Travelite Air Base is a hard-shell suitcase made of polypropylene, positioned in the brand’s mid-range segment. The shell is lightweight and impact-resistant, suitable both for cabin luggage (size S) and check-in baggage (sizes M and L). The series is designed for frequent air travel.
In real trips, the Travelite Air Base suitcase offers a balanced solution for airports and transfers. The polypropylene shell absorbs shocks during baggage handling and is less prone to cracking compared to more rigid plastics. Four double wheels ensure stability and smooth rolling on tiles and airport terminals, reducing effort while moving. The recessed TSA lock allows security checks without damaging the case. In size M, an expandable version is available, providing extra capacity when returning with additional items.
Travelite was founded in Germany in 1949 and has specialized in luggage for over 70 years. The choice of polypropylene in the Air Base series is practical: it combines low weight with structural durability, which is essential when checking in luggage. The brand provides a 2–3 year warranty depending on the model.
Within the Travelite range, Air Base differs from Crosslite and Skaii. These collections are made of recycled polyester and feature soft construction: they adapt better to overpacking but offer less impact protection. In contrast, Air Base provides a rigid shell for better protection of belongings. Compared to the aluminum Next series, Air Base is lighter and more practical for frequent flights, though not designed for extreme loads like a metal case.
