NEW YORK and FORT WORTH, Texas — Get ready to travel in style with a new,
fashion-forward collaboration blending 100 years of American’s iconic brand
with a modern luggage design. Today, American and July are unveiling suitcases
featuring showstopping design motifs with premium technology designed to
enhance any kind of travel experience.
The collaboration is available for purchase today exclusively on July’s website and features two design options, each in
a Carry On and Checked Expandable luggage size:
- Astrojet™ Blue with cream leather piping featuring a red
fabric zipper
- Astrojet™ Red with heritage blue leather piping and

The collection features CaseSafe™ — July’s innovative integrated
trackable lock, which allows travelers to monitor their suitcase directly via
Apple’s Find My network or Google’s Find Hub. Aerospace-grade German
polycarbonate shells feature as standard, alongside a multistop telescopic
handle that allows for customizable adjustment across 20 heights and
SilentMove™ for the ultimate smooth experience.
Each design also complements the stunning exterior with a bespoke interior
combining American’s Astrojet™ colors with one of the
most-recognized symbols of American’s past: the classic Vignelli-designed
Silverbird™ logo.
“Travelers have made a deep connection with the American Airlines brand
over the past 100 years, and we continue to look for thoughtful ways to bring
that connection to life,” said American’s Managing Director of Global
Marketing Jacs Wyatt. “Working with July allowed us to transform beloved
heritage design elements into a premium collection that celebrates a century
of innovation, style and travel intertwined with modern travel
innovation.”
The newly released collection comes in two color options.
Both options feature a Carry On and Checked Expandable luggage size.
“American Airlines has been an icon of travel both in the United States
and around the world for a century — the kind of legacy that deserves to be
celebrated,” said July Co-founder Athan Didaskalou. “It’s been fun exploring
elements of nostalgia, iconography and innovation together. I think the
result is a beautiful celebration of the romance of travel.”
The July and American Airlines collection is available starting today while
supplies last, priced at $345 for the Carry On and $425 for the Checked
Expandable.
The designs reflect a century of flight with American blended
with modern travel features.
This is the latest licensed collection in American’s lineup of premium
lifestyle products. The American Airlines brand has been a crucial part of
inspiring travel with the magic of flight for a century. In response to strong
affinity for the brand, the airline has thoughtfully created — and will
continue to foster — collaborations that reflect the innovative history of the
carrier in a premium, forward-looking manner.
