Generally no, and taking a backpack this large through TSA is a pain (especially if secondary screening is involved).Save yourself a giant headache by just checking the damned thing.The restrictions have become a bit more relaxed recently. This is the guide I use: "Each passenger is restricted to carrying only one item through the airport search point with a maximum size of 56cm x 45cm x 25cm and a maximum weight of 18kg (40lbs), including wheels, handles and external pockets. Other bags, such as handbags, may be carried within the single item of cabin baggage." This converts to 22in x18in x10in. Using this guide the Primero 60 would not fit the carry-on restrictions. I would, however double check with your airlines prior to departure.
