You did an outstanding job packing everything. I would not be able to carry all that but great for those that can

Thank you so much for this! I’ve been eyeing this bag for a while but wondered if it was worth it. I think this is a definite for me.

It’s a perfect travel bag especially if you can only carry a personal item on a plane 🤗

Just received my Bento V4 and the interior is like a caramel color! LOVE. So glad it was not the regular gray color. Excited to use it! Will use it for strictly inflight stuff and electronics (no clothes - only my sweater). Can't wait.

Great video. I used your link to order the classic version. Can you do a video on the classic, highlighting the reasons your hubby prefers the classic.

I almost bought the older version and then I saw they released V4 which is what I prefer. Can't wait to get mine and take it on my next international trip!

Any recommendations for under seat rolling suitcases?

You packed 3 days worth of clothing and your toiletries/makeup. Is this in case your luggage gets lost? Or because you’re traveling so long? I flew to BKK and packed a change of clothes and Pjs (along with makeup and skincare) but no extra shoes or flip flops. I’m always interested in what people carry and why. thanks

It looks so lightweight 😍 I have a very similar bag but in pink.

On 3/19/24, there is a CRAZY sale on the v4 Bento Bag Black/Bronze

Ugh I want it but it’s outside my budget. Maybe one day soon. Might go with the smart bag since it a dupe for it 😢

Where did you get the eye glasses carrier?

Bought mine today

Where can I get that eyeglass case?

I always used a similar style bag but I feel like this one is more structured and has a lot more design features. I tried a smaller backpack on my last trip and I'm just not sure I like it better than the tote style.

I use a backpack if I don’t have a roller carry on to hold my personal item but I prefer a tote or this style duffel that can stand upright underneath the seat 🤗

I have the 2nd version of the Bento bsg, which came with the accessory pouches and a shoe bag or 2 shoe bags, can't recsll. I like the latest version and it's upgrades EXCEPT for the outside pockets. I much prefer the older version with the gusset because you can access the content s easily even if you stuff the bag. I also prefer the older version on the backside where you hot the trolley sleeve AND a zip pocket. You didn't have to choose between the two or have your contents fall out because you thought the zipper was closed and it wasn't, thus your pocket doesn't exist.

It seems like it would be really heavy when packed. Is is?

Think dimensions exceed European underseat dimensions- it’s made for US flights only

I took my personal item Bento bag on two Air France flights (16×12×6), plus a Briggs and Riley ZDX International carry-on bag. They didn't challenge me. Bento bag is 17x10x8.

I am traveling to Europe this summer. I do not want to bring a designer handbag. What bag would you recommend for sight seeing? Thanks

Hi Cindy! I’m going through the same dilemma right now and just posted some great options and pics in my KZread Community tab: howl.me/clHELqQNTQg If you’re traveling and don’t want to bring an expensive luxury handbag, consider these contemporary options from Tory Burch: howl.me/clHENyIB8gy Same vibe as the Chanel 19 down to the chain handle but for way less 🖤 howl.me/clHEFtdvGpY This satchel looks like a mini Hermes Bolide that can be worn crossboy howl.me/clHERBE2SI6 Get the look of the denim Chanel 22 hobo but without the $5k price tag 💙 howl.me/clHEWCOIhB8 This top handle looks similar to the LV Capucines or Hermes Kelly howl.me/clHE08rkO5O Also available in a mini size 🤎 howl.me/clHE4NcFwMa If you don’t want to deal with the high price, long wait, or melting straps of a Goyard, this tote looks similar with a zip closure and attached pouch, and some colors are on sale for only $180!

Do the pouches that come with the new version fit in the older original bento bag?

Probably not 5 days of clothes.

Traveling for me aside from pretty much the basic necessary stuff you take my other go to's are a small sewing kit(the kind you can buy at dollar tree) you never know for those oh oh moment's, allergy eye drops & pills can't be without these if I am suddenly no one wants to be around mainly stranger's thinking I am sick lol but nope allergies unfortunately, clear nail polish if you are travelling with tights in your luggage because if you have a oh oh emergency moment the clear nail polish is a life saver, eyebrow pluckers for those wild random hair that are growing out you always want to remain looking well put together and breath mints lol

Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it, especially if you’re traveling to a remote location 🤗

I still prefer a trolley for travel. After all the things you stuffed in - the bag will be very heavy and uncomfortable to wear in the shoulder.
