Deuter Helion 60 Wheeled Travel Pack

G'day Linda,

The Deuter Helion series is designed as a Travel Pack, so will withstand the rigours of travel.  When travelling by plane, make sure to tuck all you loos straps, etc in like you would with any kind of luggage, and you should be fine!

G'day Cindy, 

You're very welcome, that's what I'm here for! As for which size would best suit, because of your height you could very well get away with the Helion 80, but just keep in mind that if you get a larger pack you're likely to fill it up to the brim and so it might get a little too heavy. 

Both the 60 and the 80 aren't designed to be carried on your back for long periods of time, so the 80 would probably be fine if you were mostly going to carry it by wheeling it on the ground. 

G’day Cindy,

I apologise about the mix up with the weight, I’ve just checked with the supplier and the Deuter Helion 60 Wheeled Travel Pack weighs 3.4kgs when it’s empty. I've fixed the specs up now so it should read correctly on the product page. 

G'day Martin, 

I've just checked this for you, and Deuter only make the Helion 60 Wheeled Travel Pack in the one colour which is black and blue. 

G'day Monica,

The Helion 60 from Deuter is the smaller size from Deuter's wheeled travel pack range, and from examining it in store it should definitley be suitable for your 5"3 height. 

Unfortunately due to the size of the buckles on the front of this pack, they are not compatible with the smaller day packs in Deuter's range. You may be able to purchase a seperate strap which will enable you to clip the wheeled pack and day pack together but that won't be the sturdiest option. 

Deuter do some excellent day packs like the Giga or the Futura, but you may want to consider a wheeled pack that comes with a detacheable day pack like the Black Wolf Grand Tour, which is a good size for a more petite frame.
