Great packing video! I’ve never tried unzipping the fabric to put my items there- good tip. I’ve always used the space between the bars. I travel with mini straightener and brush and that helps cut down on space. I also travel with flip flops for hotel room floors, carpet. Feels less “icky” 😊. Also doubles as pool shoes.

Hi @lauralinkoff3776 I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Those spaces between the bars always annoyed me too. I travel with the same hair equipment as you and also a pool shoes and I feel that it is less icky putting those items below.

A heads-up for those who are interested in the Kroser bag. If you clip the coupon, you will save $10. Makes it a good deal, I think.

I came across your video right after ordering my Arcoyard 17" H x 13" L x 7.5" W under-seat rolling suitcase from Amazon. The Arcoyard is closer in design to your Luggex. I was having second thoughts until I saw how you managed to fully pack your suitcases, so when my bag arrived I was no longer terrified. I use the long slim packing cubes, so I have lots of storage to work with. Your hidden storage idea was great for using the full capacity of the bag. Thanks a million!

Hi Perrie, Nice demonstration of the underseaters. I just ordered the LUGGEX. I have not been a big traveler in my lifetime, so I don't know a lot about types of luggage and accessories. But, now that I am getting closer to retirement age, I am ready to do some traveling and am planning a trip to Ireland! Could you give me any traveling tips and recommendations? Also, would you show us how you pack the compression cubes, and do you press out the extra air? I only want to pack a carry-on and underseater for my trip and need tips on fitting the most items in. Thanks!

@PerriesPassport 14 күн бұрын

Hi @mbwelsh65 G;ad to hear that you are going out to see some new exciting places.First of all, I hope you are using the LUGGEX as your personal item and or a short trip bag. You are allowed both a carry on and the luggex for longer trips, like Ireland.(you're going to love Ireland). No matter what time of year you are depending on going, make sure you check the weather a week before you go, to make sure you are packing right. Also, I did a whole video on how to pack with packing cubes here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bMCGbJNp0c-0fJ8.html Compression cubes do all the work for pressing the air out. If you are using compression cubes, I find that either flat packing or a single layer of rolled clothes works the best. Otherwise, compression cubes become too hard to compress. I personally use both, regular packing cubes and compression packing cubes since i think they serve different purposes. I have an upcoming video about packing to the max with just a carry-on, so keep on the lookout for that.. Hope this helps a bit.

I purchased one of these bags for a trip to Buenos Aires. Neither my hopper flight in a 737, nor my seat in premium economy could I fit this bag under the seat in front of me. I had to choose to either leave it where I was or pack it inside my checked bag in order to get it home! It is an awesome bag with lots of great features, but it just wouldn’t fit under the seat and I didn’t have it stuffed as much as you did.

I have a bag similar to this but different brand from Amazon same size and everything is it gonna be in the way if you pack your shoes and stuff underneath like when you pull the handle out to be able to roll up the case? Because I’ve seen this happen before, and I didn’t want it to interfere or break the handle. Others have not said anything about the concern I have.

My question would be, when fully stuffed as you packed it- did the exterior dimensions change? Would it still fit into the sizers at the airport?

@PerriesPassport 3 ай бұрын

Hi@clericiranchI The only measurement that mattered with these two bags was the width, since the other two measurements are at or under. They both measured as 8 inches in depth when fully filled, but I know as a fact that although Frontier says they take 8, their baggage cage is a bit smaller than Spirit. That being said, these are soft body bags and a bit soft so I would say yes to both, but a trip to the airport is worth it., if you are taking Frontier.

@conniekershaw4412 3 ай бұрын

I used the Kroser on a recent trip to Italy. All the pockets became irritating because I would forget which pocket I put what in. You can over pack it to the point the width is over the size allotted. Mine didn't fit under the seat.

15 x 9 x 7 for personal item on budget European flights. 🫣 I have to pay for the carry-on (hand luggage) anyway-- (Osprey Fairview or Porter). As the v4 Bento is way too big, I'm toying with just taking my Osprey 22L ultralight dry backpack for under seat essentials. Yet, it's a shame to waste the space alloted. I was eyeing the PAKT 15L backpack. The price tag is bringing me back to reality 🤑 ECOHUB backpack is a budget buy. 🤔

Hi @696969bold. There is no standard with those budget European airlines. Like for instance, EasyJet allows like US carriers the 18"X14"X8" but Ryanair only allows 16"x 10"X 8", so it is really important to check what the personal size is. Have you tried looking at the Tomtoc Backpack? It comes in both a 28L and is compliant with most airlines. I think you might like it given the bags you are looking at.

@@PerriesPassport great suggestion. I'm actually looking at a better sling to partner with my Osprey travel backpack. Right now, I stick with a 1L Osprey ultralight waist bag and my 22L Osprey ultralight dry backpack in flight when I use the Porter or Fairview. So far...lightweight, holds everything including tablet (I don't tote a laptop), electronics, snacks, cleaning kit, small toiletries, etc). The challenge with that is keeping the 22L on my chest when walk about. This spurred the sling solution... until I got that SCOTTEVEST windbreaker! On domestic flights, just the 1L waist bag and the Samantha Brown Essential Carry-All does it. If I need an 21" carry-on wheeled suitcase for longer trips, the Samantha Brown becomes my personal item.
