Why We Like The Osprey Fairview 40L Backpack
Lightweight, durable, and loaded with travel-specific features, the Osprey Fairview 40L Backpack is our go-to pack when we're traveling light. The smallest pack in the women's Fairview series, the 40-liter size is carry-on compliant on most flights and features a women-specific fit for comfort. It also features a large panel zip access to the main compartment with lockable sliders—and pretty much every pocket we can imagine! That includes dual mesh pockets for bottles and quick stowables, a top zippered liquids pocket, a large zippered lower compartment, a zippered front panel stash pocket, an integrated sleeve for a laptop or tablet, and an internal front flap zippered mesh pocket. That lets us stash our life on our back for a wild weekend or an epic escape to somewhere exotic.

Great backpack
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- 40L
- Height:

This is my favorite travel backpack. It's perfectly sized as a Delta carry-on. It has the Osprey internal support system, that when properly fitted, transfers weight from your shoulders to your hips. I usually can't carry anything over a 25L pack due to an old shoulder injury but can carry this. 3 things to note - 1) it's made for a woman's body with closer shoulder straps & wider hip belt; the man's version is called Farpoint; 2) it will feel clunky if it isn't adjusted peoperly; look on Ospreys website for videos on how to adjust it; and 3) it's a little large to be an underseat personal item, but has always fit well for me in overhead bins even on regional flights.

Really clunky, bad design
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
Osprey missed the mark on this one, and should not sell such a clinker. It fails as a pack and as a carry-on. Sent it back.
