Pro Backpack 40L

This is fantastic. I can pack for a trip without having to check in luggage. Honestly, the only drawback is that there are so many compartments that I kept unzipping the wrong section to the one I wanted to open! I’ve already recommended it to people and two of them have bought one

My wife needs wheelchair assistance for airports. We will be traveling by air in a few months and needed a solution for carry-on luggage. With the Tortuga, I can carry one on my back and wheel one. We recently took a vacation and were impressed by how much this bag holds. Lots of pockets to stash stuff and stay organized.

Nice concept, limited capacity

Normally, you expect a fabric carry on to expand a bit when you take it out of its shipping wraps. The Tortuga Travel Backpack Pro remains somewhat compressed. This means its capacity wasn't what I expected after reading the positive Wirecutter review. It remains bound up and holds fewer clothes than I would expect for a carry on replacement. Its handle is buried in its folds. You may be able to get more than a couple of changes in it, but you'll be fighting by the bag to stand its sides up.
