  • Hi, Friends! Today I am sharing what's in my personal item when I travel, and my full review of the Away Travel Everywhere Bag. I've used it on 4 trips and I'm showing you all the features AND exactly WHAT I put in that puppy to make me feel more human when flying in coach! Those who fly first class may not need this video;). The bag I purchased retails for $195 and can be purchased here (affiliate link): bit.ly/joyfullivingjenlefforge

    I use a small belt bag as my “cabin bag” and I ban hang it around the tray table and can fold it up and still access all my necessities. 😊

    Thank you for the wonderful review! I wasn't sure what you meant at first by "bag with a big mouth" but after you demonstrated it, I fell in love! I usually take a backpack on planes with me and whenever I need something I have to dig and dig and take things out and it is just frustrating. This bag looks like it might be my dream bag for flights!

    Thanks Jen! It is refreshing to see a non-sponsored review for Away. I have seen a zillion sponsored reviews on TH-cam. I do see the carryons quite a bit but haven’t pulled the trigger on it. This one looks nice. I have the Lo and Sons bag with the sleeve that doubles as a purse, this one looks bigger.

    • @JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge
      @JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes that’s one of the reasons I wanted to do it!! I think it says a lot that with all the pieces I own this set is what goes with me on every trip now.

    Great ideas! I have started carrying small bags for garbage (tissues, wrappers, Clorox wipes) in my cabin bag, especially for long flights. I use the goodie bag from the dentist or even doggie poo bags.

    Good luggage and bags are expensive. My wife has spent a ridiculous amount on a number of Tumi pieces. However, good luggage and bags will usually last decades, so you may spend more upfront, but you are not replacing them every couple of years. You mentioned a carpet bag, my wife has a real carpet bag, (the bag is actually made of carpet) which she uses similar to the way you are using this one. Great review video! Have a great trip!

    If my bag does not have a key strap I take a diaper pin (for cloth diapers) and pin my keys to the inside of my bag. The diaper pin is a bit bigger than a regular safety pin and kinda cute.

  • @embla4725
    @embla4725 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Nice review. Though, that bag might be too big for a personal item. Some airlines might not accept it as a personal item if you have a carry-on bag as well. So my tip would be to check what is allowed on the airlines you regularly fly before buying it =)

    Your review may have sold me. I’ve been between Calpak luka (which I fear might be too big for under the seat in some flights) and this one. I often shop on trips and was afraid this would be too small, but it looks like it holds more than my tumi voyager backpack

    Jen! I was just about to pull the trigger on a new luggage set, and I've had my eye on the Away brand for some time now (I know, I'm late to the party). lol. I also know this video is a few years old (missed a bunch of the linked goodies), and your storefront isn't active on Amazon any longer...BUT.... if you remember the names to some of your items, would you mind sharing so I can search? I'm in love with the clear Disney donut bag you use for makeup, as well as the ipad cover and a few other items! Thanks so much! :)
