I want this bag for airplane travel. Will it fit under an airplane seat when its fully loaded with laptop and camera?

I fly frequently with mine. I would say its fits snug under most airline seats but always fits.

I brought it on an airplane and it fit (just barely). The seat height may differ depending on the airline, but it worked for me.

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. Personally I wouldn't trust my computer in any other bag. I took it on a couple airplanes but my flight was international.

This bag will definitely work for that. It is light weight and compact. The laptop pocket is padded well enough to protect the laptop. The back pack is definitely small enough to fit in the overhead bin in an airplane. It is also light enough that it won't weigh over 15 pounds with stuff we normally carry in a plane.

I carried it on domestic flights and it fits under the seat. I had my tablet and camera in it and used both on the flights. Pulling it from under the seat and placing it back no problem. You better keep your camera with you.

I travel for a living but I have never traveled with my pack as a carry on when flying. Judging from the size of the seats and the length of the bag I can safely assume the bag will be to long to actually fit under the seat.

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.

The bag has a large capacity. So, of course, the fit depends on how much you put in it. I have not tried to take it on a plane as a carry on, so dimensions have not been tested.

Bag definitely fits in overhead bin and also under the seat in front if in a jam. It can be a bit flattened depending on the lens you have in it.

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 suppossed to be, but my experience now is that it is too big for some airplanes. I love this bag, really super excellent, but now Im thinking I will have to get a smaller one because several times now I have ended up carrying my RED-One camera body in my hands and stuffing other expensive stuff I was carrying in this bag into my smaller compuer bag. This have happened when the airplanes are rather small ones. Also, it is very easy to fill this one with so much stuff that ends up being super heavy. So I would advice you got a smaller version of the think tank bag.

Absolutely, it's smaller than a normal carry on luggage. It will fit under the seat at your feet as well. On some smaller commuter planes it won't fit in the overheads but it's always fit at my feet.

Yeah, I brought it with me to/from Korea & China and it fit just fine. I kept it under the seat of the person in front of me, not in the top compartment. However I'd be wary of how much you're loading the bag with. I was carrying about 30lbs of clothing & camera equipment and the strap ripped after about two months of continual usage. For a $60 bag it's great, but even though it looks like a $300 bag, don't expect the same level of quality. Hope this helps!

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.

It will fit. The bag holds more than my carry on if you really pack it full. I put it under my seat on plane flights and it is normally pretty stuffed. I think the bag won't disapoint you.

Yes. You should be able to adjust the pockets to accommodate the camera. I carry a Nikon D800 and 700, 3 lenses and all the accessories with no problem. The bag will fit as a carry on on flights.

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.

Yes. Its one of those backpacks that looks small, but seems to carry more then you would expect. It would fit nicely under a airline seat.

Sure, it fits under the seat just fine and if you didn't want it at some point, you could stuff it back into its pouch and carry it in your larger carry on. Works great as a supplemental under seat bag for things you need on the flight.
