Some travelers never check a bag with an airline due to the potential of it being lost, damaged, or just the expensive fee. That's why packing everything into a large backpack that can fit under a seat or in an overhead bin has become increasingly popular. For those looking to take their packing skills to the next level, Amazon's No. 1 bestselling travel backpack is worth a look, and it just dropped to its lowest price ever.
The extra-large Matein Carry-on Backpack is now on sale for as low as $30—up to 35% off the normal $46 price. These bags are beloved by Amazon shoppers, with over 6,900 five-star ratings and more than 7,000 purchased in the last month alone. They're available in nine colors and are offered in three sizes, but the best deal is on the black colorway.
Matein Extra Large Carry-on Backpack in Black, $30 (was $46) at Amazon
This light and ergonomically friendly backpack weighs just 2.2 pounds and measures 19.5-by-13.5 inches, and it's perfect for holding all travel necessities. It's got pockets galore, including a front organizer pocket that is perfect for documents, tickets, or materials that need easy access, plus a double-sided main compartment that has plenty of room for clothing, electronics, or other personal items. In cases when extra space is needed, there is an expandable compartment that provides more room on the go.
There’s a lot to love about the bag, but the practicality for international travel makes it a great backpack. “Great size, very functional, good quality,” a shopper shared on Amazon. “Purchased for a two-week trip in Europe. Super easy to carry on and off transportation…Volume was great for the duration of the trip. Pockets and compartments are very handy. Opens like a suitcase, which makes accessing the contents a breeze."
Others say the shape of the backpack was also a major selling point. "This has much more room than a traditionally shaped backpack," another shopper shared. "It holds as much as a small suitcase but has straps to keep it compressed and was very comfortable to carry…We had no problem fitting it into an airplane overhead compartment next to our carry-on suitcase, and alternatively, it fits easily under a plane seat while leaving some legroom."
If summer travel is in your future, having a go-to backpack that can keep up with the craziness of airports and train stations is a must, and Matein's extra-large Carry-on Backpack is one that's been proven to be up to the challenge. Make sure to take advantage of the savings now, because the price will inevitably go back up.
