Best Travel Backpacks: AIRBAC

June 11, 2013 By Angie 2 Comments

AIRBAC travel backpacksAIRBAC sent me one of their travel backpacks for review.  My review here is 100% completely my own.

The AIRBAC backpacks have a patented air support system. It helps you feel like you are carrying half the weight. AND it works!  Like the site says, it does rest nice and comfy on your waistline no matter what size you are, totally adjusts to a customized fit.

A couple years ago I stopped carrying bags (over the shoulder, backpack, etc.) when traveling because I was having some neck/back issues.  Since then I have been using a rolling bag and although I love it, the odd shape makes it a struggle to lift and put in the overhead bins on the airplane.

AIRBAC has bags for everyone.  They have business bags, school bags and travel bags.

Here’s some info on a few of their bags:

AIRBAC™ Curve – is a kid friendly, easy-to-use backpack. This AIRBAC™ is built on convenience and can be used as a go-to option for a quick sports getaway.

AIRBAC™ Groovy – is a best-seller among all ages. This unique option is suitable for any occasion and its simplicity is perfect for day-to-day activities.

AIRBAC™ Journey – is a large, everyday backpack, great for outdoor adventures and last-minute travel. With extra storage space, this bag is perfect for holding all of your travel and sporting essentials.

I have one of their Ring travel bags.  The reason I chose this one to review over the Journey is because although they look almost similar, the Ring travel backpack fits a larger laptop (17 inch) whereas the other one fits a smaller one.  You can read details about each bag on their website.

The first thing I did when it arrived was made sure that my laptop, iPad and other electronics fit well with all my other work stuff I needed to pack in there like folders, notebook, journal, etc.  It holds a lot and I probably over packed it!

I just took it on a 2 week trip to Oklahoma and it worked out really well.  It was so comfortable to carry/wear walking through all the airports I went through.  Most people would probably NOT pack as much as I did in it.

I even had to pack it up one day to prepare for a tornado (that was interesting and another story I will share here on the blog) and it was easy to grab and go into the tornado storm cellar.

I’ll be taking it on two more upcoming trips and now wish Kev had one too since he has some back issues.  He could probably pack all he needs for 6 days in this one backpack.  I need to learn how to pack lighter that is for sure.

Anyway…..I would say these are the best travel backpacks I have ever come across and would highly recommend them.

Here’s a quick video on the AIRBAC technology and how it all works:

Happy shopping!  They are also featured on the Today show, other news stations and more media.

Hopefully you’ll give them a try!

Instagram post 2191130946844397331_1417576950 We pretty much stayed off social last week while away visiting my family for Thanksgiving. It was great to see everyone including 3 adorable babies we hadn’t met yet, one just about 3 weeks old 🍼. We stayed at the @bestwestern plus in Brazil, Indiana. We are truly impressed with this brand. Good customer service and nice hotels 🏨 👍 #hotelstay #hotelstays #bestwesternhotel #bestwesternplus #brazilindiana #hotelreview #roadtrip #familyroadtrips #travelgram #mytravelgram #mytravelgrams #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #familyblogger
Instagram post 2185195540428749605_1417576950 Looking back at that time we won the @marriotthotels beach blogger trip to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. It was SO awesome. We did a lot while we were there but one of the things that stands out to me the most was our swim with Omar, the sea lion at Coral World Ocean Park @coralworldvi. We got to touch, dance and play games with Omar and I LOVED every minute of it. The Sea Lion Swim experience is something I’ll never forget. We would love to return to St. Thomas and St. John one day💕. @usvihta #usvi #stthomas #tourism #coralworld #coralworldstthomas #usvihta #usvirginislands #virginislands #sealionswim #travelblogger #travelbloggerlife #travelphotos #travelpics #travelgoals #neverstopexploring
Instagram post 2183876942477378337_1417576950 Today we celebrated our son and daughter in law’s birthdays with a fun day out with them & our grandson Hunter. The escape room was a big hit. Kev and I had never been to one but Tyler and Tiffany go a lot. We definitely would not have been able to do it without them and a couple clues😉 we highly recommend 60 to Escape in Gurnee Mills Mall, Gurnee IL. We would definitely go back. Have you ever been to an escape room? #escaperoom #escaperooms #60toescape

Hubby is unable to get away due to work obligations and we are really craving a getaway something fierce.

Instagram post 2164047998307768627_1417576950 This is beautiful. Too bad it’s not in our neighborhood. Or maybe it’s good because you might get these pics every day😉 #fallishere #fallinillinois #falltime #enjoyillinois #illinoislife #illinoisblogger
Instagram post 2154005443281139170_1417576950 Back from an overnight in Centralia, IL where we went for a family reunion. We stayed in a suite at the @bestwestern Plus hotel and it was great. Two years old, so clean and the room was REALLY nice (clean, beautiful decor, large bathroom, living room space, friendly staff plus cookies at the front desk). There was a pool & fitness room and a nice breakfast offering. Very impressed. Would highly recommend @bestwestern plus #hotel #hotelroom #hotelstay #hotelstays ##centraliaillinois #bestwesternhotel #bestwesternplus #hotelroomtour #hotelroomreview #hotelreview #mytravelgram #roadtrip #familyroadtrips #travelgram #mytravelgram #mytravelgrams #travelblogger ##lifestyleblogger #familyblogger
Instagram post 2151737059734512104_1417576950 This past weekend was our last camping ‘trip’ of the year I think. It was chilly and rainy. But as usual we made the best of it. I have lots of blog posts to write about our camping shenanigans this year 😋 we learned a lot, bought a TON of camping gear & accessories and had a blast. Kev is now in search of a very cool inflatable tent. It’s only $1,000 😂 We have seen it anywhere from $600-$1000 but only in the UK so far. Maybe @campingworld @colemanusa has tips on finding the Coleman 6 Man Fastpitch Air Valdes tent XL😉 Do you love camping? Where is your favorite place to go camping?

Instagram post 2148878168432776778_1417576950 The tarp was such a great idea (I had researched tips on how to stay dry tent camping. I have so many camping blog posts to write😉 we stayed pretty dry during the rain this weekend but it was chilly. First time with the tarp, but could do better. Last fun camping trip for this year unless we get really brave & head back out😋 What are your best tips on staying dry while camping? #greatoutdoors #livelifeoutdoors #outdoorlife #outdooradventures #exploremore #getoutdoors #optoutside #getoutside #adventure #campingout #campingseason #campinghacks #campingwithfriends #campingwithkids #takemecamping #campingweekend #campingvibes #campvibes #campingadventures #campinggear #campingtrip #campingfamily #campground #ourcamplife #happycamper #happycampers #enjoyillinois #illinoisblogger #illinoislife #chicagoland
