Notes from our data check
Spec block: "Exterior measurements 22" x 14.4" x 9.1" ... Measurements include handles and wheels"; UK page: 55.9 x 36.6 x 23.1 cm, 3.4 kg. Interior 20.1 x 13.9 x 7.5 in. CONFLICT: the same US page's FAQ and the Amazon listing give 21.7 x 14.4 x 9 in; the page meta description gives 7.1 lb / 39.8 L against the spec block's 7.5 lb / 41 L. The FAQ calls it the "international-compliant size", but 55.9 x 36.6 x 23.1 cm is over 55 cm tall and over 20 cm deep. Width 14.4 in is over the 14 in US-major limit. Not expandable. Amazon: $275, in stock, listing shares a parent rank of #8 in Carry-On Luggage.
