Absolutely. The basic riding and motor-assisted pulling functions work straight from the handlebar controls once the battery is inserted. You only need the app for extra adjustments like precise speed tuning or checking Find My location.
You remove the battery and carry it in your personal item or carry-on bag through security. The suitcase itself can be used as a normal carry-on if it meets size limits. Since the battery is under 100Wh and removable, most airlines allow it, but always confirm with your carrier beforehand.
You simply switch to manual mode. The suitcase still rolls smoothly on its wheels like a regular premium spinner, so you can push or pull it the old-fashioned way until you find an outlet. A full recharge takes about 2 hours.
The Airwheel electric smart suitcase doesn’t try to be a scooter killer. Instead, it merges the convenience of last-mile electric mobility with the one thing you always have at an airport—your luggage. If you often find yourself exhausted before a trip even begins, it might be worth a closer look.
