I used this for a 15-day trip to Israel, Greece and Italy. Perhaps too spacious, as it allowed me to over-pack a bit! I was able to carry about 25% of my body weight, but not always easily (leaning forward while walking, difficult balance-wise on descending stairs). Security and accessibility were great. The zip-apart feature worked well for carrying onto airplanes. It's not possible to turn around in narrow spaces or sit in regular chairs while wearing the whole system.
