I'm looking for a backpack that becomes two backpacks

Osprey farpoint with daypack I tried it and it's meant to nest with the buckles, but It's pretty bulky when packed full.

Osprey Farpoint 70L backpacking Europe for 2 weeks

the farpoint 70 is really a 55L main pack with a 15L daypack zipped onto the front, so you didn't buy a 70L bag, you bought a 55 plus a daypack. the 55 is still well over carry-on on its own - osprey's carry-on sized one is the farpoint 40. whether that matters depends on your flights, not the two w

Anyone travel with a carry on?

10 years on the road with my wife, living out of two Osprey Farpoint 40L carry-ons. One each. This year, after a decade of wear and tear, we replaced them, with the exact same backpacks. That probably says everything. Traveling this way teaches you a simple rule: if something new comes in, something

Your bag is perfect except for "that one thing" - what is it?

I bought an Osprey Farpoint 55 instead of a Farpoint 40 specifically because the 55 doesn't have a laptop compartment.

Bedbugs & Backpacks?

Replace their bag, now. You can order ahead while you fight with the infestation of your new bag. I don’t know what year/version you are using, hopefully not the newest one. Just a couple of options: https://www.rei.com/product/C09496/osprey-farpoint-55-travel-pack-mens https://www.sierra.com/osprey

What’s the best travel backpack you’ve actually used and loved?

For flying, like the Osprey Farpoint (or Fairview - which my wife has). Shoulder straps, load lifters, and hip belts make them comfortable to carry across an airport or around town, and they have a zippered cover that keeps the harness bits under wraps when / if you simply want to carry the bags by

What’s the one bag you didn’t regret buying after real travel?

Osprey Farpoint 40, EXCEPT THE LAPTOP POCKET DOESN'T GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

Backpack for travel/carr on too

Check out Osprey farpoint/fairview 40L. It’s a travel backpack so it also has a clamshell opening that’s easy to get stuff in/out of like a suitcase. The backpack straps are actually really comfortable so you can walk with your pack fully loaded for longer distances, up stairs, etc. It’s very resili

New Travel Backpack vs. Older one?

The 2-in-1 solves a pretty specific problem quite well. I’ve been doing essentially exactly this with the 45L travel in 35L mode and then putting in the main compartment the newer Osprey 12L backpack (that goes on the Farpoint) as the bag I access in my airplane seat. If you need a medium travel bac
