Aer, the brand synonymous with minimalist travel solutions, has unveiled its latest product: the new Carry-On. This streamlined suitcase is tailored for travelers seeking a smaller, more portable option while retaining the hallmark features and quality that Aer is known for.
The original Carry-On, now rebranded as the Carry-On Max, has been a favorite for its premium design and functionality. With the introduction of the new Carry-On, Aer expands its offerings to cater to short trips and airlines with stricter size requirements.
Perfectly Sized for Every Journey
The new Carry-On is a compact solution with a 41-liter capacity and dimensions of 21.7″ x 14″ x 9″. Weighing just 8.2 pounds, it’s designed to fit snugly in tight overhead compartments and is ideal for weekend getaways.

For those needing extra packing space, the Carry-On Max provides a 48-liter capacity and measures 22.7″ x 15″ x 9″. Both sizes meet most airline carry-on regulations, making them versatile options for frequent travelers.
Premium Features for a Seamless Experience
Aer has packed the new Carry-On with the same innovative features that made the Carry-On Max a standout. Here’s what travelers can expect:
- Durable Construction: Makrolon polycarbonate hard shell for exceptional resilience against wear and tear.
- Smooth Mobility: Hinomoto Miraclent metal bearing wheels ensure an ultra-quiet, smooth glide.
- Ergonomic Handling: A patent-pending triangular trolley system with four adjustable height settings.
- Stationary Stability: Hinomoto wheel brake system keeps the suitcase in place, even on inclines.
- Organized Interiors: Includes a removable compression pad with Fidlock magnetic fastener, hidden smart tracker pocket, and sustainable CORDURA re/cor recycled nylon lining.
Modern Style with Bold Colorways
The Carry-On comes in four contemporary colors: Black, Dark Olive, Fog White, and Safety Orange. Its minimalist design and premium materials appeal to travelers who value aesthetics and functionality in equal measure.

Pricing and Availability
The new Carry-On is priced at $299 and will be available starting January 13 through Aer’s website, Aer retail stores in San Francisco, New York City, and London, as well as select global retail partners.
For longer trips, the Carry-On Max remains a go-to choice at $319, offering additional space with the same thoughtful features. Together, the two suitcases provide a comprehensive travel solution for modern travelers.
