I used it for my first trip going on a flight. It handled 6 days of clothes, bathroom supplies, personal items, and enough space for cell phone. Easy to carry once I adjusted the straps.

My son-in-law loved it. Very roomy!

I’m really happy with this purchase. I was skeptical because it was so inexpensive, but it seems pretty durable thus far. I’ve taken it with me for 5 flights, 3 trains, and 4 hotels and it has held up. I am someone who packs TONS of stuff when I travel. I typically check a suitcase, but I was able to get by on a recent trip with just this bag and a small carry-on rolling suitcase, so I didn’t need to check any bags.I ordered 4 similarly-sized backpacks from Amazon and kept this one.Reasons I kept it:*Holds a ton*Main large section can be accessed from the top (helpful when you’re sitting in your seat on a plane), but can be opened all the way for easy access and packing. I have another large backpack that opens like a clamshell (similar to a hard-sided suitcase), and I find it hard to access items during a flight.*Padded quick access pocket for laptops and iPads - easier for TSA security access, gives support and structure, easier to carry on your back*Straps are fairly comfortable and has a chest strap for extra support*Trolley strap thing on the back to attack to your rolling suitcase - it’s amazing to me how many travel backpacks lack this feature!*Quick access security pocket on back of backpack - great place to store a passport or wallet for easy access while keeping it safe*Waterproof pouch - I didn’t think this was a feature I needed, but it ended up being useful on the first trip - was able to throw a wet bathing suit in there and get on a train. I think it would also be useful for someone who didn’t want to pack a separate waterproof toiletry pouch - you can just pack your liquids in the waterproof pouch and protect the rest of your belongings from any spills.*Exterior side pockets - again, I’m surprised at how many backpacks lack an exterior pocket for a water bottle. This one has two. I often use one pocket for my water bottle and the other pocket for a curling iron that is still warm (not hot enough to burn anything, but warm enough that I don’t want to pack the curling iron inside of my suitcase)*Comfortable padded top handle*Comfortable padded side handle*Compression straps on sides to make the bag a little smaller*Tons of internal pockets if you’re into that type of thing*The light gray interior makes it easy to see items inside of the back - not sure if this is on all of the colors or just the cream or lighter colors.A few drawbacks:*I got it in the cream color because it matched my AWAY rolling suitcase and I felt it was a little less boring and masculine than the black color. I like the color, but it does get a little dirty. I haven’t tried to clean it. I expected this with a cream backpack, but don’t get cream if this will bother you.*The compression straps are slightly annoying at times because they flap around if they’re not buckled and I don’t want to always be buckling and unbuckling the straps. This is a minor inconvenience, however, and I appreciate the compression functionality when needed.*I almost think there are TOO many internal organizational pockets, but I just don’t use a bunch of them and it’s fine. Probably better to have more pockets than fewer pockets! I think if you’re someone who just travels with a backpack and uses the pockets for toiletries and stuff, then they might be useful - but I tend to travel with a separate toiletry bag and don’t need all the extra pockets for things.

Backpack has three large compartments, comes with two makeup cases, is worth the cost. It's very functional with all of the pockets.

Purchased for a 3 week European trip as primary bag for my travel partner. She liked it. Held up well and additional organizers were handy, but could be just slightly larger.

I bought this backpack for work, and my favorite thing about it is that it has a compartment dedicated to packing cubes so that you can put in shoes and a change of outfit. I do like that. It also has little plastic lined pockets to put some toiletries in, so if anything spills or explodes, it’s easy to clean. However, the canvas material makes it hard to keep the backpack clean. I wish it were shiny or vinyl so I could wipe it down. It can get heavy very fast because it has so many compartments for you to hide and organize so it gets weighed. It is a Great backpack and would be a good dance or gym bag.

This backpack bag is the ultimate in carry-ons. It has endless compartments and holds everything you need for a short trip. It fits under the plane seat so no worries in having to check the bag in. Just love it!
