Did this bag work good with security in airports? We have two trips coming up

Yes, there is absolutely no problem going through security with this bag. Have taken many flights and not once was it questioned.

We have only had the bag for a short time and have not flown as of yet with it. My own opion is that it would be great for security at airports. The multiple pockets are mesh with and without zippers so they would be very easy for security to see thru.

I have never taken it through security, but I don't see why it would be a problem!

I haven't been on any trips thru the airport with it yet bit I don't see any reason it wouldn't be good

I bought six of these locks and used them on my trips. I have not had any issues with the airlines nor airport security. I used them on checked bags as well and did not have to leave the keys with TSA. I have a already travelled internationally to Europe and Asia.

I used it to transport guns in checked luggage. You should use TSA approved locks and tell the airline person you are checking a firearm.

I have a different type of TSA friendly bag, and I have never been asked to take my laptop out. I have been traveling nearly every week for work for the past 8+ years to various cities around the USA so I have a pretty good range of experience at most major US airports. Whoever said they sometimes get asked to take theirs out must not have been packing it correctly.

Yes, of course you can go through airport security with this backpack! Just don't fill the water sac with water because you aren't allowed to have over 2 ounces of liquid on a plane for security purposes.

Yes, I have used it on a flight. It even fit snugly and perfectly between the seat in front and the seat it was placed on, during my United flight. Seemed very secure even before I attached the lap belt to it. Infant slept in the carseat for the entire flight :-)

I purchased two to take with us to Soth Africa and Botswana.I gave one to my wife and kept one. On the flight tp South Africa mine leaked a black oily substance onto my clothres in my checked bag. On the flight back it leaked a white viscus gel. Wiser by my firest experience I placed it in a plastic bag to protect my clothes.My wife had no problem with heres. That may be because se kept hers with his in her carry-on bag. Both worked and I'd have no reservations about buying one unless you plan to fly with it.

Yes, but make sure you have the camera in case as there is not much padding in the purse. I recently went through airport security with a full water bottle because I forgot it was in there! It holds a ton of stuff without feeling like it does.

The most recent bag I purchased did in fact add an extra pocket specifically for a tablet in one of the thinner compartments. It's in the center of the bag so it provides some good protection. There is also a compartment designed to hold a laptop and allow for "easy" security screening that might not (depending on the TSA checkpoint) require removing the laptop; just zip open the compartment for screening.

Not at all, I've travel a couple of times with this bag and had a nice experience. It's light weight, bike is secure.

Depends upon plane? I've flown to Japan with it on KLM and found it did not fit under their very roomy seat. Nor does it fit under seat for Delta domestic flight. I will tell you it is a great gear bag, it locks and protects. However, it is TOO heavy to wear on your back with 1 camera, 2-3 lenses, strobe. I've realized I must pack a lighter " around town" bag as well if I'm going to be photographing an area. That or find a chiropractor! So, use it for travel / safety of gear.

Yes. The main issue with this bag are the latches. They will break easily. Mine broke on my first trip (by TSA) but the airline did reimburse me for the bag.

Yes, took in my backpack on 4 flights so far - no problems at all with Security screening.

I've had no trouble checking the bag through or issues with the zipper. Of course, a safety strap would be a backup if you're concerned.

Yes! I used this on many flights and as long as you don't over stuff the outside pocket it will fit very well! I also loved how easy it is to remove the computer when doing the baggage check at TSA check point!

Definitely. I use it this way all the time and it has worked for both the smaller airplanes as well as the larger. It is a great bag for traveling.

We traveled a lot and used this bag for protecting the stroller. It works well.
