Will this backpack qualify as carryon luggage--either under the seat or in the overhead--for most commercial airlines?

yes it will fit in overhead lockers.. more of an issue on the short haul aircraft, for example LA to Sacramento where the aircraft are narrow.

We had it in a checked-in baggage and that was fine. I don't know about carry-on.

It fit in the overhead compartment. Too big for underseat. Had to check it in on smaller comuter flight

Perfectly! I just flew round trip last week and the backpack was perfect under the seat! I have early enjoyed using it.

Probably. Maybe. The reason I'm not definitive might depend on the airline. It could be a carry-on by size from what I can see (very close). If you look at the specifications for size and compare with an airline chart online, that might help. Hate to tell you definitively, since I don't know and don't work for an airline.

The backpack, when filled, is small and would easily qualify as a carry on item on any airline. I use the backpack for bicycle riding in the northwest during the winter when it can rain at any moment. It keeps my stuff dry, no matter how bad the weather gets. Lastly, I intend to use this bag as a waterproof liner inside another small backpack to protect cameras, etc when I take an international trip later this year. I will be carrying it onto the airplane with me.

I'm not sure. It may not be within regulation. Just look online for your specific airline .... they should have a carryon chart.

Having done a fair amount of flying, I can tell you it would probably fit but it is too large to be considered a "carry on". If the pack was only half full and you were able to compress the bag then it might work.

Yes. It is fully collapsible and I don't see why it wouldn't fit in an overhead luggage compartment. You might need to read the luggage rules of the airline you are using...

Yes. It's a great pack but it's HUGE. I fell it's too big for everyday activities. Good for travel but some airlines will have check it in as it doesn't always overhead.

Yes, it fits overhead. It's just slightly larger than the average backpack. I put it under the seat.

I've had this on the plane with me several times and never had a problem with it being a carry on. It fits under almost all seats on the plane too.

Hi Shannon, yes! This case will fit in the overhead compartment. You just need to verify with your airline what the weight restrictions are as well as confirm the dimensions allowed as well.

It will fit in the overhead, but it is not exempt from being a carry on bag

Yes, this will fit in most overheads. It's only slightly bigger than a regular backpack when fully loaded.

It should be fine as a carry on but might may be a bit bigger than some of the overhead bins. Id have to double check the exact length

I took it on a couple airplanes but my flight was international. When going from USA to Europe it fit in the overhead compartment no problem... On the domestic flight I can't honestly remember if it fit above me or under me... but if it doesn't then they usually take it and put it underneath (not with checked luggage just with other carry on bags that are too big to fit in the overhead compartment). I've done a lot of flying with a carry on more bulky then this and never had a problem.. So to answer your question I would think you will be ok with flying with it.
