Perfect as carry-on for 2 weeks in Europe
I just returned from 2 weeks in Europe with this backpack! I'm 5'2" and exceptionally weak, and I was able to run the length of LGW to catch a connecting flight with this baby strapped to my back. It slid easily under the seat in front of me (stuck out a bit, but no flight attendants seemed to care) as well as in the overhead bin. Airlines flown - British Airways, Vueling, Lufthansa, Condor. Also, the top front pocket was perfect for easy access to liquids bag and headphones. I was very careless with the main compartment zipper and it got caught a few times but was easily freed, never stuck-- really appreciated that. Zippers seem to be high quality to endure all the tugging.
Below is what I packed in case you're interested. I had room leftover for small souvenirs and other purchases.
