Flying with Pack as Carry On

[fullstrut]

I have an Eberlestock Just One pack that’s 2300-4500 ci, I plan on trying to use this as my carry on with southwest. Anyone have a similar size pack they’ve flown with as a carry on? Or any issues they ran into?

It won't have much in it to make the size very big…. Just some optics and couple pair of clothes. Only about 15lbs total

Did the same on SW with a Sawtooth 45, no issues.

I just flew Delta from MSP to Salt Lake and I had a similar size pack, Seek outside 4800. The attendant that was boarding immediately handed me a gate check ticket. We were on an Airbus (cant remember the type) and she said the frame wouldn't fit in the overhead even though I was able to fit it in the carry-on sizing template. I picked it up from baggage claim no problem.

Carried on an SG x-curve and 5900 in bivvy mode (around 4300") and had no problem.
