Creatives/Resourcefuls please come in
I am trying to find a favor box that looks like a suitcase. I want it to be a plain, brown, cardboard type but it could be another solid color depending on how desperate I get. I'm trying to do web searches and am coming up empty. PLus, I want them to be on the larger side and not the little dainty ones that you see at bridal showers. Any other ideas on where I could find this?

What about something like this....

You could decorate them with labels and "luggage tags."
Not excatlly what you were looking for, but the only thing I could come up with is wedding favor boxes.
Ok, these small, but very cute. The cuteness makes up for the size. You could fill them with M&M

Have you searched papermart.com? I have used them for various projects/events and have been happy with them. They have a huge assortment of boxes. Here are a couple that might work:
Tab lock tuck top box You would have to add a handle to this style but that could be nothing more than punching a couple holes and tying up some cord. I know I have seen these boxes that also have a built in handle that just has to be bent back. I can't seem to find it though.

Looks like she used paper gift bags and decorated them to look like suitcases here? Super cute!
Thanks everyone for the ideas. I just went with brown "craft" bags from with handles from Hobby Lobby and am going to put a couple strips of black tape on each side to simulate a vintage suitcase. And then a sticker saying "Thanks for flying with PeteAir" or something to that effect.
