Vancropak Travel Backpack, 40L Flight Approved Carry On Backpack for Men & Women, Expandable Large Luggage Backpack Daypack Water Resistant Lightweight Business Weekender Bag, Black

Most backpacks that I had before, either came with bunch of different size sections and pockets which made it impossible to find what I was looking, or fewer sections, but if the thing I was looking for was at the bottom, I had to unload everything to get to it. This backpack solved both these flaws. It is built more like luggage suitcase than backpack, but it sits comfortable when carried as backpack. It has couple of pockets, for things like chargers or liquids, section that would fit laptop or something like that, and the rest of it is one big space for everything else. I just got back from our European trip where we moved 7 times between different hotels and apartments, and packing/unpacking this backpack really took very little time. Also because it doesnt have all of those useless sections and fancy pockets, it is very spacious. There is option to expand it, but I didnt have the need to do that. Materials used, stitching and zippers appear durable enough. So far I dont see any wear and tear issues. If you are flying budget airlines, obviously it is bigger than they allow to carry on for free, but in my experience they rarely measure if what I am carrying is reasonably small, and this backpack is reasonably small looking. So far I flew 3 times on budget airlines and it was fine. My ONLY complaint, it doesnt have a pocket for water bottle.

Favorable reviews led to my purchase of this convertible soft backpack/suitcase. It impressed with sturdy zippers, useful zip compartments, the pretty cyan color, and expansion capability. I would buy again. Boyfriend & I used as joint carry on for “essentials” for 2 weeks in Europe, using packing cubes (bought separately) then checking one shared bag. I plan to use just this plus personal item next trip anywhere…. because airline did in fact lose our checked bag coming home.

Ive went to Mexico and walked around all morning waiting for my airbnb to be ready. Since then, Ive started a new job and use this to lug around tools. Doesnt show any signs of tearing or anything yet. Its comfy if you have it on correctly. Id recommend this over wheeling around luggage.

Okay so honestly the bag seems great. Easily fits a weekend worth of “ stuff.” Lots of well placed pockets and seems to be well made. I think what creeped me out a bit was when packing for our first trip using the bag…found someone else’s boarding pass. Obviously the bag had been used. Paid for new but got used.

This bag passes the size requirements for carry-on international travel. It is light and the backpack straps are very handy to free up your hands while traveling. You will need to travel lightly, but its worth not checking your baggage. Highly recommend.

Travel as overnight bag

as advertised

I ordered this backpack along with several others to do a boss-comparison. Thank goodness I did. I was reluctant to try this bag because it lacked features the others had, either a bottle holder or a USB charging port. All I can say it this bag was so much better in every way then the 5 other bags I tried, I can live without the bottle holder and charging port. The quality of this bag makes all the others look cheap. From the thickness of the fabric to the bulk of the zippers it’s head and shoulders above the rest. And all the extra pockets are a bonus. With all the extra room I can easily store a water bottle. It was stuffed and it still fit under my seat on United. I’ve only used it once so I can’t speak of its durability, but it definitely seems made to last.

Its a good weekend bag, I cant complain about its quality or design.

Yes, now I can pack enough for two weeks and until now, and after three trips, not a single issue in the airport and no need to pay for carry-on. Best buy ever!
