Love it!

I bought this backpack, the Thule’s Aion 40L a few weeks ago and test drove it. Here’s what I found. This backpack meets both the carry-on requirements of both domestic and international overhead bin measurements . It fits nicely on the overhead compartments of Aer Lingus and Delta Airlines on my recent trip to Scotland. It packs nicely with ample room for my clothes for 9 days. You can hold a lot of stuff in this backpack and it’s very comfortable to carry as a backpack. I got the Nutria color and love the waxy look!

Nifty travel pack.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a travel bag this accomplish a good amount and I'm fairly happy with it. It is able to fit up to 40L - whatever that means. for me it means 1 pairs of jeans, 1 pair of joggers, 2 shorts, 3 shirts, 4 pairs of socks, and 4 pairs of boxers. It doesn't feel overly stuffed. It has nice retention clips as a water tightish bag that can put wet items into for storage. I have the thule covert bag and the zipper pulls are nicer. These are just a rubber seal around the rope tie. The covert has a very textured plastic tie that should be on all their bags.
Overall pretty happy with it as a weekender bag. Works for my usage and happy to recommend it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased the black/charcoal version. This is a great carry on pack that is versatile and not to much to manage once you reach your destination. The bag has room and depending on how bulky your items are can carry quite a bit but be cautious not to overpack as it will not fit without extreme force in smaller planes overhead. The ONLY thing I would cautious buyers is the look of the bag after use and when you receive it. The texture THULE mentions of having a weathered look if factual and when you use it will get more "weathered". The look is not bad just looks like you have used the bag for multiple trips after your first one. If you expect the bag to have a "fresh" look all the time this is not the bag for you. Durability is excellent, definitely recommend it.

Plenty of space for clothes and my important items

Verified Purchase:Yes
Just purchased a Thule Aion and used it for my recent short trip. As I live in Hawai’i and enjoy traveling to the mainland and foreign countries such as Japan, Italy, etc. I wanted a big enough backpack that can accommodate jackets, etc. for colder weather so I can wear them as soon as I arrive at my destinations. This backpack has multiple slots and pockets for my iPad, iPhone, chargers, keys, passport, pen, etc. I can easily get them out. I have four other backpacks, but this one is so far the best one for my short and long trips. Would highly recommend it for avid travelers.

Fantastic Travel Backpack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really fantastic backpack for traveling. I got this with the intention of using it for air travel, and this definitely fit the bill. It is so comfortable to wear while walking around, and is so much more convenient that using a rolling suitcase or a bag with a shoulder strap. It fits easily in an overhead bin, even while packed full. It has many compartments, including one for a laptop or other screen electronics. It also has a plastic waterproof compartment that I use for liquid items. It has enough room to carry a change of clothing along with many additional items, and could easily function as a weekend bag, or for someone who may not wish to check a bag at the airport. It is a well made and very sturdy backpack that I would recommend to anyone who needs a bag with lots of storage and organization for traveling.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thule Aion Travel Backpack is incredibly versatile. I love that this Backpack can fit my laptop while still having so much space for my other items. Each compartment helps me to store my necessities neatly. This backpack is also made from recycled materials. I am so happy I can easily use one bag for any of my day or weekend trips.

I purchased this bag since I travel by plane once a month for a small amount of time and I wanted a nice carry on. This is such an amazing travel backpack. It has compartments for everything. I like how it’s versatile, I can wear it as a duffel bag, or backpack! It’s the perfect bag for a small weekend trip, or for a weekend plane trip! I love it.

Almost Perfect; Needs A Few Tweaks In Round 2
on November 6, 2022
Posted by: JORF
from NYC
Some things I would like to see in the next update…
1. Load lifter straps above each shoulder strap to redistribute the weight closer to the body.
2. Side compression straps to compress the pack when not fully loaded, and to reduce the outer dimensions when you’re trying to fit the bag in an overhead compartment or other tight space. When this thing is fully loaded, it has a tendency to look like a turtle shell on your back; compression straps would help with this.
3. Slightly more interior volume. 42-45L would be perfect for one-bag travel
4. Include the hip belt pack instead of forcing people to purchase it separately. It’s an ingenious idea, but it should already be included. A travel pack this size NEEDS a hip belt in order to redistribute weight off the back and shoulders and on to the hips.
