Travel Backpack vs. Rolling Suitcase (In-Depth Carry On Buyer's Guide)

[@ChipyRose]

Im currently on my first month of a two month trip through Greece and the Balkans. I started with a backpack with wheels and a personal item. The idea was that if I couldn’t roll I would use it a la a backpack… well guess what?! It was just too heavy and I quickly decided it was crazy to hurt my back. Another issue I found was that the roller backpack didn’t have a surface to hold my personal item. Because of the amorphous shape of the backpack nothing will stay on top of it while carrying it. So I decided to buy a roller carryon in Greece. It’s great to know that what seems yo be a hard shell case is really a little flexible. I can now place my personal item over it. And I have ditched the backpack with wheels. Oh, Another thing I like about carryons is that the are square and I can utilize every single inch of the case with my packing cubes. There’s no space wasted and everything fits beautifully. Thank you so much for your video. It is very comprehensive.

Backpack for me. Tried and tested for over a decade of travelling. It keeps me comfortable and moving with a weight of upto 12 kg.

[@korrasm1137]

In the last decade, I have been traveling with just a 30L backpack and a foldable tote bag as my personal item. I prefer using a backpack over carry-on luggage because it gives me mobility and allows me to move around hands-free. During my recent trip, my flight was delayed by 30 minutes due to heavy air traffic, and I only had 15 minutes to catch my connecting flight. If I had been using rolling luggage, I don't think I would have made it in time. Thanks to my backpack, I was able to run and catch my flight with ease.

[@eliprod.1648]

Which one do you have?

[@grahamjohnson4702]

If you had spoken to the stewards they could have arranged delaying your connection if it was an inclusive travel ticket.

[@angelajuneau7457]

My carry on is a backpack now and forever after going on a couple of trips and having to navigate subways and stairs. Now I really need a good personal item that will work with my backpack.

[@supercoolmunkee]

Get one of those small sling bag. I've been seeing these as a trend at airports. They have a backpack and then for the small personal items they use a sling bag.

[@leannbl9701]

I am 56 and use an Osprey Porter 46 to pack in and a tote bag for my personal item. I like to keep my hands free and makes me more conscious of packing only what I need with room to expand for any purchases. I traveled with my grandson last year and needed to keep my hands available to carry or roll his luggage if necessary. Just easier with a backpack for me!

[@the_wiki9408]

I like the regular size under seat backpack + roller bag combo. Gives you about as much space combined as a medium sized checked bag and then you have a daypack if you need one. Plus it keeps your entertainment and quick access items with you in the seat.

[@jessica_video_projects]

I know this, I am never ever going to carry a roller bag again! I went to Europe last summer to a music festival. Seven months to plan this and I decided to get a roller bag because I thought oh cool I could just pull everything 😢😅 Big mistake! It was a total holdup and hell going upstairs and downstairs all the walking I had to do it sucked… lol I didn’t know what I was thinking I thought maybe was on wheels I could haul everything better … Lesson learned! Next year definitely going with a back pack ! Awesome video 👏😎

[@volkswagen4866]

I've been a backpack guy for years. My wife not. I'm in my mid 70's and still use a rugged military backpack. I spent 35 of my 45 working years as an Engineer working and living overseas (Middle-East, Africa, Europe and South American). I learned how to travel light by doing a hitch in the Army. I raised my 3 kids on the road for the most part with me. I still continue to travel to this day. Just got back from a month of travel in Italy by rail.

[@awaytogether]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Props to you, sir. Any tips on raising kids on the road? Taking notes!

[@volkswagen4866]

Try not to center on the kids but make them a part of the travel experience. Picking up a little bit of the local language and letting them play with the local kids will open up the world to them. Lots of crayons and coloring books helps on the road too. Each of my 3 kids are now in their 40's speak 4 languages @@awaytogether

[@kimcarroll1129]

@@awaytogether love your videos! We took our 5 yr old son to France years ago using a backpack each. He was allowed to take his favorite Beanie Baby which was small. We bought him 1 very small Lego set that was a European truck for his souvenir He had a blast! And he got creative playing with just his 2 toys

[@boatlover1875]

You touched on packing cubes. I was skeptical but would never travel without them anymore. If you a a cruiser, they are particularly awesome. I throw them on the shelves, each with their own type of clothing and watch my wife unpack for a half hour! On the way for three weeks in Europe and will be trying out the compression version in hope of being able to take just two carry on sized luggage pieces.

[@bretaskinner3143]

Backpack checked. In 2010 we traveled around Scandinavia with 15 year old Eagle Creek large backpacks. On a smaller flight from Estonia to Stockholm, they had us check the main section, but we zipped off the "day pack" section. So, it can happen ;) We are in our early 60's now, and too out of shape for those bags now. Once we emerge from hibernation (we hate crowds, so are hoping the post covid travel frenzy will calm down) we will likely get rollers. Thank you for your insight to traveling.

[@JWoody-yc7bt]

your Winter Travel List has been a great tool for our travel coming up this November to GB and IRE. Thank You for all of your insight!!

[@WilyHazzard]

kay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the kislux book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations

[@richardmyracle6198]

Turtle. I started using a backpack for shorter trips. I like it. I don't have a travel pack yet and just use my regular daycare. I have been o e bag traveling for years. I am 62. A roller bag going by to Paris socks. There are too many stairs using the metro and the cobble street are terrible. One day I will have a travel backpack.. I look forward to your video.

[@FazerJr]

Depends on the situation of travel. I have and use both depending on my needs 🤙🏼

[@bradavon]

Exactly. There's also a third option not covered here. A backpacking backpack. I'd not take luggage with wheels or only a day backpack to the likes of India.

[@StirlingQShagnasty]

We lived in China for a while. It is very common in China to wear "back"packs on the front, especially when on some sort of transit convenance. The advantage is that you don't have to worry about hitting folks, getting pickpocketed and it is very convenient to get into if needed.

[@stalean0301]

Turtle! I am going on an international trip soon and bought the Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Expandable as my carry-on and the WONHOX Large Travel Backpack that opens like a suitcase for my personal item bag. It has a strap that attaches to the handle on my carry-on luggage, so I don't have to backpack it. It's the perfect size for United Airlines personal item requirements.

[@minneapaulis]

Nik, I gotta tell ya. You’re getting ALL the exact content I’m looking for when it comes to travel. All super relevant and different than other creators. Keep it up, my friend! Turtle. I’m going to Europe this December and trying to figure out what makes more sense for me

[@seanyunt]

My wife and I just completed 3 weeks of travel through central Europe that included 5 countries, and 15+ hours of train rides. The hard shell wins. Compliment with a mini-backpack (underseat on the airline bag) that included a "trolly sleeve" and it's a winning combo. Some rural train stations only have stairs, many are adjacent to metro stations. We were constantly moving between transportion modes. Having 4 wheels was very helpful. Wearing a thicker backpack would have been a hinderance on very crowded buses and trains where it was standing room only.

[@ulvesparker]

For 40 years, I have used a rolling, carry-on sized backpack. I travel to places where sometimes there is no pavement or only dirt roads. I only use my rolling hard luggage when it is raining or snowing and I expect my luggage to sit out in it. My back pack does have a raincover but is not as waterproof as my hard shell. For the person who asked about having a backpack already as their personal hand baggage, I sometimes use my daypack as a front pack (like a baby carrier on my belly). I actually travel with three pieces of luggage every time, and they are like those Russian nesting dolls. I have a carry-on cabin sized rolling backpack. Inside of it, folded up into about the size of a small pizza box is a large military ballistic cordura duffle bag also with straps, and capable of holding my rolling carry on sized backpack inside it if necessary. And my third item is my Osprey daypack which is pretty much my EDC bag.

[@grantw7]

We are in our mid-70s and have always travelled the world with soft-sided roll-ons. As I am forbidden to drive for most of this year (medical), our trip to Scotland in September will now see us travelling by train around the region. As we discovered while travelling by train in Thailand a few years ago a backpack will be more convenient. Finally, I will be forced to cut back on what I take (no more "what if I need this item, but never do"). My personal bag will be an over-the-shoulder one. We are curious to see if this works and if it will be used for all future trips. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks

[@jnnyrotten1322]

Both, Nomad for a year now. 24" Hard-side roller that I check and a Pakt 35L carry on backpack for the overhead bin. I end up needing slightly more room/gear but still need roller light enough to manage trains, planes and automobiles :)

[@elena_a-2023]

As always, your video is so helpful! Grateful! I got my Monos pro because of your suggestion and I love it! I agree with you that there are times where a backpack could be best. Thanks again for all the cool info!

[@patreispower6536]

I carry on a soft suitcase with hidden back straps and wheels . It works in all situations ( cobbles or steps ) . I am an older smaller woman , so this is a game changer for me .

[@jaykay2729]

Where did you buy? Name of the brand please

[@RenM908]

As I have gotten older, I have gravitated towards roller bags, especially for business travel. I am not so much taking public transit to and from the airport so I dont mind the cab ride from the airport to my lodging in which case I find the type of luggage I have really matters. Also 30lbs is about a 3rd of my weight so even carrying a 18-20lb backpack for a long time will start to hurt my back and I dont want to be in pain on vacation. I use the topo roller backpack which gives me the option to use as a backpack if needed but I hardly ever use backpack mode. I also have the option to loop a personal item on it too which is nice.

[@MeMe-ht2hd]

That's smart 🤓 Thank you, for the suggestion.

[@StMikey]

Tendonitis in my right shoulder: roller carry-on. I do have a small backpack that I carry my in-flight/sightseeing necessities in. Since I'm more of a city boy than adventurer, I'm okay with that set-up. Lining up an Italian trip soon.

[@viviunia]

Getting ready for a month long Europe trip and this helped me a lot! thank you, and TURTLE!

[@emonfain7524]

Thanks for your content and the work you put into giving us information about traveling and the best gear that can work for anyone. I'm in my late 50s and your videos always give me great options for my needs. I enjoy traveling with both but also learning, from you two how to continue to be a carryon only traveler. Thanks again.

[@seaspeaktome9167]

Agree with all of your points, there is a time and place for both. Traveling with my child I tend to pack more now than I used to (I've even *gasp* checked a bag) though I know that will change as she gets older. I will say I've never felt as free as the trips I've done with just a daypack/~25l backpack though!

[@lisaatp]

Turtle!!!! Also… I prefer a top loader backpack because it can just stand up in the corner and with packing cubes and strategy I can load it where I’m not always having to dig down through for what I want. My preferences (for your video) … about 30 liters so not crazy heavy, will hold a fair amount, and fit under seat… top-loader… outside front pocket for quick access and some organization (but not like tons of organization pockets inside) and a water bottle holder…. Still trying to find my dream backpack!

[@dontworrydehappy7104]

Backpack is a great choice and I plan on strapping it to a compact mini luggage dolly. Haven't tried it yet, but plan on it. I drive to my destinations, so don't have that airport scene. However, at some resorts, there usnt an elevator and backpacks make it easier to navigate lots of steps.

[@janetjoyrubrico8621]

Turtle! Excited to see your baby girl in her travels! Which cute little bag is she bringing?

[@michellelkphoto1543]

I am looking at the Osprey porter 46 as my main luggage piece. I am in a wheelchair and trying to wheel myself and hold onto a rolling suitcase I’m finding a bit of a challenge. I’m hoping with the Osprey to be able to loop it on the back of my chair seat.

[@lannifincoris6482]

I have bought an Inateck for my trip this year. Along with a bigger checked suitcase. Because of all the souveniers I will carry back. The suitcase is still in the middle seize range and the bagpack has the measures as a carry on with the big airlines.

[@fred6132]

One of my favorite...if not my favorite video in your series. FYI - looooooove backpacks!!

[@mlykke]

TURTLE :D Would love to see a comparison between a bunch of backpacks in the 35-40L range. I think backpack is superior because you have your hands free. Plus your also not supposed to pack it so heavy that it's a problem to carry it.

[@kimledingham8823]

“TURTLE” Love your guys content & reviews!!

[@haroldmarenger3435]

Thanks for another great and useful video. Turtle! I would like to see a travel backpack comparison video. The product choices can huge.

[@jaredharris1970]

When i travel now i will use a backpack for my tech items and a spare set of clothes and a 29 inch suitcase i try to be as minimal as possible a inflatable pillow is easier to store than a bulky one and a lightweight travel blanket both fit in the backpack

[@yaowsers77]

I have the backpack which i prefer but had experienced the pain of how heavy it became in customs and security. I bought a collapsible lightweight hand truck to attach to the bag and it'll fit in my bag. We'll see how it goes when i go to London next year. I have since bought the osprey farpoint 40.

[@cmartin_ok]

WIth a checked case I take a backpack on board planes so that I have one hand free to open doors etc when negotiating airport, public transport, hotel receptions etc. If I am travelling light without a checked bag, a backpack gives you much better freedom than having to wheel a cabin case everywhere, but it depends on what I want to take with me

[@runnnynose]

If just 1 or the other, I do backpack. But I normally use both a roll-on and a backpack because of the options it gives me during my travels

[@LeannaRuthJensen]

The right softside roller bag and fanny packs for me. I started wearing a fanny pack instead of carrying a purse after being in a disaster where being hands free was a real safety issue. I also found a camera bag/fanny pack that fits under my "purse". Neither has to be removed to access them or to sit in a chair - just spin them back to front. Also the weight rests on your hips more than your back which helps reduce fatigue. For some reason fanny packs are looked down on even more than backpacks but I find the plusses out weigh their bad PR.

[@melissatsang9493]

What Fanny pack are you describing? I’m interested

[@tracybryant2428]

My husband and I are learning so much from you all. We just bought the Monos carry ons. Now I’m looking for a backpack. Turtle

I was looking at something similar to the one you are testing out and wondering if it was comfortable and worth it. I hope you'll do a full review on all points price, material/construction, durability, comfort, and value of the Nomatic McKinnon backpack. And yes absolutely TURTLE, please do the review.

[@themorn2112]

I've been traveling carry-on only for 25 years now (Not including my stint in the USN) for my trips to Southeast Asia (SEA). I have always been about 100% function. All of my carry on bags have been backpack/duffle bags with locking pockets because of the "give" a bag has when being stowed. My last few bags have been convertible duffle bags with integrated backpack straps. Fashion has never been a priority for me (all of my bags have been black with the exception of one backpack that was navy blue due to that being the only color offered) with a handle, and a shoulder strap for quick transports and leverage for stowage. I never used packing cubed because of the multiple pockets in my duffle bag, as well as incorporating the "Army Roll" method of packing clothing.

[@namcanguyen8781]

I did the 40L maximum carry on sized back pack a few times but after switching to rolling luggage + persoanal item with luggage passthrough i think its a better combination *most the time* the exceptions being more rural areas without good roads for wheeled luggage.

[@amandapursifull]

Turtle 🐢 for sure! I really appreciate the in depth videos

[@paul_domici]

I just bought a large backpack the size of a carry on. Filled it and put it on my back! It's too heavy and it's going back! I'll stick with a rolling carry on : )

[@jonkeller1786]

I bought a rolling case for our trip to Europe and in the end I am going with a THULE 60L. For myself. The level 8 and Monos are nice but I just felt like I was still missing something. With this pack and a personal pack, I feel well covered for an 11 day trip.

[@tintintravelers]

@1:40 If you have to stand in a long immigration line, just take off your backpack and put it on the ground. When you inch up the line, then pick up your bag and scoot it up. It's not that hard or heavy.

[@thecleaningteacher638]

Turtle! 🐢 Please include the eBags Mother Lode vs. Underseat Pro!

[@Green__one]

If I can help it, I never use a roller bag. They are a pain on anything other than smooth linoleum, every flight these days forces about 10% of people to check their roller bags, and as I (or my company) always pay for cheap airfares, I'm last to board, so most likely to be forced to check. Beyond that they're harder to throw in a cab, a pain in crowds, and tie up a hand. I honestly can't see any upside to them unless your plan is to check luggage, and that doesn't sound like a good plan to me! Get a good backpack and don't over pack and it'll be comfortable, squish into any hole you need to shove it in, and be so much easier to transport.

The problem for me is if my carryon is a backpack then I have two backpacks to carry around as my personal item is a backpack.

[@arlencarlson]

Get a packable backpack to fit inside.

[@johnvillalovos]

@@arlencarlson I don't understand how that helps. My carry-on is already full and I also have a full personal item backpack. If you mean just put everything into one backpack, that doesn't work for me (maybe it does for other people) as I don't have room. And I already have a packable daypack that I bring in addition to my personal item backpack.

[@arlencarlson]

@@johnvillalovos Ahh…sorry, I guess I didn’t understand your entire use case. I know for me, I travel with a roller bag, and a personal item (underpacked enough to fit under the seat), and also have a packable daypack put into one of those two items. I have heard of some being able to get away with a small sling (in addition to a similar array of items).

[@johnvillalovos]

@@arlencarlson I travel like that too. I always put my personal item backpack under the seat. One trip I did both personal item backpack and carry-on backpack. But then I was doing the double turtle wearing one backpack on my back and the other facing the front. Not very comfortable 😁

Really like your videos. You always pick the topic I’m thinking or wondering about. I was literally wondering about this. Watching this video was wondering whether your full backpack you were always able to get it inside the overhead compartment? You noted never had to check it in but the one you had looked pretty bulky.

[@sbkpilot1]

A point to note about security.. any zipper can be defeated in about 2 seconds using a ball point pen, locking a zipper only adds psychological value. Bags without zippers are more secure.

[@nogames8982]

I am blind and I use a guide to dog. For my next trip I’m going to try a carry-on backpack. I’ve been using one of the roller carry-ons, but it’s a pain in the butt. I’m not sure what I’m gonna use as my personal bag yet, but I’ll figure it out. whatever I get cannot go under the seat in front of me because that’s where my dog goes.

[@jaredharris1970]

Here’s my take I’ve used rolling backpacks rolling carryons and backpacks rolling seems to be heavier due to the weight of the wheels and handle hardware and in my experience the wheels dug into my sides and a rolling carryon soft or hard just don’t seem to be stable when upright when u expand them they tip forward so for the past few years I’ve used just a regular backpack just because my hands are free to do other things

[@tanyagwilkins962]

In my last few trips with my rolling carry-on, the airlines made me gate check it. The reason we don't check luggage is because we want to leave the airport as soon as we reach our destination. My husband uses a rolling backpack but just rolls it, never carried it, and the airline personnel never tell him it will be gate checked. Have you tested a rolling carry on back pack? What are your opinions on it?

[@claudiaross239]

Allowed luggage varies GREATLY by airline!! Read the fine print BEFORE you buy the ticket as which level ticket you buy also impacts the allowed luggage. Most airlines allow a carry on AND a personal item. Depending on my trip I use my backpack as the personal item with a soft sided suitcase. For the majority of my travels the same backpack is my personal item and a large crossbody bag is my personal item.

[@ancilm]

[@farmecologist3395]

We just got back from over two weeks in Europe. I carried a travel backpack ( Peak Design ) and my spouse had a roller ( AWAY brand carryon ). The travel backpack did get a bit heavy on the shoulders at times. I'd say take a travel backpack if you can pack light enough to make it comfortable. On the flip side, the roller was actually a bit difficult to roll in the streets of Europe ( Haarlem, Netherlands for example ). I do also have an Osprey pack that is essentially a backpack with inline roller wheels...and a detachable daypack. So it can function as a backpack AND a rolling suitcase. They don't make the model I have anymore. However, I think they do make a similar model.

[@annuetz996]

I am struggling with having a more professional look, but international carrier is absolute per blogs on size and most of these bags are to large in one of the dimensions (55 x 35 x25) any recommendations?
