I bought the green Target backpack back in October to use on Spirit flight in November. I honestly stuffed it! I measured the bag discreetly in the bag sizer, and it didn’t fit. However, no one questioned me and I was cleared to board the flight without paying. I’ve used it multiple times for weekend road trips since then and it’s been great, but I know for a fact I can’t use it on a Frontier flight in April since they are much stricter. My advice is to just be careful on how much you are stuffing any travel backpack because the bag isn’t structured and expands a good bit, especially with the front pockets and everything! I had to move a couple things from the front to the main compartment to flatten out the bag more. But backpacks are SO easy to travel with compared to other bags! Happy travels! :)
This is such an amazing review! A lot of channels don’t have this much in depth in their video. Felt very informed! Definitely convinced me to get the Amazon bag!
Forgot to mention target bag has ability to go on telescoping rolling bag. Even though it appears like it has less padding it is very quite comfortable and the design without all the additional pockets allows it to keep its “figure” therefore not puffing up to being too large for under the seat. The material in the laptop portion appealed to me because I use a tablet and it cleans the screen as I place the tablet in the pocket.
Doesn’t have the back strap/flap to hook onto luggage handle. I came upon an older version of the Target bag on clearance for 15$. Sewed on that back strap and it is perfect for travel. Meets the personal bag size limit.
Hi there! Thanks for sharing your comparison between the Tick Tock travel backpack and the Amazon generic version. It's really helpful to know about the differences in features and pricing. I'm quite intrigued by the Amazon version, especially with its extra compartments, cushioning, and that handy water bottle holder. However, before making a decision, could you please provide more information about the durability and build quality of both backpacks? It would be great to hear your thoughts on that aspect. Thanks in advance!
I have a bag by Wandr in a light color with better organization and the trolley sleeve holds the backpack straps. It was only $32. I have many backpacks priced 80-$150 and this new $32 backpack is my favorite personal item. It comes in a lot of different colors and has a wet bag, as well.
Sure! I will probably do a packing video of how I will pack this backpack for a 4 day trip using only this personal item no other luggage. My favorite luggage right now is BEIS
Not at all. Personal item would be considered as small. The airlines have different confusing requirements. You would need to check with that airline and take measurements of luggage you want to take.
@@Megan-gp7dnI didn’t get the L because it was an inch or 2 over Vianca’a personal size limit. I believe the regular large fits with all those spirit and horizon airlines
Hi, not on any other socials. I’m not tech savvy or anything just made one video which turned into 7. I’ll still make and post videos here just not wasn’t sure that many people would be interested.
I’m debating whether to order one from Amazon or Target for my upcoming trip. Would you do a “pack with me” video so you could show how much you can fit in the Amazon bag? Thank you for your video
So I actually took a trip with the Amazon bag on spirit airlines(very strict with size). I guess I must’ve over packed the bag(too fat) because it did not fit into the personal bag size thing without pushing it a little down. The gate agent said it mush slide down without any pushing. I decided to try a different bag for my next trip called take off where the wheels come off so won’t be doing a packing video with the bag afterall sorry,
I brought my travel backpack from a store called DD's for $15.99. I brought after someone stole my Amazon backpack. Amazon gave me my money back though.

That front compartment seems ideal for a square water bottle (doesn't roll), umbrella.

Nice tip with using the shoe compartment as a liquid section. Thanks 🎉
Targets BP comes in charcoal and black too! And it feels good. Thx for sharing

This is very helpful. Thank you!
I got the Amazon one for $34. I liked the other colors but got Black also.
Thanks for this video and information!
I got the medium/small (large not large-L) size so I could use it as a personal item ☺️
Great review. Thank you!

The Target bag can tuck away the backpack straps.
I wondered whether the straps could be tucked away. Does the Target bag have a carry handle on the side?
@@pamelah2850yes it does
@@pamelah2850yes😊
It does.

Loved this video! Can you post a video after your trip?
Can you do a video on your fav luggage and how you pack for trips? Thanks!🌸
Sure! I will probably do a packing video of how I will pack this backpack for a 4 day trip using only this personal item no other luggage. My favorite luggage right now is BEIS
The green color is cuter
And it's bigger than that Amazon bag
main question. which size is perfect for personal item
I have the Amazon bag but from Temu I will put liquids in shoe hole thanks for that
So you can use the Amazon large backpack as personal item, correct? Just wondering because of some comments I got confused. Thanks in advance 😊

Hi! Thank you for the video! The Amazon one comes with two sizes - "large" and "large-L". Which one did you buy?
Large L is the one I got
@@Megan-gp7dnI didn’t get the L because it was an inch or 2 over Vianca’a personal size limit. I believe the regular large fits with all those spirit and horizon airlines
Was looking for this. Thanks
Soo there’s 2 options for large backpack for the Amazon backpack is this just the large versions or is the large L version?
Per other comment she responded it's Large-L. 🤦♀️Towards end of the video you hear her say its the Large.
Would love to see more organizing/packing videos. Are you on any other socials?

@@Megan-gp7dn Thank you. I'll keep an eye out for new videos then. I love your tips and tricks for staying organized!

would this fit 2x 15.6 inch laptops?
Not sure
Could you please add the link to your FB account to find your videos you talk about? Thanks
What size did you get in the amazon version? I hot the large and leave on a 4 day trip. Hoping spirit will accept it as a personal item.
I got the large size
@@Megan-gp7dn Sorry! I heard you mention it towards the end, thanks!
@@Megan-gp7dn Large? Or Large-L? I think in another comment you said Large-L which is bigger.
I brought my travel backpack from a store called DD's for $15.99. I brought after someone stole my Amazon backpack. Amazon gave me my money back though.
I just ordered the Amazon one in pink, can’t wait!
I have both. But I tend to grab my target bag more. It's bigger and pockets are more useful than on the Amazon bag.
