Recs on luggage? My wife's luggage is WAY past its prime so she was looking for a carry-on sized bag, and my carry-on sized bag finally gave up the ghost after more than a decade with a catastrophic wheel failure...

Looking for carry-on + one larger bag, so maybe a 2 pc set plus an individual. If you know of good places to buy it (i.e. we have some outlets, I think Samsonite & Tumi, within driving distance), also helpful.

We've always been soft-side luggage folks, but if anyone has an argument to sway us to a hard case style, I'm listening.

Deadline is that we need it before May 20, because that's the next trip when we leave for Kauai. I just threw all the existing stuff in the trash to make that a VERY hard deadline lol...

Amazon.com | Amazon Basics suitcases 30 Inch Softside Spinner, Black | Suitcases

Very light weight, which is key when you are limited to 40/50 pounds max.

I bought this in 2018. It has been on a lot of trips and handles cobblestone streets just fine.

This weighs less than my Samsonite carryon.

1&3 Restaurant at Yacht Haven Grande in east Charlotte Amalie.    Quality place.

That was the only time we spent anywhere near Charlotte Amalie.  We stayed out at the Ritz on the east end of the island.   

I think St John's has two of the nicest beaches I've ever seen.
We've walked by that place a few times. Never went in.

This one is great.

We looked at both types when the doors were open, they really are tight, and the "ocean view" types are hardly better in my "view" on NCL ships.  They have a fairly small window over the bed.  They are the same size otherwise.  When you go to "balcony", you get a small sitting area with sofa bed and desk and larger BR.  They are close to twice the size.
We always get a balcony, Love to get up in the morning, go out on the balcony and relax watching the ocean.

I've been told Alaska cruise is outstanding and a must do
I've been told it sucks
Wife went on one with her late husband and loved it, so we are doing it in July.

On a crossing, the weather can tend to be cold. We didn't use our balcony much on the last one we did, until we got closer to home.

Our last cruise we had a balcony and it was great, but it was also all through the Caribbean so the weather was fantastic.

Yep, definitely need a balcony for a cruise like that.

Even in the cold. A nice warm robe and something hot to drink.  One of the few times I don't mind the cold too much
