American Tourister Bon Air Spinner 66 medium hardside case review

A lighter, simpler medium case in the same Bon Air family as the cabin size — a lower price than Samsonite's own S'Cure at a very similar footprint.

The Bon Air’s medium size follows the same pattern as its cabin-size sibling: a genuinely lower price and lighter empty weight than Samsonite’s own S’Cure, achieved with a thinner shell and a slightly smaller quoted capacity at a comparable external footprint.

For a case that flies a handful of times a year, that trade is a reasonable one. For anyone checking luggage on most trips, the S’Cure’s thicker shell and larger capacity at a similar size tend to justify the higher price over several years of ownership.

What it does well, and where it fails

Strengths

  • Lighter empty weight than the equivalent Samsonite S'Cure size
  • 57.5 L capacity suits a shorter checked trip without overpacking
  • Bright color range makes the case easy to identify on a carousel

Compromises

  • Thinner shell than the S'Cure, with less resistance to a hard corner impact
  • Smaller capacity than the S'Cure 69 at a similar external size

Who buys this one, among luggage

A budget-conscious medium case for travelers who do not check luggage often enough to justify the pricier S'Cure.
