Osprey Farpoint 40 Travel Pack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great carry-on/travel pack that integrates well with my little Fairview daypack. Allows me to carry all of my gear comfortably while globetrotting

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall great backpack - comfortable, fills a ton, and has some neat features like the small pocket on the hip belt and the zippable back panel cover. Typical amazing Osprey quality. There are, however, ways it can be made better. 1. The lid has a curve to it, allowing you to pack up an inch or two above the main cavity and still be able to close it. The issue with that is that it becomes hard to estimate how much space you have to pack. It would have been better to make the sides come up higher and have the lid be a flat piece without its own volume. 2. Only one side of the hip belt has a small pocket. It would have been nice to see one on both - maybe a mesh pocket on one side and a zipper pocket on the other. 3. The front water bottle holder area is pretty useless if the bag is packed out. Since it's not stretchy at all and competes with the main area for volume, if you pack the bag full, there's no way to fit a water bottle. Also, the design of having two openings for the same pocket means that two bottles will hit each other on the bottom. They should have just put a standard stretchy water bottle pocket on the side, and then had the front pocket be stretchy and openable via a clasp (instead of being stitched at the top), allowing it to be a stretchy dump pocket for any random item. 4. Since the bag is curved, it holds less than if it was more box shaped. They could have reduced the curve and allowed the bag to fit more, while still being within carry on limits. If those four items were fixed, this would be a perfect bag.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just took my first trip with the pack. It worked great as carry-on luggage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a great pack! It fits the airline dimensions for a carry-on bag, it’s quite spacious and works great a a pack to hike with (good hip belt and lots of adjustable straps). My husband and I had Osprey 60L packs that we lived out of for a year while we were traveling and loved. These are very similar but better for hiking (breathable back panel, and more pockets), and now fit the smaller airline size limits for carry-on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't think I was able to pack enough. I thought the space was poorly designed, and there were absolutely very few pockets on the outside. Also, the zippers were insanely difficult to use because there is a huge overlapping piece of cloth that goes over the zipper tracks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. Comfortable. Wish there was more robust loops on arm straps for hanging a small backpack on the front instead of relying on the plastic buckles.

Great size for my trip and the adjustable straps very comfortable.
