Our Verdict on the American Tourister Bon Air

This is one of the highest buyer rated hard shell suitcases that is currently available on the UK market. Buyers clearly like it and the number of complaints about this case is very low.

Price wise it is at the higher end, but you will know as well as me, that with most products you do get what you pay for.

This is a good choice for anyone wanting a hard shell case for going on a summer break for a couple of weeks.

Check Amazon UK for Availability

We know from our extensive research that this brand of suitcases has been around for quite a while. The hard shell style of suitcase is a great idea, for anyone wanting to make sure the contents of their case is secure and well protected.

With reference to the Bon Air from the American Tourister brand, there is a lot to like about this case. It is well made, certainly looks the part, has a large capacity and the good quality lock does keep your valuables secure.

Buyers say they like the wheels as they glide easily. Like any case, baggage handlers can mistreat this one. No doubt it will end up getting scratched like many others I have seen on the luggage belt.

For now though buyers rate this highly, and we have no hesitation in recommending this one to you.
