Kono Travel Backpack Airline Approved Under Seat Personal Item Bag

I bought this to use as my "personal item" for an airline trip, which gives you an idea of its size. It fit nicely under the seat and held A LOT of stuff. I also used it like a purse while I was traveling and sightseeing - it's 3 zipper compartments made it easy to store my packable raincoat and hoodie but also to find my attraction tickets and hair ties etc... I also bought it because the description said it was waterproof, but I never had to put it to the test so I can't comment on that feature. The side straps allow you to compress it if you only have a few things, and expand to hold a lot more. It held up great through a 2 week trip with all day daily use. Very pleased with this purchase!

This is a solid little backpack for a remarkably low price. Seems to be well-made (time will tell, after a few trips). Size seems perfect for under seat stowage, even on smaller regional jets. The only two things on my wish list would be a pouch on the outside to hold a water bottle and one zippered interior compartment. Otherwise, it's everything I was looking for in a small travel bag.

Matches the luggage set, has a strap for easy transport thru airports connected to your luggage- but no zipper locks (luggage yes backpack no) - if I was going on an international trip, I would be using my Swiss army backpack, that has zipper locks, more room, and more protective pockets.

I was very careful to purchase the right size personal item bag for my once in a lifetime vacation flight. It was great for that purpose. I was able to pack ALL my toiletry items along with my laptop computer, charging cords, and a couple of books in this bag and it still fit under the United Airlines seat. But it was heavy! While on vacation, I used it as a purse. It worked so well for that purpose, that I kept it. Great value. Great storage capacity! Plus, many pockets for items normally carried in a purse: Ziploc bag for odds and ends (lip balm, feminine hygiene, asthma inhaler, dental floss, etc), wallet, phone, checkbooks, water bottle, sunglasses, keys. And because it's tall and narrow, and straps control its depth, I can easily access all these items in an upright position and put them back where they belong when I'm finished using them. Plus there's room to stow an extra sweater and hat without it bulking up out of control. Plus it's 1/5 the cost of the last purse I bought! Thank you, Kono! I'm not sure why it's rated for security features. It's just a backpack with a zipper. There is no lock. So I'm just reading it a three for that, but I don't consider that a flaw at all.

good size and room for flight requirements

My son & I each had one of these that we used on our flights between Madrid & Dublin. The bags were great & we had no issues taking them on Ryanair. They held a lot while meeting the European "small bag" standard. I packed each bag with a pair of sandals, two 14x9 inch compression packing cubes, and a small toiletries bag. (Compression bags held all our socks, underwear, shirts, PJs, pants, & raincoats. We wore our boots, sweaters, & jeans on the plane to save room.) With all that, there was still additional room in the main compartment to include a few loose items like extra socks or charging bricks. I put our passports in the front (diagonal) pocket & snacks/phones/wallet in the middle pocket. Since the two main pockets open 180 degrees, it was really easy to access what we needed at any time. We were able to make it two weeks out of these bags with one laundry stop in the middle. The zippers didn't seem super sturdy so I was careful with them, but ultimately nothing broke & the bags served us very well. I would recommend them.

FANTASTIC bag. it is SOOOO perfect for the tight rules for international personal item. measured EXACTLY as stated. and BONUS- my teen sone realized it is PERFECT for his soccer ball and cleats to take to practice. simply amazing product after ordering like 10 different bags to find one that would work for EUROPE. I am thrilled. picky teen ALSO liked hte sleek black design and understated logo.

Absolutely loved this bag for a work/laptop bag. Perfect size for travel. However didn't last two months until stitching came loose.

Util para viajar

Ik heb het nog niet kunnen gebruiken want ik heb het gekocht na mijn laatste vlucht, het ziet er wel degelijk en goed afgewerkt uit.

Tiene más capacidad de lo que aparenta por su tamaño y, estéticamente, es más bonita de lo que esperaba.

Yo la uso como única maleta asique lo meto todo ahí, le faltaría algún departamento más para separar cosas, preo lo que más me fastidió es que se descosió ya un poco la cremallera del bolsillo delantero y la tela es demasiado fina, no aparenta mucha resistencia.

Muy conveniente para viajar en avión. Hice varias escalas como en 6 aereopuertos y en ninguno tuve problema para llevarla como artículo personal junto con mi maleta carry on. Además es cómoda y se ve bien 👍.
