Is the Delsey Cruise 3.0 Trunk 26" a carry-on?

No. At roughly 29 inches tall it is a checked bag, not a carry-on. Check your airline's checked size and weight limits before flying.

How much does it weigh empty, and how much can it hold?

It weighs 9.5 lbs empty and holds 121 L. The 48.5 lb packed weight is a maximum alert, not a hard limit, so weigh it before checking it.

Does it have a TSA lock?

Yes. It has a built-in TSA-accepted lock on the zipper, so security can open it without cutting the bag.

What is the difference between the trunk and the standard Cruise 3.0?

The trunk has a taller, narrower shape with a 20/80 split that opens flat, which suits packing in layers. The standard spinner is wider and shallower with a more conventional clamshell.

Is $153.59 a good price?

It is the best new price among 13 stores as of November 8, 2026, and sits at the low end of its recent range. Waiting is unlikely to save much unless a seasonal sale hits.

The suitcase itself, with its TSA lock and telescoping handle already fitted. A dust bag or luggage tag is not guaranteed, so check the listing before buying.
