The ear cups don't fold flat on my headphones. They're in the stuff sack just as they are in the first photo.

Looks like the size 2 Travel Stuff Sack is perfect for a set of full-size headphones. Sorry for the poor quality photos but you get the idea:

It's a tight fit, but it works fine.

One of the Travel Stuff Sacks might be perfect for the headphones. I just received a Size 3 and a Size 2 stuff sacks, I'll try to dig out some full size headphones and see if the #3 works with them....

A couple of notes:
1) I don't think the Id will hold the size 4Z braincell for a 15" MBP. If you're OK with carrying the computer in a size 4Z cache, then you'd be OK.
2) Others have suggested the...

Backpack, to try out knives check out Williams-Sonoma or Sur la Table. W-S will let you try all of the knives and they sell open stock for most so you don't have to buy the whole set.

As for...

I posted some photos of what I packed in a Tri-Star for a trip in 2011 here. There are some other photos/lists in that thread as well as other threads with Aeronaut packing lists in that forum.

Get an Absolute Shoulder Strap to go along with your new bag and ditch the wheels. I go on about six two-week international business trips each year carrying only my Tri-Star and a Super Ego. I've...

One just came up on ebay here.

Good luck!

I travel with a TriStar + Super Ego (or sometimes Buzz) and it works very well.

The nice thing about this combo is that the TriStar will fit under the seat of most regional jets and I can then...

It really depends on the airlines that you will be flying.

In my experience:
- US Legacy Carriers (AA, UA, DL) - You will be OK
- British Airways - You'll be fine as long as you don't...

Thanks, Maria. The Indigo/Solar combination is nice (I was sad to see it go).

I'm also traveling with my Super Ego which holds my MacBook and other electronics (maybe I'll do a packing list for...

I'm in the middle of a 9 day trip and I remembered take some photos as I unpacked my Tri-Star at the hotel.

Here's the Tri-Star fully loaded:...

You should have plenty of room for the DSLR and a couple of lenses (plus a whole bunch of other stuff). You'll need some kind of insert to keep things from banging around though.

Just wanted to provide an update. I've returned from my first trip using the Super Ego/Tri-Star combo and I had no trouble carrying both on board with both AA and British Airways.

Here's a photo...

You're KILLING me! Will there be in RFID blocking organizer wallet as well?

I rarely use my Tri-Star with a laptop. That's what the Buzz or Super Ego are for!

The middle compartment does not open fully; the zippers go about 3 or 4 inches down the sides. I often use the...

edj,

The buzz would fit your original list of items. That's basically what I've packed in mine and there's room to spare (you could get a Kindle and a P&S camera also without a problem).

The...

I've just posted my Ristretto 13 in Black/Steel (purchased in May 2010) on eBay. Have to make room for the Super Ego that will house my new 15" MBP!

Thanks!

mjb - Thanks for the photo. The Super Ego is just a little taller than the Empire builder, but since the S-E is less structured, I think it should fit in a similar space.

jlee - Thanks to you as...

Reviving an old thread to hopefully get some additional advice. I'm a OneWorld Alliance traveller, so my usual airlines are AA and British Airways.

I'm oscillating between buying an Ego or Super...
