Review: Great sturdy travel bag! - Love this bag. This is a sturdy bag with a good amount of space for a weekend getaway or to carry onto an airplane. I bought this specifically as a carryon for an airplane trip. The carry on I had used to fall off my roller suitcase all the time and it made me crazy. This one does not. The only negative is that it didn't fit well under the seat in front of me. I expected it to do that but it seems they changed the seats since my last flight and they were so low to the floor that it stuck out. It was sticking out but I hid it from the flight attendants. (don't tell on me!). I used this bag as a weekend bag because it seems like it has so much room for 2 days full of my stuff. I especially like the longer strap for carrying it on my shoulder. I used to have Travelpro luggage back in the day, so I trust this brand to be well made and long lasting. Would have liked other color options but I got the "pinkish' one. Sort of mauve. Not really an issue in buying the bag. ## Features - COMPACT & LIGHTWEIGHT: Ultra-lightweight carry-on tote designed to slide under most major airline seats.

Haha! Now, if there had been Biscoff cookies.... In all seriousness, I’m sure you weren’t really looking for an answer, but outside of some imposter’s...or sloppy factory worker’s pretzels, this bag is pretty hard to beat for a carry-on. Hope you enjoy it! **Q: Does this bag separate sections or dividers inside?** A: Yes, it has one mesh zippered pocket on one side. Approx 10w x 8h x 2.5d. Otherwise, inside bag is open. **Q: Will this bag act as a carry on on American Airlines?** A: It would fit Delta airlines. But sadly my bag arrived the day before my flight with the zippers stuck! I had to return it. American Airlines information "for a personal item must fit under the seat in front of you. Not to exceed 18 x 14 x 8 inches." **Q: has anyone used this on air canada or west jet?** A: I’ve used it to Canada but on Delta - Canadair. It fit under my seat. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lightweight Travel Tote *by H***D on January 6, 2025* I recently purchased this Lightweight Travel Tote as a gift for my family, and here's my detailed review: The pink color of the tote is cute and stylish, making it an appealing choice for both travel and everyday use.

And very lightweight. Fits nicely on the handle of other travel pro luggage. And great color. Shipping was quick. The seller packaged this inside the suitcase I ordered, which I thought was a great way to do it rather than getting two separate boxes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Lightweight Underseat Carry-On Travel Tote, Overnight Weekender Bag - Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Lightweight Rolling Underseat Tote Upright 2 Wheel Bag, Men and Women, Black, 16-Inch - Travelpro Maxlite Softside Lightweight Women's Carry-On Tote Bag, Fits up to 16" Laptop, Work School Travel, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/63540898-maxlite-5-soft-tote](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/63540898-maxlite-5-soft-tote) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
