When it comes to carry-on bags (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=smartertravel/packing-hacks-the-best-ca_b_6436956.html), expert travelers know the average duffel simply will not do (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=2015/03/12/travel-suits-duffel-garment-bag-combatant-gentleman_n_6850414.html). With airlines periodically cracking down on carry-on requirements (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=2014/03/05/united-carry-on-bag-limit_n_4903178.html) and passengers shaming others (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=2014/06/11/carryonshame_n_5484182.html) for exceeding the bag size limit, it's crucial to maximize every inch of suitcase space (because c'mon, we cannot travel without the Napwrap (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=2014/07/10/napwrap_n_5563534.html)).
And man, have we found our carry-on suitcase ideal.
The crowd-funded Jurni (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/jurni-the-ultimate-sit-on-carry-on-suitcase#/story) is a multi-component piece of brilliance designed with shelving, door storage and a removable to-go pod for valuables. (Oh, and you can sit on it/ride it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2leMmmObr4).) A look inside reveals the suitcase's "cabinet mode," which makes it essentially a locker on wheels:

The Jurni is marketed "for young travelers," but we think it could work for just about anyone. The pop-off top compartment was designed to store stuff like iPads, phones and wallets. You can remove it when you put your suitcase in an overhead bin (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=map-happy/stop-fighting-for-overhea_b_7261764.html), bringing the essentials down to your plane seat with you (or to a coffeeshop, for that matter):

The best part of the Jurni suitcase? YOU CAN RIDE IT. Take that, security line (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=news/airport-security/).

You can order the Jurni suitcase on Indiegogo (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/jurni-the-ultimate-sit-on-carry-on-suitcase#/story) for $99, yet quantities of the initial batch are limited. The first Jurnis will ship in February 2016.
We'll keep lugging our carry-ons around until then.
