Has anyone used this product as a carry on for travel?

I have not. Whether it would be suitable or not would depend on what you are putting in carry on.

They have a wide enough opening that it wouldn't be an item to store in overhead bins However, it would be a very useful bag to stow in a purse or pack to use to put items you picked up along the way.

It's really just a grocery bag, except not plastic. If you would carry around a plastic grocery bag, then I guess you would carry this around, too. I have used them on trips for carrying odds and ends.

I would say the shoulder strap is a bit short and the over all size a bit small for my likings. The bag is more geared to keeping with you in a back pack or handbag as a shopping sack. I used it during our trip to the UK to carry groceries from the market, spare shoes etc.Etc.

No - but I can't see why it wouldn't work if you needed some place to stash a book, sweater etc.

Sure you can, I've seen women use these as purses. It's really a shoulder shopping bag. I wouldn't depend on it to safely carry electronic devices, maybe a lunch or book for carry-on.

I bought the bags for a gift. When waiting at a shopping line, you can toss them around to kill time while waiting.

I have used this bag numerous times as my carry-on bag for flights with no problems.

This is too big to be used as carry on. You can use it for checked luggage. I have travelled internationally with this and checked in this bag.

In my experience, yes. I have flown both domestic and international airlines (Southwest and United) with this bag as a carry-on (and packed pretty much full). It can get a little unwieldy and might be difficult to cram into the overhead compartments, but it does fit and I never had any trouble with the airlines or security about the size.

Hi Linda it can be used as a carry-on the one I purchased has been to Ireland and all over Europe. The only issue is weight. You add 1 body 2 lens 1 flash memory laptop or tablet batteries travel size toiletries and 1 change of cloths and a passport. It get real heavy. So pack what you need camera wise first and go from there just remember you have to carry it! Cheers Mike

No, not at all. We got through at least 4 security checks with no issue. I had it in my purse through the first check and when we realized it wouldn't fit on the airline we were flying (Etihad) we kept it in our carry on for the rest of the trip.

I have flown numerous times with this bag as my carry on and never had any issues with the TSA agents.

I've used it several times as a carry on without any problems. Only once was I asked to check it right before I walked on the plane but only because the storage bins were all full. Flying out again in two weeks so I'm curious to see anything has changed as of dec 2nd.

I've used this bag as a carryon/my main travel bag for a number of airlines (american, us airway, southwest, airtran, and jetblue). Exception is when I flew Frontier. They made me check the bag.

I have not flown since I bought it but it is more compact than my regular carry-on. I would say yes.

I took it but didn't use it. The air France flight that I was on had its own footrests. I agree it was heavy and took up needed space in my carry on. My friend (who recommended it) swears by hers.

It should be fine as a carry on but might may be a bit bigger than some of the overhead bins. Id have to double check the exact length

Absolutely, I do it all the time! If you're still unsure my advice is to double check the airline's carry on restrictions (since some are different dimensions), and as a rule of thumb try not to over stuff it.

I haven't actually flown with my bag, but I see no reason why it would not work fine as a carry-on. It would be best to ask someone who knows all the ins and outs of air carrier rules. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

It's a small bag! I think you could take it as a carry on if you'd like. I don't see why it would be a problem. I took it with me onto a plane a few months back.

Yes, I have used it as a carryon with my electronics with no problem on domestic and international flights. The small farpoint 40 can be used as a carryon and I find myself being more efficient at packing and use this bag more.

I travel for a living but I have never traveled with my pack as a carry on when flying. Judging from the size of the seats and the length of the bag I can safely assume the bag will be to long to actually fit under the seat.
