Flight Shoulder Bags: Practical Carry-On for Short Trips

Flight shoulder bags or also Board Bags are a special type of carry-on luggage. Unlike other cabin baggage pieces, they don't try to maximize storage space. Instead, a compromise is made between comfort and volume. These carry-on pieces offer good compartmentalization, are easy to transport, and often score points with an appealing design. Browse through the category to learn more about these useful carry-on bags.

Carry-On Luggage in All Varieties at bags.co.uk

Board bags are popular, but they only make up a small part of our assortment. Even in the area of carry-on luggage, we have a large selection ready. Our customers can choose between cabin luggage in different colors and sizes. Nearly all well-known luggage manufacturers are represented. You'll find among others shoulder bags, backpacks, trolleys and laptop bags. What would you like?

Shoulder Bags

Shoulder bags intended to be taken into the aircraft cabin are called carry-on bags. Board bags also belong to this category. Basically, carry-on bags don't differ too much from bags we use in everyday life. However, they are somewhat more designed for travel and less for daily activities. Nevertheless, the focus remains on good comfort. Most shoulder bags are worn over the shoulder or across the body. Some additionally feature ergonomic carrying handles. Popular materials for carry-on bags are canvas, leather and nylon.

Backpacks

Backpacks are without question among the most flexible pieces of luggage at all. They come in the most varied designs, so we can really use them in all life situations. While some backpacks are only suitable for short day trips, others are intended for multi-day outdoor activities. It's not surprising that there are also more than enough models suitable for cabin use. As long as it's not a large trekking backpack, problems with the airline are practically ruled out. Normally it's not even checked whether a backpack corresponds to the exact carry-on dimensions.

Trolley

When selecting cabin luggage, many of us opt directly for trolleys. This is truly no surprise, as they combine good carrying comfort with high volume. A storage capacity of 30 to 40 liters is not uncommon even with small models. Nevertheless, comfort is extremely comfortable thanks to the lockable telescopic handle and smooth-running wheels. Additionally, there are trolleys in the most varied designs. Besides trolleys in classic colors like gray, black or white, many models can be found in bright colors like blue, green or red. Even eye-catching patterns with dots, stripes or motifs are widespread.

Laptop Bags

Traveling without a laptop? Probably only very few of us can imagine that, as they work with the devices and/or use them for entertainment. That's where laptop bags come in handy. They enable comfortable and safe carrying of laptops of different sizes. A special feature of these carry-on pieces is that they are not classified as such. Almost every airline allows carrying a laptop bag in addition to regular cabin luggage. For good reason, there are only few travelers left who forego the practical bags. If they're somewhat larger, by the way, that's no problem at all.

Tip: Carry-on bags should be made of durable materials like leather, nylon or polyester. Furthermore, it's good if they are water-repellent. You'll find bags with us that meet both criteria. Simply buy one that appeals to you visually and meets your travel requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Flight Shoulder Bags

What is a flight shoulder bag?

There is no uniform definition for carry-on bags. Basically, one can say that it is a flight bag that was designed as carry-on luggage and is characterized by both low weight and compact dimensions. Despite their compact dimensions, they usually offer enough space for all kinds of travel accessories. How good the carrying comfort is depends heavily on the quality of the product. High-quality bags from well-known brands like D&N, Samsonite and Travelite are in no way inferior to other pieces of luggage.

What types of flight shoulder bags are there?

There is no clear definition for board bags. What is clear is that it's not just any carry-on luggage. Rather, we're dealing with shoulder bags that were designed to be taken into the cabin. Thus, board bags include among others duffel bags, messenger bags and tote bags with travel character. How this travel character manifests varies. Conceivable are for example practical compartment organization, special sizes or durable materials.

Why should you use a flight shoulder bag?

Of course, we can simply check a large piece of luggage at the counter and apart from that only take a small backpack onto the plane. However, we recommend a carry-on bag, as such comes with several advantages, including:

  • Thanks to multiple compartments, organization is made easier
  • Some board bags have great looks
  • Compact dimensions contribute to more flexibility
  • Valuables are always within reach
  • Adjustable shoulder straps provide additional comfort

The best alternative to board bags are classic cabin luggage pieces like trolleys. Both have their pros and cons. You therefore need to weigh which type of carry-on luggage better meets your requirements. A good criterion is travel duration. For short trips, board bags are good, while trolleys represent the better choice for long trips because of their larger storage capacity.
