I take it on long trips and find that it packs just fine for my needs. Yes, it is a very heavy-duty bag, built like a tank, yet weighs only about 1lb. It has seen heavy use and taken much abuse, but still looks new. By the time I depart for home it is usually pretty full and counts as my "personal item". I have several Red Oxx bags and this is one of my favorites.
