There are several features that make this the ideal travel pack for me. The grab handles are great, I use those all the time when I switch from the backpack to handheld as I get close to security with TSA, makes it easier to sling into an X-ray bin. Using this as a backpack is mandatory for me and this bag feels really comfortable. I also like that the waist strap is removable since I never use it. The cinch straps are also great, it's nice to compress the pack and minimize the size. Finally, the giant main compartment holds a lot, and the external compartments make it easy to quickly access items you need to get to the most. Overall the pack is well organized, feels durable and well made. My only minor critique is that it's not particularly light, but overall a really great pack.
