Important Notes
This backpack is designed for carry-on use on most domestic flights, but travelers should verify specific airline size restrictions before departure. While durable, the pack should be handled with care to maintain the integrity of the stowaway harness and zippers. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended to preserve fabric performance. The included compatibility with the Farpoint/Fairview Daypack requires the daypack to be purchased separately.
