^Thank you for your advice; I do prefer the panel loading rather than top loading, but there aren't as many choices in a smaller capacity unfortunately. The REI Vagabond Tour 40 seems better suited for airline travel, as well as the MEC Supercontinent 45. Unfortunately there are no REI or MEC stores where I live, so I would not be able to try these on. So I'm still on the hunt as it were....17
Oo...I really like the look of the Osprey Farpoint 40! It looks like a nice balance of capacity, carry on, not overly flashy (which I like), and even has a detachable daypack which I didn't know when I first saw it. I am fairly certain that my local adventure store would sell osprey packs, so this has definitely moved to the top of my list. Thank you!!!20
I didn't think it had a detachable day pack either, but the website below stated:"A large pocket on the front of the Farpoint 40 can be detached entirely for use as a fully functional day pack." Maybe this was copied and pasted from the larger capacity version of this bag?
