Farpoint 55

I love my Osprey Fairview/Farpoint 55. Best carry on bags ever. Walking through the airport hands-free is a fantastic experience. Also, most airlines never force check backpacks.

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

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

You could look at the Deuter Trans Alpine series, I have used a regular size for many years. The regular size is here also 28l, so similar to the Osprey Escapist. There is also a larger (taller) 32l version. But that is aimed at tall riders, so with long back, at least 1.85 m height. Considering tha

Looks perfectly possible to me. The Osprey Farpoint will work for overhead carryon and help you handle the weight. Definitely pile up your packing list items in a box and weigh it. If the box is roughly 22”x14”x9” you can get a good idea of packed volume at the same time. Do you need a puffy? I woul

Only thing they have is cool colors. The fabric is really nice. Back panels are not ventilated so you will sweat a lot. Shoulder straps aren’t very good. They pack way too big for carry on unless you can figure out some kind of compression system. Straps aren’t fully stowable and there’s no adjustab

If a lot of your daughter’s kit is spread among other bags then you can pull it off! But that means bigger bags than your mid-sized Allpa. Bigger bags are more comfortable with a waist belt to carry the load, and you can add a monkey bag for food… like the Osprey Farpoint/Fairview 55, which is a 40L

It has all the ergonomics of a potato sack with straps. Get a proper backpack with a load transferring harness.

I have the Osprey stuff pack/ sack (I think that’s what it’s called). But recently purchased the Osprey Farpoint 55 which is a 40L main pack (with great design and fitment) with an additional 15L daypack which is amazing re fitment, adjustability, and design. It attaches to the rear of the main 40L

Not mutually exclusive at all! I use Osprey Farpoint 40 for exactly this - fits airline carry on requirements and works decent for 2-3 day hikes. The panel loading design makes it way easier when you're staying in hostels compared to traditional top loading packs Only downside is it's not as comfort
