I traveled last year with Walmart backpack. It worked great. 47L capacity was pretty big for me. I bought it for the price but ended up keeping it and using for more travel. They don’t have the same model anymore, but the updated one is 35+15L detachable daypack but it is top loading.

I've been using this one as my carry on for a year or 2 now. I can easily maneuver it into an overhead bin. I am used to using a smaller backpack for under the seat - so I take a tote bag I can pack and pull it in and out to use as a purse. I can easily get a week of clothes in there and there a laptop/iPad sleeve. The buttery fly design takes some getting used to, but I like the size in general. you can check then out in person at REI. I think EBags is still around and they may have a similar design.

Ideal features would be a detachable daypack, a all-round zip opening rather than toploading pack, padded adjustable straps plus hip and chest strap.

TIA!

Osprey and you need to check sizing.

Very important to check sizing not all backpacks fit on the trains and or small airlines

Pacsafe has some good ones as well and they lock which is super important

We only backpack too much of a pain either way stairs

My daughter has an Osprey with a detachable day pack. Pre-kids, I used a smaller REI pack for travel -- not a travel backpack, just a smaller pack meant for a weekend trip. Maybe 45 L or so.

Sadly eBags was shutdown a year ago, fully subsumed into Samsonite. They do still have some of the products there.
