Travelpro is an American luggage brand founded in 1987 by Bob Plath, a Northwest Airlines 747 pilot who revolutionized the travel industry by inventing the original Rollaboard wheeled carry-on suitcase. Frustrated with lugging heavy bags through airports, Plath attached wheels and a retractable handle to a suitcase, creating a design that would transform how the world travels. The brand quickly became the luggage of choice for airline crews and frequent flyers, earning the tagline 'Built for the way you travel.' Travelpro's flagship Platinum Elite and Maxlite collections are engineered for durability, lightweight performance, and organizational efficiency. The brand remains deeply connected to the airline industry, with its products tested and endorsed by flight crews, earning the designation 'the choice of flight crews worldwide.' Travelpro luggage features innovations like the PowerScope telescoping handle, precision glide spinner wheels, and durable ballistic nylon fabrics. The company offers a comprehensive range of carry-ons, checked bags, garment bags, and travel accessories at competitive price points. Based in Boca Raton, Florida, Travelpro continues to innovate in luggage design while maintaining the practical, crew-tested ethos that has defined the brand for over three decades.
