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

Best Carry on Luggage in 2026

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.

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

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.

I'm looking for a backpack that becomes two backpacks

I love the farpoint! Have had and used the farpoint 55 for 10 years and it’s super versatile. Valuables in the daypack and I can take it on or off depending on the situation, like main bag in cabin overhead storage and day pack with me at the seat. The connecting zipper broke on the daypack but I’m

Cycling backpack 30L plus?

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

Backpack or Suitcase for month China trip

I used a 55L Osprey farpoint which is essentially a 40L + 15L for an entire month of travel. It was great in SEA because a lot of commute was with motorbikes and a suitcase would not be convenient. The backpack is enough for 1.5 weeks of clothes and I would do laundry in hotels. I'd also buy clothes

Carry-on Suitcase Recs

Not quite what you asked, but I travel a fair bit mostly around European cities and switched from a roller carry on to a backpack and couldn’t be happier. Even the smoothest wheels are loud on cobbled roads and footpaths. My main backpack is the Osprey Farpoint and it’s holding up spectacularly well

Seasonal Worker abroad for six months in France: Brittany coastal region

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
