Skeptical at first but love this bag

I did a lot of Osprey research for this bag as I wanted an Osprey pack specifically for travel. I do a lot of travel for an organization I am involved with and wanted something designated for that. After I placed the order for my bag I was coming back for a trip and noticed someone board the plane with the Porter 45 I had ordered. I was shocked at how bulky the bag appeared and very surprised the airline allowed the passenger on the plane because no way was that bag going to fit in the overhead (on board a Q4). When my bag came in I was excited to go through - I opted for the teal as I wanted something other than another generic black bag. I picked the Porter 45 because although there was discrepancy of it being a carry on or not, I have traveled with it a few times and it does fit in the overhead bins. If you have things attached to the outside (think camera tripod, bulky jacket) you will have to remove. Be warned if you are packing the bag to it's absolute capacity, it looks like a gigantic bag and you are more likely to be asked to place your bag in the racks. Overall I am happy with my choice - I use this for airplane travel and road trips. It's the only bag I really need for essentials and packing light. I love the option of having it as a bag or a backpack.

I like it

Purchased two (one each) for my daughter and me for travel, not backpacking. I can't attest to long wear comfort. I like that the straps can be in use or packed away. I can carry my kid's if walking through large airport while wearing mine. She was able to independently handle/wear the pack when she took it to camp for a week. She is average sized 10YO, and the pack was large for her, but independently manageable. Plenty of hooks and the compressions straps can accommodate a wide variety. Tucked a jacket during travel, my kid had her sleeping bag for camp. For our trip, we each comfortably fit over a week's worth of clothing (wore 2x), requiring clothing for hot and cool temperatures. Jacket. Full toiletry bag. Couple books. Computer. Electronic cords. My camera gear (full sensor DSLR body, three lenses). And room for a couple souvenirs on way back. They EASILY fit in the overhead compartment. Slid righty in, no hold up trying to squeeze them in. That was a necessity as I do not like checking bags. I was worried about this, but they do meet requirements! I REALLY like the bag. The compression straps feel durable in combination with the wrap around flaps. I LOVE the open top "suitcase" style to easily pack/retrieve items. My first Osprey bag. The quality seems very nice. I expect to have for over a decade - much nicer than my last backpack that lasted for that long. Definitely plan to have for my daughter until she's an adult.

Best backpack I've owned.

I use this backpack for school and small trips. Let me tell you, it fits EVERYTHING. I have fit my laptop, iPad, chargers, calculator, pens, 4 days worth of clothes, and a few other odds and ends in that thing at once. For school, it is a little big, but honestly that comes in handy when you want to fit your binders, books, lunch, and laptop (which yes, all fit). It is very durable, sits on my hips well (my waist is 28", so that's pretty impressive it's inches down that much), and has big carry handles that make it easy to carry by hand if I'm feeling like I want to do farmer carries (the handles also make it really easy to slide off when the pack is being worn as a backpack). The only downsides are the lack of a water bottle holder and it can be a little bulky in university seating. Otherwise, I couldn't have found a better pack, or a better brand. Can't wait to use this pack's carry-on capabilities!
