Sizes can vary slightly from one brand to another, so you'd need to check before buying, but you can usually fit 4 or 5 of them (on their side), right at the back. Not only does that make loading the boot a lot easier but it gives better weight distribution, putting the weight forward of the rear wheels.
Having smaller cases also seems to make us both more selective, packing less overall. We have 5 of the cabin case, should we need them, but it becomes a challenge to use as few of them as possible.  |
. . . and its like Thunderbird 2 with various "pods" of clothing you can extract to suit the occasion. . .
