BACKPACKS

1. Put your heavy items (usually laptops) close to your body to bring the backpack closer to your center of gravity and carry the weight.
2. Place your medium-weight items (usually clothes) at the vertical top of your backpack
3. Place the lightweight items, at the vertical bottom of your backpack.

To use a backpack as a flight bag, you'll need to make sure it falls at or below 22 x 14 x 9 inches, which is the maximum size for a carry-on. All Tote&Carry backpacks fall within this size range and can be used as carry-ons.

It depends on your needs, but keep in mind that the maximum carry-on size is 22 x 14 x 9 inches. Anything at or below that size that comfortably fits your essentials is the best size for you.
