain with AVIOSmooth 360° Spinner Wheels. Featuring a steel bearing axle and wider wheel profile, these whisper-quiet wheels glide seamlessly across carpet, concrete, cobblestone, and uneven surfaces. The aviation-grade aluminum trolley handle offers a smooth, 4-level adjustable grip for heavy use.
Smarter Packing
Experience a seemingly bottomless interior. The deep 80% lower compartment design maximizes space utilization, while segmented organized storage keeps everything in its place.
TSA Carry-On Friendly
Meets international and domestic cabin-size standards, fitting perfectly in overhead bins.
Dimensions:
Before Expansion: 21.7" x 14.6" x 5.9"
After Expansion: 21.7" x 14.6" x 9.8"
Backed by the AVIO Lifetime Luggage Warranty. Travel with confidence.

Frame/Structure: AVIO-engineered lightweight frame reduces overall weight by 50% without compromising structural integrity.
Handle Material (Aviation-Grade Aluminum): Provides a smooth, strong, and durable telescopic grip designed to withstand heavy, repeated use.
Wheels (Steel Bearing Axle): Ensures whisper-quiet, multi-directional 360° movement across all terrains, from smooth airport floors to rough cobblestone.
Nylon (UltiTough Performance Nylon): Water-resistant, oil-resistant, tear-resistant, and impact-resistant. Engineered to be up to 5x the international tear-resistance standard. Made from recycled eco-friendly material.

Lock (TSA Rotary): Built-in premium anti-theft rotary lock with an impact-resistant mechanism. Travel Sentry TSA Accepted to prevent accidental or forced opening.
Care
Cleaning the Shell: Wipe down with a damp cloth for everyday dust and dirt. For tougher marks, use mild soap or alcohol wipes. Let it dry fully before storing.
Cleaning the Interior: Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure the interior is completely dry before closing to prevent odors or mildew.
Wheel Maintenance: Wipe wheels with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber or steel bearings.
Handle Care: Wipe the aluminum handle with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Ensure it is free of grit to maintain smooth telescopic action.
Zipper Care: Keep zippers free of dust and debris. If needed, use a soft brush to clean the teeth. Do not force the zipper if caught on fabric.
Storage Instructions: Empty the suitcase, compress it to its folded size (reducing volume by up to 66%), and store it in a dry place such as under a bed, inside a closet, or on a cabinet.
TSA Lock Care: Keep the rotary dial clean and free of debris. Do not force the mechanism.
FAQ
Can a 20-inch suitcase be brought onboard as a carry-on?
Yes. Most major U.S. airlines accept our 20-inch suitcase as a carry-on. It measures approximately 21.5 x 14 x 9" when expanded. Always verify with your specific airline before flying.
Why does the trolley handle wobble? Is that a defect?
No, a slight wobble is entirely normal. The telescopic handle requires engineered clearance for smooth sliding, friction reduction, and shock absorption. This design improves durability and prevents bending or jamming.
How do I clean the luggage?
Use a damp cloth for everyday cleaning. For tougher marks, use mild soap or alcohol wipes. Avoid abrasive cleaners, and always let the luggage dry fully before storing.
How does the foldable design work? Is it sturdy when expanded?
The AVIO Foldable Carry-On features an expandable case structure that easily pops up to full size for packing and compresses down flat for storage. When expanded, the A-Shield Hard-Shell Protection and reinforced corners provide high load-bearing strength and impact resistance, ensuring it is incredibly sturdy.
What is the weight of the suitcase?
Our AVIO-engineered lightweight frame and 50% weight-reduced shell structure cut the luggage weight nearly in half compared to traditional hard-shell suitcases, making it exceptionally lightweight and easy to maneuver.
Does it fit in overhead bins on all airlines?
It is designed to be TSA Carry-On friendly and meets standard international and domestic cabin-size requirements. However, overhead bin sizes vary by aircraft, so we recommend checking your airline's specific dimensions.
How does the TSA lock work?
The built-in rotary TSA lock is a premium anti-theft feature with an impact-resistant mechanism. It prevents accidental or forced opening while remaining Travel Sentry TSA Accepted, allowing security agents to inspect your bag without damaging the lock.
What does the warranty cover?
The AVIO Lifetime Luggage Warranty includes 1 Year of Free Repair and 5 Years of Unlimited Coverage starting from the delivery date. Year 1 covers any functional damage with free repair and free return shipping. Years 1-5 cover component damage (wheels, handles, zippers) and structural damage (dents, cracks) with free repair and no part fees; you only pay return shipping. It does not cover normal wear and tear, cosmetic scratches, or improper use.
Can I check this bag instead of carrying it on?
Absolutely. While designed as a carry-on, the ultra-durable high-molecular PC shell, reinforced corners, and impact-resistant UltiTough Performance Nylon make it strong enough to withstand the rigors of checked baggage handling.
How much can it hold? What is the packing capacity?
The AVIO Carry-On features a massive packing capacity. The deep 80% lower compartment design offers higher space utilization than standard suitcases, functioning like a "bottomless" interior with segmented storage for ultimate organization.
Is the shell scratch-proof?
The high-molecular PC shell is highly scratch-resistant and designed to stay looking new even after heavy use. However, like all travel gear, it may show minor signs of normal wear and tear over time.
