Carry-on Backpacks

A shoulder bag or a carry-on suitcase is not always the most suitable luggage option. If you want to travel low-cost without checking in luggage and paying extra fees, you will appreciate a backpack as carry-on luggage, in which you can store everything you need even for a multi-day trip. A cabin backpack is a great choice for those who like to have all their belongings under control while wanting to enjoy moving around their destination without restrictions.

However, some airlines distinguish between smaller carry-on luggage (e.g., 40x20x25 cm), which fits under the seat, and larger cabin luggage (e.g., 55x40x20 cm), which can be placed in the overhead bin.
