You can either carry on or check luggage, so I'm not sure what you mean by 'check on'. In any case, you can certainly check this bag, usually for a fee, and you can also carry this back on the plane with you, as its dimensions are less than the 45 linear inch limit for most airlines.

Nice Day hike Pack

By:
September 25, 2010

Love this pack. I bought it for day hikes and it is just perfect. It is just the right size for a day hike. Fits my lunch, rain gear, camara, dog treats, leashes, etc. It is built like any Mountain Hardwear product is- high quality, sturdy,looks nice has lots of room,and is comfortable. And last, but not least, it is RED. my favorite color.

Nice for school

By:

Gets the job done for school. I can fit a good amount of books and papers in it and it has a notebook sleeve. Front pocket is good to stuff a jacket in. Has a nice sunglasses pocket with a soft liner. I also have been using it to put skiing stuff in. The only thing that I would change is the size, I would like it a little bigger, but it is fine for what I'm using it for.

Could this pack be versatile enough that I could use it for school?

Lucia. Absolutely. It was designed with that in mind. It even has an organizer element built in to the pack itself. Enjoy!
