Thule Aion Reviews

Perfect Travel Backpack

By Travel Pack
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-05-05

I bought the Aion 40L backpack to use as my carryon while traveling internationally. It’s a great size… not too heavy when fully packed. I put all my “can’t be without/lose” things like meds, chargers, wallet, passport, phone/tablet, etc in it. It easily fits in the overhead and sometimes under the seat depending on the airline. It has a pocket or space fit everything. It’s well made and very durable. It fits comfortably on my back except I don’t like, need or use the chest strap.

Great Carry On

Nice compartments & straps to pack clothing, computer ... Easy to carry through the airport or around town, especially with the Aion sling bag threaded through the bottom to support the weight on your hips.
