This is a fabulous bag. I have one in another pattern and wanted an extra . There are compartments for my iPad and medication I don't want to pack. Its perfect for me when we fly, a water bottle fits in the side, theres a zippered compartment I can stow my passport in, but get to easily. I can put a small purse and my dopp kit in it and it stows easily on the plane. When we travel by car I can put a few clothes in it along with iPad and kit and just use it overnight,  leaveing the big suitcase in the car. I modified my first one with some Velcro tabs to keep the iPad area closed better. I will probably do that to this one also.
