Overnight bag that fits in the CRJ-200

take it to a shoe shop that does zipper repair then.

Kirkland Signature bags from Costco fit if you don't overfill them.

This was true of all of the older models. The newest generation is simply too thick. It won't fit in a crj200 overhead. I tried, and then had to MEL a broken overhead bin. The bag didnt have much in it either.

My Luggage works crapped out after less than 3 years. Zipper tearing off where one of the corners are on the bag. Been like this for some time but slowly getting worse. Eventually will completely fail on day 1 of a 4 day I'm sure.

Also, the grab-handle constantly comes loose no matter how hard I screw it on. I just need something to use while I send it for repair because the repair takes weeks and then afterwards I will continue to use it as a spare.

The warranty is 3 years. Take it to Crew Outfitters, get a loaner bag, and they'll send in yours.

If the rollerbag isn't under warranty, they will not fix it for free.

Yes they will. If you really butter them up, i.e., how great their products are, compliment their customer service, "I'm in a financial pinch and I'd love to continue to use your products instead of buying a cheap Wal Mart bag", "send me a stack of your business cards and I'll distribute them at my airline". Anyway, it worked for me 5'ish years ago. And yes, at the time, everything I said to them happened to be true! Sometimes you have to set aside your pride and beg!

What bags fit in the CRJ-200 overheads other than the $400.00 luggage works bags and also other than any Travelpro junk?

Thx.

Damn, I left my butter knife at home the day I called. As frugal as I am, I just didn't see that angle. All I can say is well done airman. I'll give it a shot next time.

i thought pilots made lots of money though?

I was watching some reality cooking show on TV the other day. Some "young punk" was complaining about his job. He cleans up the kitchen. He was complaining because he can make "much more" than the crappy $900.00 paycheck he makes every two weeks doing something else.

My last paycheck (on reserve) was $950.00 after taxes and everything else was taken out. That guy makes almost as much as I do, and I work at an airline with an "industry leading" payscale. He cleans a kitchen. It's sad when we have to rely on per-diem to survive.
