    FAQ

    How does the vacuum compression system work?

    Place compressible clothing inside the vacuum compartment and fully close the zipper and valve. For the best compression results, use the Air Pump Pro. Use the expandable zipper for even more packing space.

    How many days can I pack for with the Airback Original?

    You can pack for approximately 5-7 days of travel, depending on what you pack and how you use the compression system.

    What size laptop fits inside the Airback Original?

    The Airback Original fits laptops up to 17 inches.

    Will the vacuum compartment stay compressed during my trip?

    Yes. Once compressed and properly closed, the vacuum compartment stays compressed throughout your trip.

    Is the Airback water-resistant?

    Yes. It is water-resistant and designed for durable, everyday travel.

    What is the difference between the Airback Original and the other Airback models?

    The Airback Original is a 48L backpack. For more space, choose the larger carry-on Airback MAX with wheels or the Airback NEXT suitcase. For a smaller personal item option, choose the Airback GO or wheeled Airback FLEX. 

    If you want to have a checked-in Airback version, choose the Airback MORE.

    Do I need the Air Pump Pro to use the Airback?

    No, the Air Pump isn’t required. However, we recommend it for the fastest and best compression results. The Air Pump Pro is compact, portable and rechargeable, so you can compress your Airback in seconds, wherever your trip takes you.

    Ideale come bagaglio a mano per week end

    "Per me ha la dimensione giusta per gestire tutto ciò che potrebbe servirti per un week end fuoriporta. La capienza è ottima e tasche e scomparti sono ben organizzati. Gli spallacci sono abbastanza comodi, ma bisogna sempre tener presente che portarselo sulle spalle tutto il giorno è abbastanza fastidioso e il peso si fa sentire. Comodo anche per essere utilizzato come zaino normale, ben fatto e capiente, ma anche in questo caso bisogna considerare il peso dello zaino a vuoto che non è indifferente. Nel complesso sono soddisfatto perché ha soddisfatto a pieno le mie aspettative."

    — Enrico F. (5/5)

    The best, but. . . . .

    "I really like the backpack; it is very practical and easy to pack. The only issue I have with it is that the valve does not hold the vacuum properly, so I cannot compress my clothes effectively. The valve has been continuously leaking since the very first use. I contacted customer service about the issue, but unfortunately nothing was done. They only suggested that I rearrange the clothes inside the backpack. I followed their advice and even tried packing fewer clothes, but unfortunately the problem remains exactly the same. It seems that the valve itself is faulty, and I don't know what else I can do about it. Unfortunately, the warranty has already expired. I really like the backpack otherwise, but without a properly functioning vacuum valve, I cannot use one of its main features. I am not sure what the solution could be in this situation."

    — Akos (5/5)

    Nice concept, but very painful for women

    "I want to love this backpack, but it is incredibly heavy and the support straps in the front are definitely made with men in mind and are unkind to my chest area. Additionally, when packing my lunch, I realized that everything must be put sideways, which has resulted in several spills in the bag. There are several design choices I appreciate about the bag, and the air compression is a wonderful feature, but my back is definitely suffering. For the price, I do not think this is worth it, especially for women."

    — VANI S. (3/5)

    Just as ADVERTISED

    "It showed up on time and is exactly as described! Heavy duty vacuum bag and makes for great use of space. Used it for our first trip and was able to make a two trip for 2 easy."

    — James B. (5/5)

    Love it !! but can't find the "hidden pocket"?

    "Arrived a couple of days ago and it looks great! Cant wait to use it!! In the videos it showed a "hidden pocket" for putting things like passports and the like in, however I can't find the hidden pocket on my bag. It's either really, really well hidden, or it doesn't exist anymore. Did you stop producing bags with the hidden pocket? It's still showing in the video that came with the QR code on the bag. Keen to hear from you as to where the hidden pocket is , or if its been removed for some reason . Thanks in advance"

    — JK (4/5)

    2 year experience

    "I have 2 airbacks, a small one (gifted by friends, my suggestion) and a big one bought ot my self. So 2 years using them i can tell they are elegant, amazing materials, you can put a lot in them BUT as a persin who lives in europe its not well suited to low cost airlines like vueling, easyjet, ryanair. They get sot riggides so you cant fit them that easily under the seats. Don't get me wrong you should buy them, i used them to put in my car or international traveling. My big bag i used it as a carry on when ever i dont want wheels. I was going to get a carry on with wheels but i have the impression they are too big for europe travel."

    — Axel F. (4/5)
