johnny Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Leaving for Vegas Thursday night. Clothes on my back are also my returning clothes Monday morning. Bringing - 4 shirts, 2 shorts, 1 pair of jeans (wearing on flight), 5 underwear (you never know) and 5 pair of socks. Need to fit it into my jansport backpack and stay within regulations. I would LIKE to also bring my laptop in case I need to do something for work (unlikely) but I don’t NEED it. Bringing my switch for the flight. I am essentially going to be at the tables and at march madness watch parties during my time there. This also presents a spillage problem on my clothing. I figure if I spill I can always buy one shirt if needed. Can i I make it fit or am I going to have to pay for a carry on? Going to attempt now.

Nokt Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I have a 50 liter backpack for the couple times I’ve gone backpacking across Japan. I’ve packed that thing to the teeth and haven’t been stopped and told that I can’t bring it on a flight. I’ve had it measured a few times as well to see if I’d be over the limit. I’m always super close, either just barley able to hit the requirements or just over, but I’ve never been stopped or asked. I usually pack a smaller sling backpack I have that I stick my phone charger, kindle, headphones, and whatever other smaller electronics. 50L goes up in the storage bins and the smaller stays with me on a flight.

I'm 6'1 so that doesn't fly with me, but if you are shorter or have an isle seat you could make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreatGamble Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I can pack for two weeks with a good 80l backpack. Though the only time I do that is hunting. One pair of jeans, two spare pair of underwear, two shirts, tent and sleeping bag, plus survival gear, food, and water bladders. Bino and spotting scope on a chest pack, which straps to my backpack if I gotta fly. I need very little to get by. I’m not a very materialistic person.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 I never take trips than last longer than 5 days. I always fly with just a personal bag with clothing. I hate checking bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
