similar as/like

Hi.

"There was a suitcase like mine on the luggage rack."

"There was a suitcase similar as mine on the luggage rack."

The second sentence is not correct - could you tell me, when I can use "similar as"?

Thank you.

You should always use similar TO not as, when you are making a comparison in this way. There was a suitcase similar to mine on the luggage rack.
