    I haven't read all of the comments so I don't know if someone has pointed this out already, but I feel like you missed a crucial feature of the first duffle bag that may help you like it more. The zippered pocket on the back in the trolley sleeve is specifically for your passport/boarding documents. It keeps those items secure because it is a zippered pocket, and also that side of your luggage is up against your body while you are in line. Also, because that is the side that's facing you, that is the most convenient pocket for them to be in. Samantha Brown puts those zippered trolley sleeve pockets in most all of the personal item bags she sells on HSN. She calls them her "peace of mind pocket".

      You are correct about the zipper area by the luggage slip side. My version of this bag also has on the other side a zipper area for my tablet with its slim case to fit so it doesn't go in the main compartment.

      ​@@shellyjay8954I got a Foldie, and I do NOT like it. There are very few pockets (I like to have a place for everything. If there isn't a place for everything, everything ends up jumbled together in the same place). More importantly, it has ZERO structure to it. It flops all over like one of those inflatable wind dancers. It ends up making my wheeled carry-on fall over constantly.

    Fantastic video! I appreciate your insights and recommendations on personal item bags for air travel. It's true that finding the right bag is crucial for maximizing efficiency and convenience. The shoulder bag you showcased seems like a great option, especially with its ideal size and ability to fit under the airplane seat. The luggage sleeve and easy-to-clean material are definite advantages. However, I understand your concern about the passport pocket lacking a zipper for added security. Thank you for sharing your experiences and insights. Your video has provided valuable information for anyone looking to choose the perfect personal item bag for air travel. Keep up the excellent work!

I picked up two of those backpacks to use as our personal items on the airplane. I purchased the pink one for me (only $30), and the black and gray one for him ($50 for some reason).

    For the first bag, simply add velcro to make the opening close so your passport won't fall out. Now you don't have to worry. You can either use iron on or the tape that already has adhesive on it.

      ETA: Most beach bags lack a trolley sleeve, which is a dealbreaker for my airport bags.

    Gak! That Brigs & Riley bag is AUD$702.32! You weren’t kidding when you said it was pricey. Personally, i always find having wheels on a small bag wastes a lot of space in the bag. All that framework takes up precious space where i could be fitting snacks & booze 😂

    I bought a Tumi 21” carry-on about 20 years ago and it has traveled around the world with me. I never check any bag when traveling & I can pack for 4 weeks in my Tumi. I have my carry-on and 1 personal item. I’m finding the Tumi is now too heavy for me to swing up in the overhead areas. I’m taking a 10 day trip to South America and just bought the American Tourister 4 Kix Expandable Softside Underseater with wheels. The size is 18” tall x 14” across x 8” wide and this is the only piece I’ll be taking for the 10 days. I’ll let you know how it works…as a senior citizen who doesn’t want to carry a backpack or over the shoulder bag

    Awww to travel in the US is the ability to travel with huge carry on and a larger personal item bag without worrying about the item being weighed and at times not even measured. You could get a dry bag from even IKEA now. It seals the wet items and keep them separate from the dried items. Also loading of laptops and tablets in the front of the bags means they topple over easily. Unless they have four wheels. Use that additional bag in checked luggage as a packing cube. Also a belt pack (bum bag) does not count as a personal item bag, but clothing. Use one of those for your passport, and place it on the belt just as you go through the body scanner. That way you can grab it quick as you get through. I have a small bag from Pantagonia for this, 1 liter size. If that bag had no pockets outside of it, I would love it. Thanks for your review I have now subscribed and liked your video. All great for the UA-cam algorithm,.

    • @The.LifeWithLori
      @The.LifeWithLori  Рік тому

      You are correct. I have never had my bag weighed or measured. However, my carry on does have to fit in the overhead bin and my personal item absolutely must fit under the seat in front of me. Outside of that - there aren't really any restrictions. Thank you for watching 😃😃😃
