TSA PreCheck vs. Global Entry vs. CLEAR+: Which Is Best for European Travellers?
Discover how TSA PreCheck, Global Entry and CLEAR compare, and learn which airport security options are worth considering for European travellers.
Travel backpacks with padded laptop storage, quick-access pockets and comfortable straps for commutes and cabin carry.
Travel and business backpacks may seem different, but they share the same purpose: to keep your gear well-organized and easy to tran
Start with how much you carry. The Platinum® Elite Slim Backpack holds 16 litres, the Travelpro® Altitude™ Medium Expandable Laptop Backpack 25-30L holds 25 litres before expanding, and the Travelpro® Altitude™ Large Expandable Laptop Backpack 30-36L holds 30 litres and expands for longer trips. Each product page lists capacity and overall size in centimetres.
Put your laptop in the padded sleeve first: the Travelpro® Altitude™ backpacks and the Maxlite® Laptop Backpack fit laptops with screens up to about 41 cm. Keep chargers and power banks in an outer pocket, since power banks must travel in the cabin, and pack heavier items close to your back. The Maxlite® Laptop Backpack also has a rear strap that fits around the handle of a Rollaboard® or spinner suitcase.
Platinum® Elite backpacks carry the Travelpro® 10 Year Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, on top of your statutory legal guarantee. Other backpacks are covered against defects as shown on our Warranty & Repair page, which also explains how to start a repair request.
On most airlines a backpack travels as your personal item under the seat, alongside a cabin bag in the overhead bin. Slimmer options such as the Platinum® Elite Slim Backpack (40 x 30 x 15 cm) and the Travelpro® Altitude™ Slim Expandable Laptop Backpack 20-24L (41 x 34 x 20 cm) take up less room. Budget carriers can be strict about second-bag sizes, so check your fare's personal item dimensions before you fly.
Backpacks bought on eu.travelpro.com can be returned within 14 days of receipt. They must be new, unused and in re-sellable condition, with the original packaging and labels attached. Request your return through our return form, and once it is approved we email you a prepaid return label. See the refund policy for details.
