I use the BrightLine B4 Swift with the J hook handle. Though in hindsight I should’ve gotten the B7 Flight. It does the job albeit it’s a little restrictive at times. As one user put it once you find a place for your stuff it stays there.

Tom Bihn bag is nice too. Has a center section for water or wet umbrella that has a drain hole. https://www.tombihn.com/products/pil...nt=17658166535

I have this bag. It's just large enough for the company iPad, my 12" MacBook in the Tom Bin neoprene case, and a headset. So large enough for all the essentials, but not large enough to put the scooby snack in when I leave the plane.

I have a north face backpack. 90% of crew force wears backpacks so we have a free hand going up air stairs. I was on IOE when my LCA strongly encouraged me to ditch the flight bag for backpack.

Dirty Purple - Thanks for passing along the discount. Ordered my Eagle Creek bag today and looking forward to not only getting the weight off my back from my overstuffed backpack but also looking more like an airline pilot.

Maybe now the uniform police will also stop giving me the evil eyes by not having a backpack on my shoulder? But then again, that was the reason I have been using a backpack all this time. Will miss that little jab to the man!

I second Everki. I have the Versa. It’s smaller but I’m able to fit everything I need in it and it’s heavy duty.

You can slide it over your suitcases handles either upright, or sideways. I’ve had several folks ask me where I purchased it. When you look at it on the ebags website you can scroll down a bit and watch a video that tells everything about it. It’s on sale now too!

I don’t think it would fit. I measured the AC garage and it is 10” wide, 2.75” tall, and 4.25 depth. I’m planning to purchase a David Clark DC Pro X and will carry that in one of the main compartments with no problem.
