A protective bag for the big travel backpack is a must for any flying regularly and widely. The backpack can not go so caught up in the catacombs of the airports in the world and thus reduces the risk that the good luggage is lost. Even thieves come thanks to the protective bag is not as easy to connect with content.
Although my Tatonka Cases helped for my backpack, I'm going to buy next another envelope.
This protective cover is really only suitable for checked baggage, as it has no handles or a passage for the straps, which I think is a shame. That which acts as a handle on the product picture is only closure. Plotting the shell at this point, you will not have long fun with it. There are few opportunities for employees at the airport to fix the Travel-tag stickers. Simply stick it: Luggage goodbye forever. To loop around it goes, but is also quite uncertain.
Advantages:
+ Protective rucksack wherever the baggage is checked when traveling
+ Small window for address details
+ Improved security against theft, since no zipper etc.
+ Very easy, so easy to carry, if the backpack is not plugged in it
Disadvantages:
- Material relatively thin (not paper thin, but could be fixed)
- Transport impractical when the backpack in the shell is
- Hardly any possibilities for attaching the tags Travel
I have used the shell to 4 long-distance travel. Although I have the envelope used only for transporting the plane, on the journey itself is not. After the third it was completely punctured at the bottom. Meanwhile, the envelope is retired. Certainly there also the airport staff plays an important role, although the material could be a little more robust.
I would hope that a similar Tatonka Cases like Deuter brings out that is robust, but also leaves more options for transporting more than solid shell.
Conclusion: The shell has done me the 4 air travel good services. The price is a bit high. But well, who can afford a long-distance flight, will probably be able now and then specify a new shell. After all, it is much more expensive, if the baggage and personal effects lost / break.
