Airline compliant Carry on Backpack Online / Instore Bracknell

You can easily and safely carry a decent amount of weight on your back if you have no pre-existing medical conditions that is

The secret to carrying weight on your back is not the back size

It's the shoulder strap padding, width of the shoulder straps,

And the main one is that it would have a waist strap, it is best to take a lot of the weight of the backpack around your waist and to a lesser extent take some of the weight onto your chest with a chest strap.

Obviously this isn't a hiking rucksack and isn't going to be designed to carry a lot of weight for distances comfortably,

But something like an osprey rucksack such as the 55litre osprey farpoint trek most healthy adults without medical conditions and could easily put 5-10kg in that backpack and providing they had the strap setup property would be able to have the backpack on for hours and not be encumbered by the weight,

To say carrying things in a backpack will "break my body on the roads" is a tad dramatic mate.

Alot of backpacks are specifically designed to distribute weight across your hips and chest comfortably

Maybe not this £10 backpack, but it's a carry on and not really designed for 20kg loads is it.

Have a nice day.

You can cinch the straps down and squish it into the sizer.
Most airlines don't count, flown 8+ times this year (lucky) budget between Vueling, Wizz, Ryan and EasyJet with a large looking backpack.
Got through everytime (aside from one) without being asked to use the sizer, usually they don't care if it's a backpack unless it's a huge hiking style rucksack.
The only time I didn't was my most recent trip from Birmingham to Barcelona, asked to put into sizer, a little squeezy and it fit in perfectly.

tl:dr Don't overpack your back, wear your heaviest/biggest pieces of clothing and layer things like jumpers/jackets, don't be a target.

Oos for a good while online and at several shops though....£24 cheapest price on eBay for it now

The UK government should force airlines to have checked luggage and reasonable carry on bags included in the fare and stop this extortionate nonsense.

The joy of a soft bag is you can squish it in the bag checker, assuming it's not completely full.

Which airline ?

Not sure if you call EasyJet no frills but I've flown twice to Edinburgh and twice to Inverness in the last year with my wife's wheeled size conforming retractable handle bag and it went in the overhead rack. Also flown BA to Edinburgh and they allowed the same bag overhead and a small backpack

In stock at my local though......
