Does my travel backpack count as a carry on?

Most airlines allow one piece of carry-on luggage. A rule of thumb is that if the backpack fits in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you, it is considered a carry-on. However, make sure to check the specific airline’s size limits for carry-on bags.

Characteristics of carry-ons

In finding the best carry-on travel backpack, several characteristics should be weighted.

Size: Ensure that the backpack meets the standard dimensions of carry-ons established by the airline.

Capacity: Look for a carry-on backpack with a capacity of around 35L – 45L for it to comply with the carry-on rules and adopt light packing strategies to fit all belongings within the backpack.

Quality: Make sure that the travel backpack is made of a durable and high-quality fabric that can withstand common wear and tear during travels.

Straps: Look for a backpack with adjustable and padded straps – these will allow for a good and personalised fit to the body.

Compartments: A backpack with a lot of compartments and pockets will contribute to easy access and organisation of content.

Opening: Ideally, the opening of the backpack should be like a suitcase, as this enables easy access to all contents at once.
