Customers like the portability of the backpack. They say it works well as a carry-on on airplanes, and is the perfect size for travel. It's super easy to take anywhere, and it's great for using when traveling between destinations. The padding all around was helpful to transport fragile gifts, and the backpack is excellent. It easily slipped into the overhead compartment on all their flights, and even fit in the tiny luggage. It is very spacious and packs well if you use packing cubes.

The BEST bag for lightweight international travel
5 Stars
The BEST bag for lightweight international travel
I read about this bag on a couple travel blogs where it received high praise. I figured it was worth a shot since it was on sale on Amazon with a free Prime return.First Impressions:My first surprise was at how small it was coming out of the box, and I was unsure how much it would actually fit because of the oblong shell shape. I had read that it is undersized for the carry-on limits for airplane travel - even on international flights, where the dimension restrictions are even smaller - but it still seemed too small. The second surprise came when I did the test pack and it just kept swallowing everything I had planned on packing. I figured I would have to buy compression bags to make this thing work, but they were unnecessary. The shape is a little strange, but once I figured out the best way to balance my bulky items (shoes, toiletry kit, etc), I actually opened up more space than I needed. After playing with all the straps and carrying configurations, I decided to keep it.In Use:This bag did everything I needed it to do on a two week trip to Italy. It easily slipped into the overhead compartment on all my flights, and it even fit in the tiny luggage racks above the seats on all the trains. The backpack straps and waist band adjusted easily to balance the weight. It was more comfortable to wear it when we were waiting in line at airports and train stations than to take it off and set it down. When we got to our gates and terminals, the straps quickly zip into their compartment, and the single shoulder strap clips in even faster. The single shoulder strap isn't comfortable for longer durations, but was perfect for the short amount of time while boarding/disembarking, and makes the bag easy to navigate those tight space (I hate when people carry backpacks or purses behind them and slap everyone down the aisle).The compression straps do a great job not only keeping everything in place, but also adding a layer of security. The exterior straps are mounted by another layer of ripstop fabric that encases all the zippers, making them difficult to locate and access while strapped down tightly. This costs you a couple seconds and extra effort if you need to get into the bag while you're on the go, but there is no way for someone to easily get into the bag while out of sight on your back without you knowing. The zippers are paired, so you can lock them with a small padlock if that's your thing.Summary:Osprey hit the mark when they designed this bag. If you like to travel light and agile, you will enjoy this bag. It won't top the ease and accessibility of a rolling suitcase in an airport, but it's close. For someone who was traveling to remote areas and old cities, having everything off the ground was much easier 99% of the time (verified after watching my friend pull his suitcase half a mile, uphill, on cobblestones).I paired my Farpoint 40 with a much smaller ripstop bag (for easy under seat access on flights/trains and short excursions away from our airBnBs) and it was perfect: Gonex Ultra Lightweight Packable Backpack Hiking Daypack Handy Foldable Camping Outdoor Travel Cycling Backpacking(Red)If I didn't need it I could easily stuff it into my larger bag. Both pictured here while waiting for my wife as she shopped for a purse in the Venice airport. The comfort and utility were worth looking like a doofus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome backpack but probably bigger than you expect.
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2021
Took this on a week trip to New York, flying with Spirit Airlines. I was able to fit 6 shirts, three pants, 4 underwear, 4 socks, electronic accessories, a jacket, umbrella, osprey day lite pack, and a few pins and shirts I brought back from NYC. Straps and hip belt distribute weight VERY well. As good or better than my Lowepro camera backpack (also the manufacturer of Lowe Alpine packs) in regards to weight distribution.

It unfortunately does not fit in the Spirit personal item box very well (I bought it because I saw a photo online of someone having it fit in the personal item box- it actually may have been the smaller women's version that fits), but Spirit didn't charge me for it nor pulled me aside or anything on both flights. It does fit under the seat on Spirit, but of course it's a little tall so it sticks out.

The straps are really comfortable but the hip belt is even better.. I had to walk around for about 4 hours before we could check into our Airbnb around NYC.

Unfortunately, I didn't feel safe putting my laptop in the laptop compartment when the main area of the back is full. I returned it for this reason and of course the length is a little long in case any budget airlines decide to pull me to the side to check in my bag.

I will likely be getting the smaller 30L Porter for my next trip as it has a laptop space in the main compartment rather than the middle compartment that the Farpoint does.

Awesome backpack if you are willing to possibly pay the carry-on fees or maybe you'll be lucky just using it as a personal item on budget airlines.

This is an amazingly good bag! The only problem I have with it is remembering where the pockets are! It easily takes my large laptop, plus a ton of other stuff, and at the moment I’ve even got a small rucksack filled inside of it (my day bag) been able to hide away being able to cover the the straps is good at times and like everything on it it’s really pretty easy and quick to do. It’s just so well designed and made. Used on this trip as cabin luggage as it weighs very very little and I needed as much capacity as I could get.
