[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great as a back pack and carry on I use with the roller carry on and no waiting for luggage !!

Because I often travel with outdoor gear, I usually check bags, often out of necessity due to carryon limitations e. g. large duffles, skis, bikes. Plus, I don’t like to lug baggage through the airport especially because I usually fly two segments to get to my destination. But, luggage is sometimes delayed. This is a bigger issue when traveling internationally, such as four segments to get to Asia or Africa. The Global Carry-on holds a few days of clothes plus toiletries, meds, rain gear or a compressible down parka, snacks, and my laptop so I have the essentials. I can do a minimalist three day trip with just this bag. It can fit under the seat if needed. My wife wanted one too and loves it. Keep up the great work Osprey. (Durango, Colorado)

Epic backpack for business trips away for a few days, room for a couple of changes of clothes, smart shoes and a laptop which are kept safe and dry. Fits the overhead lockers on planes and trains helping me to travel might and get through the terminals fast, Suuuppppeeer comfy to have on your back. I LOVE IT!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only one trip but really liked it. Well organized that made it easy to fit in things for work and fitness. Comfortable carry and really like the sleeve to fit over my luggage. I'm a little concerned with how the material will wear. Would prefer to not have scuffs for business meetings.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW! This is the best Backpack I’ve ever owned. I actually don’t prefer backpacks but this one is different. Comfortable! Flexible! Light! Amazing! It allows you to use as backpack or satchel. The backpack straps stow seamlessly and the amount of pockets is astonishing…Love It!!! Looking forward to traveling with this to Tibet later this year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only thing it really could use is an external water bottle holder but it was otherwise an excellent option for a lot more space for carry-on

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We already had purchased one of these and it worked out great for our trip to the Galapagos. We have now bought another one for our next trip as I was jealous. Great size for carry on—conforms to Iceland Air carry on measurements. Love the ability to have the backpack straps, the handles and the sling. Love that it fits over the handle of our Transport 90 L wheeled duffle. I don’t care that it gets scratched up….more important for weather protection IMO.

We did a 14 day trip to Ecuador which included a one week cruise to the Galapagos. Spouse used the 90 L wheeled duffle in the Transporter line and one of the Transporter Global carry on. Turned out this was a winning combination for one person. So much so, we are buying the exact same combo for me for this year's trip to Iceland. Iceland Air has small carry on restrictions and this seems to be the ideal carry on that has backpack, handle, and carry strap for a multi-option choice and it can easily be slid onto the 90L for the ultimate wheeled experience. Loved the material as we worry about things getting wet on boats or wet climates. True, as others have said, it can look a bit beat up after the first few uses but it is very sturdy. Loved all the features for the Global...lots of storage options and works well with or without packing cubes.

I am a 62 year old female; I just went to Scotland for 13 days of hiking and exploring, and everything that I needed fit in this wonderful backpack. And I flew Icelandic Air, which has very stringent carry-on requirements. The backpack weighs less than 3 lbs, so the remaining 27 lbs was all me:blush: I can't figure out why these aren't more common!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the old global carry on which is great. I think Osprey was trying to compete with the Cotopaxi Alpa and changed the design and added backpack straps, but it didn’t work out. There’s much less interior space than before if the straps are stored and it feels clunky. If you’re always going to use it as a backpack it might work for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bag looks like it will last forever, well-built. Zippers look strong. I have not traveled with it yet but I expect that it will do the job.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have no complaints about this bag. Completely waterproof, tons of storage, sleek, elegant, amazing! I am a musician, and this backpack has plenty of space for my iPad, etude books, textbooks and other items for school.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this bag for a trip to northern Europe where it snowed nearly every day, and I did not have any issues with my clothes getting wet. Both the shoulder strap and the backpack straps are comfortable and easy to store when not in use. I was able to fit 5 days worth of clothes in there and a change of shoes, and the zipper was durable enough to zip the whole thing. It also fit in the airplane overhead bins without any issue, and might have even fit under the seat with fewer clothes or a firm shove. I highly recommend this as a carry on bag for trips of up to a week.
WalkieTalkie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this bag to be our primary carry on for flights instead of a suitcase. Used it on a 4 day trip and it held enough autumn clothes for 2 people (no shoes) with laptop and we had a 2nd bag for toiletries/in flight entertainment. With this bag we were able to walk ~8 miles touring the city before our room was ready. The front pocket is only useful for slim items and the top pocket shares the space with main compartment so it’s only as useful as you leave room for it. We liked it so much we’re replacing our second bag with another for longer trips.

Great and checked all the boxes except there was no water bottle holder.
