Excellent point, and this is actually one of the reasons I'd like the bigger bag. I will first be taking a flight that allows the +1 personal item and was hoping to have the space to transfer the items from that bag into the bigger one (which won't be full for the first flight). There are various reasons why I will not be able to check a bag on this particular flight, and there will certainly be other occasions where I can use the larger bag (I have an upcoming flight on British Airways that allows the same dimensions, for example).
Also, I tried to seach and didn't find any suggestions for specific bags, just lots of posts verifying that those are the required dimensions. I'll keep looking around online.
