Q: Is this a personal item for spirit or frontier airlines?
submitted by Traveler101 - 3 years ago
A: I ordered the 45L and it is way too large to be considered a personal item. It is definitely the size of a standard carry-on. It looks too big to be comfortably carried on my back. I am returning it.
submitted byMolly - 2 years agoA: This is the same as a purse for woman/man. If you are a female and you are carrying this you cannot carry a purse as well keep that in mind
submitted byZara - 3 years agoA: per Frontier measurement regulations this will pass IF it is not overstuffed.

Q: Can I put ice packs in it to keep food cold?
submitted by player - 6 months ago
A: Hello player - Thank you for your Question about 45L Travel Backpack. The PEVA pocket is designed for storing damp items, and also helps separate dirty or soiled items from clean garments. However, we do not recommend placing ice packs in the PEVA pocket to keep food cold, as its insulation performance is limited. Additionally, when the ice pack melts, water may easily leak out since the PEVA pocket is not heat-welded. I hope this helps - Sam

The Perfect Carryon
this could be the pefect This backpack would be the perfect carryon had it not been for low-quality craftsmanship. I love the amount of pockets, the large volume capacity and overall functionality. There are pockets for clothing, shoes, wet, personal, and computer items, etc. After 3 trips, this bag is starting to tatter and I am going to return it. If it were the Jansport brand, it would be amazing. I still have my Jansport from 1992, not 1 rip, tear or defect.

Travel with ease
I used this on a European trip that included a variety of transportation methods and road conditions—everything from cobblestone streets to crushed rock paths. It worked like a charm! The multiple compartments made it easy to stay organized throughout the journey. Grab it while on sale for an extra bonus!!

Love this Bag
I absolutely love this bag and it’s always my go-to while traveling, I use the gray one for my international travel and my green one for my domestic travel. It has so much space and so many zippers. It has never failed me. Only thing I wish it had was a water bottle holder! But overall love this bag.

Loved it
I love the Open Story Travel Backpack — but I wish you offered a version with both sides that open fully like a suitcase for better packing and organization.”

Not good for Checked Luggage
I love this bag for weekend trips where I am the only one handling the bag, and it even worked for a carryon in the overhead storage bin of a plane. Only dissatisfaction is that when my plane was overbooked and the overhead storage was full, this bag was checked and returned to me with a small tear in the seam. This was only its first time getting checked, so I expected it to perform better. If you think this may end up getting checked, or handled not so gently, I would not purchase. If it had not been so long between buying this and actually bringing it on a plane, I would return it. I have beat up cheaper bags and they still have no damage unlike this one which ripped after one manhandling. I like the layout of the bag, just wish it held up better

Skip, this bag
This backpack works well for a trip lasting one to two days, but its quality is lacking. You might like the price now, but trust me, you'll wish you had thought twice.

Ripped twice
I would not suggest this bag. I used it for carrying a couple notebooks and a Chromebook and it ripped twice. The first time the strap tore off the second time the back of the main pocket tore. I got a replacement after the strap tore thinking it was a fluke.

Fantastic bag for travel
This bag holds a surprising amount of stuff and has compartments everywhere you need one. I bought one several years ago and used it so often as a carry-on that when one of the strap rings broke I immediately bought another. My current one has been with me through a dozen trips a year within the US and a ten-day trip to Europe as my only luggage. For a $50 bag it's incredibly durable. I get compliments on it all the time, too. I use the first one with the broken ring as a beach bag.

Too Big for Me
Quality and price were good but size is way too big for a lady. It’s basically the size of a carry on rolling bag. Once you fill it may be too heavy to carry on one’s back.

Great buy, nice size
Bought matching pair for an international trip and it was perfect! We wanted to avoid checking pur bags and we're successful through the US but once international they kept making us check it...so that was a bummer. It helped up well, and otherwise was a great buy

So good!!
I used this backpack for a WEEK long trip via flight and I did not have to check it either! I was able to fit a weeks worth of clothes, shoes, and a Dyson airwrap. LOL. Get this bag! It’s so worth it, flying or not. It is SO SPACIOUS and the best part is being able to use it as a backpack. 10/10.

Great Design, But Not Ideal for Long Trips: Secure Those Zippers!
I loved the design and how everything was organized, but it’s not ideal for long international trips. - I overstuffed my backpack, which caused the zipper seam to start pulling. - I checked it in as-is, and during baggage handling, the front pocket zipper opened, and some of my stuff ended up on the conveyor belt at claim. I definitely recommend securing all zippers before checking in your luggage.

Great carry on
I bought this as none of my bags met carry on requirements and I've been very happy with it. It holds SO MUCH and I say that as an over packer. There are a ton of pockets and adjustments. I've only used it for one trip so far, so hopefully it lasts.
