how well does this bag fit in the undersea compartment on an airplane?

I don't know about the "undersea compartment", but it will fit nicely in the overhead bin/compartment. It does help to tie down the shoulder harnesses with something like a velcro strap so they don't catch on anything.

Its a bit of a struggle but its possible. However, it a tripod is attached it needs to be romoved and wedged in the side. It also depends on how much you have it filled because it needs a little squish room. But its possible, I've taken it to france and Africa with no major problems

It fits in most overhead storage bins on airplanes. On the smaller jets, you will typically have to remove the laptop in order for it to fit. It does not fit under the seat in front of you on airplanes with a laptop inside. However, it is a great backpack and I have flown to many places in the world as a diver doing underwater photography. I would buy another one if something happened to mine and recommend it to everyone.

Based on my experience-absolutely! I fly between Seattle and San Francisco monthly and always take this bag (with my purse inside so I can also take my rolling laptop case). I put in on my back and roll my laptop case in as well. It will fit under the seat as well as the overhead bin. I fly Virgin America, Alaska, and Southwest. No questions and no problems. You will not regret getting this bag.

Yes, a tad snug, but it'll fit. I fly a lot, and this is easily the best backpack I've ever owned.

Definitely. I travel with it regularly and haven't had any trouble. Fits nicely in the overhead or under the seat.

I don't have the bag handy, but I can tell you a few weeks ago I was able to fit my GoPro Pelican case, BCD, wetsuit, hood, gloves, boots, XL fins, regulator, mask, snorkel and a bunch of smaller things in this bag. It is plenty big and compresses really small when you want it to. I'm happy with it. Even with all that weight including a few soft weights, the bag still felt sturdy to me too.

Yes, it fits just fine under a seat. I've used it a few times now when flying, and there's never been a problem.

I've used this as my carry on. If it's full, it can still fit under the seat in a coach/economy section of a plane. But it puffs out a bit so it takes up some of your leg room/foot space. I am 5'1" so this didn't matter much for me and I used it as a foot rest. So it will fit, just don't stuff it to the gills.

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.

I have used this bag numerous times as my carry-on bag for flights with no problems.

Yes, this definitely fits under an airplane seat. I've taken it on three flights and haven't had any issues.

Hi Linda,I take on the plane all the time and never had a problems the 5 or so years that I've had it. It is small enough to fit in the overhead compartment with other stuff on top of it too.

Yes, I was able to fit this bag (with the wheeling part still on) under the airplane seat -- but it took up the entire space. So my feet could not go under the seat at all. That was fine for a short flight. On a longer flight, I put it overhead.

It is padded well and fits snuggly. I haven't had it on a plane, but I would think it would be all right.

Yes! I use mine for my to and from work commute with a change of clothes. It would fit under an airplane seat and follows all TSA size guidelines for carry on.

It might depend on the type of plane you are flying on. I usually fly SWA and have never had a problem fitting this bag under the seat. It works well because there are flexible bars that go over the top of the bag keeping the bag from smooshing our loved ones. I definitely recommend this bag when traveling with my cat!

Sure will, it is a big bag, it is thick and padded, has a slot for the fin. (take it off if you can when traveling) Has a big zipper and does well in the florida sun. Enjoy

It will very tight under an airplane seat. It's fairly ridged and doesn't really collapse well. The top storage compartment will prevent this. I stored in the overhead bin when traveling. I've found very little use of the side zipper compartment. I keep a few small items in it. extra lens cap, small trash bag for emergency weather protection and small micro fiber cleaning cloths. The bag does keep my equipment pretty tight. For most travel shooting, I carry a canon 60d with battery grip, 50mm, 28-55mm, 55-250mm and a few smaller accessories. I also usually carry my ipad air and 10" 2in1 laptop. both fit well within the back computer section.
