Is this carry-on friendly?

Just a little to big to fit in the airlines required carry on size. But I wish it was.

This is definitely big to be a carry on. To answer your question, no, it is not.

The Shuttle 32 is gigantic and would not be allowed as a carry-on. However, the smallest Shuttle model, Shuttle 22, is smaller and is likely suitable as a carry-on bag.

I bought a set of screw on and a set of stick-on. I've kept the stick-on in arrears in case of an emergency need as I didn't trust them with the large and heavy item they were to be affixed to. I suppose if the carry-on were light enough and if there were sufficient secure space for the adhesion, one could go at the front and one could go at the back(or either side), but wouldn't it be rather tipsy?

I purchased this as a carry on for my granddaughter. I would not subject it to the abuse that checked luggage receives. It is small enough to go under the seat in front or in the overheard compartment.

I have carried it as hand luggage in international flights (Brazil-USA, Brazil-Angola) and regional flights in Brasil.So far, no problem.

Its a great comfy bag if you have a lot of gear, but it will get heavy if you load it up all the way. It doesn't look that big on you if you yourself are somewhat big. I believe it will fit into the carry on, its smaller then the small carry on suitcase.

Yes, it is hard luggage so can be checked. I think it better for overhead carryon however.

Yes it is. It is compact and easy can be carried on or checked depending on the airline.

While I personally haven't used it as carry on, it should work fine. Check out these customer reviews:1510 Carry On Case (without foam)Good luck,Farmerkid

I have used it as carry-on. It does depend on how full it is packed, I suppose. But I had no problem.

I've not tried to carry this one on the plane, as of yet, but a I did carry on a similar-sized bag to Hawai'i with no trouble at all. I was loaded down with my camera gear, a laptop, jacket, etc. and I had no hassles.

Yes, that's why I bought it. I've carried it on many times, no problem. It is small enough it will fit any airlines carry on restrictions.

It can be carried on. I had mine at near full capacity and airline personnel accepted it as carry on luggage on international flights both going and coming, and they did not ask me to remove the backpack's metal frame. It fits well in the overhead compartment.

I think its too big for a carry on bag. I suggest you get a heavy insulated lunch bag. Maybe one that has built in gel packs

On one domestic flight I was fine; on another they insisted I "valet check" it. I did, but I wasn't thrilled. I'm sure it was stored somewhere that was way too cold. It is really too long for the standard carry-on dimensions. It's a shame because it is so narrow it takes up very little room in the overhead.

If this was a carry-on, I'd say no problem, but if it was to be checked in with other luggage, I wouldn't take that chance.

I've taken it on an airplane many times as a personal item. No questions asked. Just don't take a purse. Put the purse IN the backpack. In other words, you can have a carry on AND this backpack, no problems :-)

Short answer: no. Long answer: most likely no...If they let you carry it on it would squish into the overhead if it's not totally full. But it's longer than most carry ons.
