Tri-Star

[Darcy]

In this thread, post a list or pictures of What You Carry in your Tri-Star (http://www.tombihn.com/page/001/PROD/500/TB0940) carry-on travel bag. We will add your packing list to the Tri-Star page to help give other people a better idea of what the bag can hold.

From my recent recent trip to Europe, a photo list (http://www.flickr.com/photos/eastercat/sets/72157620430081892/) of what I brought.

A silly thing to pack... I needed to transport a ream of A3 size paper (297 × 420 mm; 11.7" × 16.5"). For testing purposes, I loaded in three reams.

They fit in perfectly, packed in their ream wrappers and also in the lids of the boxes (for a bit of support), with room to spare.

Of course, it isn't light!

I'll be carrying my one ream plus all my other junk (a Synapse-full) home tonight for a 1 mile walk and it will be fine.

My Tri-Star and I just returned from our first trip together. The flights to and from Atlanta were completely full. On the way to ATL, if I hadn't been able to slip the Tri-Star under my seat, I would have had to check the bag. On the way back the Tri-Star made another person happy by sitting upright rather than sideways in the bin, thus allowing the guy to get his bag stowed.

I'd call this trip halfway-in-between packing. I could have done with less, but I didn't. :D

One each of a small, medium & large packing cube really made organization easy.
