The tips and tricks you learn from this comparison of two under the airplane seat backpacks will help you pack in only one piece of luggage.

It will be beneficial to watch the actual video so I will put it here. Tap the photo to watch, or keep reading.

The features these backpacks give you are what will solve our one bag packing problems.

If you like travel tips, you’ll love the 3rd brilliant feature!

Feature #1: Outer Pockets

Outer pocket gives you 2 benefits:

  • Easy access to a liquids bag.
  • Protects those squishy containers – no leaks, no crushing.

The pink backpack has waterproof pocket in the inside flap.

This type of pocket also protects your clothing inside the backpack from 3 problems:

  • powder makeup
  • greasy lotion
  • or possible leaks.

The black backpack has a divided inner pocket that spans the length of the cover.

Pink: use code TTLR1

Black: use code TTLR0 not the letter o.

Feature #2: No Travel Cases Needed

What I learned when only pack in a backpack as my carryon luggage is you do not need travel cases.

Use the outer pockets for your flight since the contents are easily accessible.

Pack your phone prop, AirPods, glasses case if you cannot bring a crossbody bag.

If you do not pack a case, those individual items can be moved around like Tetris once you pack the body of the baggage.

Travel Hack for Both Backpacks:

Roll a sweater and pack it inside the pocket designed for a bottle of water. If the bag sizer says it’s too large, take it out and tie it around your waist. Problem Solved.

Feature #3: Expandable

Both backpacks can do this: squish and smush and EXPAND!

The buckles on the left and right sides can compress your backpack.

And they also can loosen easily so that it expands so you can pack more!

Hope these tips help you pack in only your backpack. I honestly like both of them, but the pink fabric is a smoother fabric while the black is more of a canvas feel.
