Limited Edition Carry-on Suitcase Collaboration between British Airways and Globe-Trotter, inspired by the British Airways-Operated BOAC.
Take a journey into luxury with Globe-Trotter, a brand synonymous with extraordinary British design. Since 1897, they've been crafting handmade luggage and leather collections in the heart of Hertfordshire, England. The secret lies in their use of traditional manufacturing methods and machinery dating back to the Victorian era, all performed by skilled artisans.
Now, a unique opportunity arises as Globe-Trotter teams up with British Airways for the Limited Edition BOAC Carry-on Suitcase. What sets this collab apart? Well, only 150 units will be made, commemorating the retirement of the British Airways BOAC 747. Embracing the iconic BOAC livery of dark blue and white with the golden 'Speedbird' insignia, this beauty boasts a high-gloss vulcanised fibreboard exterior with a metallic sheen for a pearlescent white shimmer. Navy leather trims the corners and handles, while a hand-painted gold Speedbird adorns the exterior. A precious fragment from a British Airways Boeing 747 graces the interior lid, making each piece a priceless piece of aviation history.

British Airways and Globe-Trotter have a rich and enduring history, with roots tracing back to the 1960s when Globe-Trotter was a favorite brand for BOAC (British Overseas Airways Corporation) crew. Quality, style, and durability were the cornerstones of their partnership.
Other collaborative masterpieces include a collection inspired by BOAC air stewardess Hilary Farish, featuring a 1960s suitcase completely covered in stickers from her extensive travels. Hilary became known as the 'Queen of the Skies,' and the Boeing 747s epitomized the glamorous era of air travel in the '60s and '70s.
British Airways paid homage to the Boeing 747's original BOAC livery in 2019 for its 100th anniversary of UK airline operation, signifying the enduring bond between these two iconic British brands.
Over the years, Globe-Trotter has caught the eyes of esteemed figures such as Sir Winston Churchill, HM Queen Elizabeth II, and Daniel Craig, among others. Join the ranks of these travel icons and grab your Limited Edition BOAC Carry-on Suitcase today!
