Osprey Packs Daylite Expandable Travel Pack 26 Liter and 6 Liter

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great light weight pack that I purchased for my weekend trips. I love the open space and the way it flaps open like a luggage. The separate laptop zipper/holder worked great, giving me access without compromising the main compartment. It fit perfectly underneath the seat in front if me. Overall a great new bag that I'm looking forward to using long-term.

All backpacks are a compromise and this is not exception; but the positive aspects far out weigh the negative. I purchased it to function as my personal item on flights for which it is excellent, fitting under the seat. Indeed, there were times when this was the only bag I took for a several days journey, The zippered access to the computer sleeve is a nice feature allowing easy access to my e-reader or computer pad when the pack is full. With the water bottle pockets and sternum strap it functions extremely well as a day pack when out and about both at home and abroad. This is the pack I carry when off to the market. The zippered additional space is very handy as I often purchase more than I intended. It is when carrying a full pack that the only negative compromise becomes evident. The pack has no ventilation, so on hot days perspiration builds; but were it to have a ventilation system, the added bulk would take away some of the internal volume or it may not fit under an airline seat. For me, this compromise, losing some ventilation, is well worth dealing with when considering the many positive qualities. I highly recommend this pack to anyone requiring an excellent everyday bag that also functions perfectly as a personal item when flying.

This could have been a five star but the major drawback for me is the trolley sleeve is too low and the top of the bag tends to lean forward when slid on to the handle of a rolling case. Even if lightly packed this can make a carryon top heavy and want to tip forward which is really annoying. If you don't use it in combination with a rolling case then this is ideal. One other note is that is not really comfortable when expanded but for a brief time would be ok, definitely wouldn't want it expanded on top of a rolling case.

I’m converted to using this as an under seat bag rather than paying for a cabin bag. It fits a surprising amount in. Made really well.

Incredible backpack. Super lightweight but no compromise on space. Quality materials used and very nice design. Just used it for a 5 day trip and was very easy to carry through the airport. This is the best backpack I’ve ever had. Can’t recommend it enough.

Wonderful backpack. Made travel very easy. The only issue is my husband used it for work and loved it so much that he took it from me so now I have to buy another.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as a gift for my husband who never uses any kind of suitcase when traveling and while he has yet to use it, I’m impressed with the craftsmanship of the bag, smart design for packing enough for a weeks trip, and the lightweight features, Amazing design and a great product. Compared to other more expensive small packs we own, this is my favorite.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought I found a perfect lighter, smaller Osprey travel pack. There's much to like about it; easy loading, holds a lot and it's comfortable. One thing failed. I carry, and use, folded trekking poles because, well, I'm not getting any younger and they're helpful. They don't fit in small packs and easy-to-grab is important. Exterior mesh side pockets usually work... not this time. Poles fell out when moving the pack and as it was stowed. So did a thin water bottle. There isn't a cinch strap at the top of the mesh pockets like on my other packs. While researching, I saw what must have been a similar pack that had thin cinch straps. This one just doesn't. I'll have find a fix for this problem or ditch the pack. Still love the brand but I'm very disappointed that such a small detail is missing.

Took this on a recent trip. Found the full zip around the bag great for packing. The back zip for slipping in iPads was very useful and having made a few purchases on the trip, the expanding zip provided invaluable extra space
