Abstract: A portable cart for carrying luggage comprises a central section, a handle section detachably connected to a rear portion of the central section, two side sections pivotally connected to the central section respectively and having at least one wheel rotationally connected to a rear portion of the side section, and a device for holding the side sections horizontally so that the upper portions of the side section and the central section are substantially located on the same plane. When the holding device is released, the side sections can rotate relative to the central section so that the side sections are substantially oriented perpendicular to the central section and parallel to each other. The handle section is formed of a plurality of elongated rods telescopically connected to each other so that when the handle section is used, the rods are extended upwardly from the central section to orient in order from a rod having largest diameter to a rod having a smallest diameter.
