Review on Think Tank Airport Navigator Messenger Bag - 75 Cm, Black (Travel And Carry With Ease) by Luckie Coonrod

Revainrating 4 out of 5

watch dimensions: my feedback

I bought this case to go to Myanmar with two Nikon FX bodies, 3 lenses including a 70-200, 28-300, and 16-35 as well as flash, small laptop,2 external drives, battery charger and many plugs, cables and adapters. My experience was as follows:PROS - build quality is excellent as one would expect from Think Tank. The split strap allowed it to be piggy-backed on my rolling suitcase. The size attracted absolutely no attention as a carryon on the international flights. The top zipper makes it easy to remove just the cameras. The external pocket worked well for airport security when I had to pull out my laptop.CONS It was too wide to roll down the plane aisle so I had to carry it sideways and try to pretend it didn't weigh very much. It was too deep to fit in the overhead bin on the Yangon Airways regional plane (approx. 80 passenger ATR 72 turboprop). Friends with an Airport International and an Airport 4-Sight had no problem. I couldn't fit it even with the laptop removed from the external pocket. I did manage to cram it under the seat with difficulty but came very close to having to hand it over to the crew to stow or check.As a result, I am going to buy the Think Tank International before I go to India and travel again on regional planes. I still really like this bag and will use it in the States.
