Travelpro Crew Classic Lightweight Softside Luggage, Patriot Blue, 9 inches (L) x 16.25 inches (W) x 10 inches (H), Crew Classic Lightweight Softside Underseat Travel Tote Bag

Just returned from a 10-day trip with this bag as my personal item, paired with a Maxlite international size spinner case. This is a great bag - lightweight, tough, holds a lot, and a light-colored interior so I can see my things. Good design with a large main space and two separate pockets in front. It has structure, stands up and looks solid, but the fabric is flexy and quite soft. Perfect size not just for a United personal item, but also for the beach, a weekend trip, or gym. A major plus for my bony shoulders is that the shoulder strap is VERY padded, making the bag comfortable to carry even when it's packed with heavy stuff. The drawback of packing it heavy is that it is wider than my Maxlite case, and with the bag attached to the handle the case will tend to do face plants. I was able to improve the balance by packing heavy items at the bottom of the case and the back of the bag. This is probably not a concern for people with hard shell cases.

Perfect roomy size for carrying lots and still fitting under the airplane seat Firs well over luggage handle and appears to be sturdy Like that it has two handle options Highly recommend!

Wife loves it ...will see if it works on the overseas flights..

Purchased this bag as it is the exact dimensions (9x10x17) allowed by United Airlines as a “personal item” that can taken on the plane in addition to a carry on. It is the perfect design to allow maximum packing capability without unnecessary pockets and an unrestricted space on the interior to pack more items. The bag size itself is versatile in allowing it to be used for other purposes as well, such as a weekend bag. The zippers are metal and have an ergonomic curve for an easy grip, material is good quality that will not tear easily, yet lightweight to make travel less cumbersome. It was a bit more expensive than many options available, but it was worth the investment in not having incur a checked bag fee.

I recently purchased the Travelpro Crew Classic Underseat Tote to match a piece of rolling luggage I already own, and while I decided to keep it, I have a few mixed feelings about it. The Positives: Appearance: The bag looks great, and the color is really nice. Size & Weight: It is incredibly lightweight and the perfect size to use as an airline personal item. Capacity: Despite its compact size, it is very spacious on the inside and holds a lot of gear. The Downsides: Lack of Pockets: The interior and exterior design is very simple. It lacks the pocket organization I was expecting. If you prefer a streamlined bag without a lot of compartments, you will love this. However, I personally prefer having side pockets for quick access, just like on my previous Travelpro Maxlite 5 Underseat Tote. Material & Durability: Comparing the two, the fabric and overall build quality on my old Maxlite 5 honestly feels a bit more durable than this new Crew Classic bag. Final Verdict: If you want a lightweight, roomy underseat bag and don't care about having a lot of pockets, this is a solid choice. I'm keeping mine because it matches my existing luggage set perfectly, but I do miss the pockets and rugged feel of my old Maxlite.
