Flightex Routes is Tulala's compact pack-rod sub-brand, six models folding to 47-55cm for carry-on travel. The lineup covers Ultra Light spinning (S56UL, 5'6", ~7g), Medium Light spinning (S68ML, 6'8", 3-21g), Ultra Light casting (C60UL, 6'0", ~11g), Medium Heavy casting (C69MH, 6'9", 10-56g), Medium casting (C60M, 6'0", 8-35g, 4-piece), and Medium spinning (S77M, 7'7", 8-45g). Prices are ¥34,800-¥42,800.
Most Routes models fold to approximately 51-55cm, fitting in a carry-on bag. The S77M folds to 51cm despite being 7'7", achieved through multi-section construction with a short butt section. Line ratings from PE#0.6 to PE#5 allow the series to cover freshwater bass, light coastal, and medium shore applications from the same travel bag.
The Routes is one of two pack-rod families in the Tulala ecosystem (alongside the longer-folded Portamento). The Groovy and Jazil series under Flightex offer fixed-action rods in the same price tier without the emphasis on pack dimensions.
