Be careful when ordering this item as it does NOT fit in most carry on bag checks. I bought this for a trip on Allegiant Air. I took it to the airport prior to actually flying and found that it was several inches too wide. If I had not done this prior to boarding I would have been hit with an extra fee of $35 each way for it to be stored. I went with a different brand. Check the actual sizes as this one does not even allow you to squeeze it down as it is formed to size.
