The High Sierra 26" Railpass Travel Pack is the first travel pack I have owned. The purchase was for a 10 day trip to Thailand. It was an appropriate size for this length of trip, however, if you plan on shopping a lot during your trip, you might want a bigger pack.
Considering the transportation I encountered in Thailand, this pack was very appropriate. For the airplane, the straps can be zipped behind a panel that is otherwise rolled and velcroed under the pack. Other modes of transportation included walking, bus, skytrain (BTS), ferry, longtail boat, taxi cab, and tuk tuk. The pack fared well in all situations, although it was a bit bulky on the sky train, and sort of tough to lift in and out of the longtail boat.
Sometimes I found it more convenient to carry the packs seperately; with the daypack on the front and the big pack on my back, or vice-versa. Other times, I zipped them together into one unit. When zipped together, the pack became somewhat unbalanced, however, I was not often using the packs in this manner for a long period of time. If you plan to go on a long hiking trip, then get a hiking backpack instead.
Converting the pack to hide straps or attach/remove the day pack was very easy and quick.
The frame and belt were not ideal for a woman's body. For reference, I am 5'6" or 5'7" and weigh about 135 lbs, and I am in good shape. The belt padding did not reach far enough around my hips to be comfortable, and although the frame was adjustable, I didn't fiddle with it long enough to find an adjustment that was ideal. Maybe over time I will.
I would definitely recommend this pack due to the cheap price, and flexibility of its uses.
