Everything You Need to Know About Dual-Access Suitcases

Love the convenience of a front-opening suitcase that’s great for tight spaces, but also don’t want to give up the practicality of a traditional split-case design that lets you see everything at a glance? What if we told you that you can have the best of both worlds? 

Enter the dual-access luggage. Like the name suggests, it gives you two ways to open, combining both a top and middle opening for easy packing and organisation. Can’t imagine what it’s like? Keep reading to learn more about the anatomy of a dual-access luggage and the benefits of traveling with one, such as the new Verage Tenby Monti and Hush Puppies Frontenac DualEase.

One Case, Two Ways to Open

Top Opening

Featuring a top lid that opens independently, you can either lay it flat or keep it upright to access this compartment while the rest of the suitcase remains closed. Both the Verage Tenby Monti and Hush Puppies Frontenac DualEase have multiple zippered pockets in this slimmer portion, allowing you to neatly organise all your items.

Middle Opening

Resembling the traditional split-case design that most travellers are familiar with, this deeper main compartment opens evenly down the middle, giving you a full view of all your belongings. This is useful for faster packing and unpacking, especially for long-haul trips.

5 Benefits of Travelling With a Dual-Access Luggage

Your Essentials Are Always Within Reach 

Forget having to painfully dig through everything when the one thing you’re looking for is tucked right at the bottom of the suitcase. With the dual-access luggage, all you have to do is pack your frequently-used items — like your laptop, charger, toiletries, or an extra pair of shoes — in the front compartment and easily unzip that portion when needed.

It’s Perfect for Tight Spaces

When there’s not much room to move and lay your suitcase wide open, like in a tiny hotel or on the plane, taking out your items can be a hassle. That’s where Verage or Hush Puppies’ top opening comes in handy as you can easily grab what you need without having to fully open the luggage, thus saving you both space and effort.

It Helps You Stay Organised Throughout Your Trip

The middle opening makes packing and unpacking a breeze by giving you a complete view of everything inside. Better yet, you won't have to disturb your carefully packed belongings just to retrieve a single item, as the top opening provides quick access whenever you need it. 

What’s more, there’s multiple ways to organise your essentials. For example, you can keep the divider on to separate clean and worn clothes; or roll up the divider to gain extra overall space. And if that’s not enough, both these suitcases are expandable so you can instantly gain more room for last-minute souvenirs.

It Saves Time When You're On the Move

When you’re rushing through airport security or checking into your hotel, a dual-access suitcase like the Verage Tenby Monti and Hush Puppies Frontenac DualEase helps you move quickly on the go. You’ll spend less time digging through your suitcase (which means more time enjoying your actual holiday), while the silent double spinner wheels provide a smooth and comfortable journey all day.

One Suitcase for Every Type of Trip

Whether you opt for the Verage Tenby Monti or Hush Puppies Frontenac DualEase, having a dual-access suitcase means you no longer have to choose between a front or middle opening luggage. You’re able to enjoy both styles in one, and you’ll have one less decision to make for your travels, be it a business or leisure trip.
