What are the exact dimensions?

It measures 31 x 41 x 16 cm. It weighs 2 kg and holds 25 litres.

Can I bring this on the plane in addition to a cabin bag?

On most airlines a bag like this travels as your personal item, stored under the seat, alongside a full-size cabin bag in the overhead bin. Budget carriers can be strict about second-bag sizes, so check your airline's personal item dimensions to confirm. Our airline guide lists cabin bag rules by carrier.

How much does it hold?

The listed capacity is 25 litres at 2 kg empty.

Will it fit my laptop?

Yes, the padded sleeve fits laptops up to 16 inch (about 40.6 cm) screens. That covers virtually every mainstream laptop: the 16-inch MacBook Pro, MacBook Air 13 and 15, Dell XPS up to the XPS 16, Microsoft Surface Laptop, and 14 to 16 inch ThinkPad models, plus anything smaller. Screen size is the guide; a slim sleeve or case on the laptop usually still fits.

Does it have RFID protection?

Yes. The ID TheftBlock™ pocket is RFID-blocking, shielding passports and cards from wireless skimming while you travel.

Is it water resistant?

Yes. The exterior fabric has a DuraGuard® coating that resists water and stains, so it holds up to rainy pavements and daily wear.

How do I make a warranty claim or get repairs?

Start a claim through our customer contact form with photos of the issue and your proof of purchase, or make sure your product is registered in our database. If the issue is covered, Travelpro will repair the bag, replace the defective part, or replace the bag with a product of comparable value. You can also verify the coverage for your collection on our Warranty & Repair page.

How do I clean and care for it?

Use a 50/50 mixture of alcohol and water, apply with a soft cloth, and gently rub the affected area until the spot lifts. Let the bag air dry completely before storing. A little lemon juice in the mixture freshens the fabric.

What warranty does this come with?

Travelpro products are covered against defects in materials and workmanship, on top of your 2-year legal guarantee of conformity under EU law. See our Warranty & Repair page for the coverage that applies to this product, plus a 14-day free returns period if you change your mind.

Reviews

I have only been using

"I have only been using this bag for a few weeks. I am an attorney that still carries physical files. It is the roomiest over the shoulder bag I have ever owned and now I only have to lug one briefcase instead of two to court. the briefcase is heavier than I anticipated. but not a dealbreaker. The three things I would change is having a bigger pocket on the outside, an offset strap so the bag would hang evenly regardless of how you pick it up and better storage for the handles, one disappears easily and the other one does not. My first briefcase, a Hartmann lawyer's bag still sits by me. I carried it for several decades. Unfortunately, the over the shoulder bag rendered it obsolete. We now need both hands to juggle coffee, phones and umbrellas. Is this Altitude bag perfect? No, but it as close to perfection as a manufacturer will ever get for my needs."

Product was too small.

"The case was too small, and I sent it back. Return was easy. Thanks."

Perfect Companion

"Great bag! I transitioned from the Backpack to the briefcase to make it easier to attach to my roller. Mission accomplished! Lots of room and lots of pockets. Great bag so far!!"

— Joe S. (5/5)

My TravelPro Altitude

"The bag looks classy, though the use of a different material where the zip runs gives a very peculiar look!! The handle on the bag tends to roll up,and the handles are very thin. Space inside is adequate enough."

— arun n. (5/5)

Excellent work and travel bag

"This replaced my regular laptop bag for work every day. Despite being larger and having way more room, it is lighter than my last bag. It fits my 16” MacBook Pro and 13” iPad Pro very well and keeps them safe door to door. The expanding portion will be a huge help in short business travel that I have planned soon. The number of organizational pockets and sleeves is outstanding! I really like the cell phone slot in the front - it makes it very handy in winter when pockets are covered up with winter wear."

— Chadi (5/5)

They thought of everything!

"This is great piece of luggage! The material is substantial but still relatively light. The inside is really soft and protective for your electronics. Plenty of thoughtful storage and organizational features make this a useful piece for travel. The extra pockets, daisy chain and expandable size make the bag really useful for more than just business travel. The tracker pocket is a great touch. If there was one suggestion, it would be an outside pocket for a water bottle or umbrella."

— Robert (5/5)

Altitude bag

"I like this bag very much. It is well made and it matches my existing luggage in color and style. The zippers are high quality and the bag is lightweight but strong. I carry a laptop, papers and everyday personal items when traveling locally or flying. There are plenty of usable pockets and storage areas and it is easy to keep things organized. I will be using this bag on a monthlong trip this Summer as my briefcase, It will be a nice addition to my luggage choices."

— David (5/5)

Perfect Bag for Business Travel

"This bag has all of the features a business traveler could need. From the expandable zipper to the interior organization compartments, this bag checks all of the boxes. I am especially impressed by the durable material and high quality production. Would recommend this to anyone carrying business materials or even to leisure travelers who want to have electronics or documents with them."

— Brad (5/5)

New Favorite Travel Bag

"I have been using a backpack when I travel for quite a while now but will be switching to this one. It has plenty of space for my laptop, electronics and travel gear and lets me organize it better than a backpack. I love the front pockets, one is zippered and secure but the small front one that has the magnet seal is perfect to throw my phone in when going through security. I am so happy it wraps around my suit case handle. I don’t think I would use another bag that didn’t have that. The only thing I wish it had was a little space on the side to hold a water bottle. If it had that, this would be the perfect bag."
