Air Boss Rocks!

As I mentioned before Christmas, I was looking into carry on bags.

In the end I opted for the Red Oxx Air Boss and added the laptop bag as well.

I got to try it out properly this week when I was over in Brussels.

Packing 4 days worth of clothes and various other bits and bobs into the bag wasn’t an issue and the shoulder straps on both the main bag and the laptop one worked well.

As I was only going away for a couple of days I didn’t need to worry too much about wedging a large volume of clothes into a small space, but I can see how you could pack quite a bit in if needed.

Checkin on the way out of Dublin took all of 30 seconds, as I simply had to collect a boarding pass (which I could have done online if I’d really wanted to).

Checkin on the way out of Brussels was painless as well, though they don’t have automatic machines there for Aer Lingus passengers

Arriving back in Dublin’s Terminal 2 today I was able to walk straight off the plane and probably saved myself about 30 minutes. I’d have been faster if I could have found my way to the exit!

Saving so far 30 euro.

EDIT: I’ve been asked by a couple of people where you can buy the Red Oxx bags. The only place I’m aware of is directly from their website.
