TLDR
The last personal carry-on you'll ever need.
The Night Flight Travel Duffel is perfectly sized for under the seat of a flight without wasting a modicum of space. Side pockets make accessing often-used items a cinch without yanking out the whole bag, while the main pocket lies comfortably in waiting under the carry handles.
- Big side compartments for easy access in the plane
- Shoulder or Hand Carry with comfortable scoops for easy pushing and pulling inside the plane.
- A total of 8 o-rings to attach anything you need where you need it.
Full Description
Grab and Carry Options
The Night Flight Travel Duffel comes with a multitude of grab and carry options. It comes standard with, well, the Standard Strap. Comfortably designed scoops at the bottom of the side compartments make it easy to grab even from the overhead bin. An oversized, squishy handle keeps the two individual handles together while carrying it while keeping balanced. Finally, if you don't feel like carrying it anymore, there is a passthrough for wheeled luggage handles.
End Pockets
A pocket etches a gentle curve in the upper third of each of the two short sides of the Night Flight Travel Duffel. These pockets are easily accessible even from under-seat, and are the perfect place to put a pair of earbuds, a Travel Pillow, or a quick treat on the plane.
Side Compartments
Above the end pockets, on each edge of the duffel, are the larger side compartments. They are mirror images of each other, a slip pocket inside large enough to fit an iPad Mini or eReader inside each, and as one would expect with us, two o-rings for your attachment needs.
Each pocket is quite large, measuring in at approximately 10" x 4" x 8" seam-to-seam. Perfect for even the largest things you want quick access with just a quick tug of the scoop to pull the side zipper out from under the seat.
Main Compartment
The main compartment is a generously sized open area measuring in around 10" x 7" x 8". The lid has a mesh zipper pocket for all the small knickknacks you want safely stashed under your handles. The compartment also has a bevy of o-rings, 4 to be exact.
What's Included
Standard Shoulder Strap
This one is a little different than most of our other shoulder straps, but not by much. No pad or grip, just a plain shoulder strap the width of our Standard shoulder strap.
8" Snaphook/Snaphook Key Strap
As with most of our bags, we've included a key strap. 8" long from tip-to-tip, a snaphook on either end. Good for attaching your keys to.
A Set of Black Zipper Pulls
A set of pulls to extend or replace your metal pulls.
What's Optional
Upgrade the Standard shoulder strap to an Absolute Shoulder Strap for a comfortable carry with even the heaviest load.

With this duffel, you’ll never doubt whether the airlines will accept this bag as a personal (under seat) carry on. It’s the perfect size: Small on the outside, but big on the inside with plenty of pockets to keep you hyper-organized. Sadly, TB doesn’t offer packing cubes scaled to fit this popular duffel bag. Until then, I’ll continue using Thule’s small compression packing cubes which easily fit in the duffel’s generous main compartment or in the two large side pockets.

I bought this for a trip to Tanzania. It was just what I needed for that trip. Held my camera, binoculars and enough carryon stuff to keep me comfortable, identified, permitted, funded and entertained for 45 hours of flight time. And left room for my feet beside it. Also served well as day bag at my feet during 7 days of 4x4 safari travel, where it held optical stuff, extra clothes, personal items and field guides. Padded design made it seem safe for optical equipment. That said, if I had like only 3 travel bags, this wouldn’t be one of them. For me it’s somewhat specialized. Not very useful for business travel, for instance.

I love this duffle bag. I had looked at it online and considered buying it, but thought it might be too small. Then I had the opportunity to visit the new Tom Bihn store and saw the bag in person. It looked like just what I needed for under the airplane seat - and it was!
Although the main compartment is not especially big, it is big enough to hold my EDC and a small knitting project. The pockets on the ends are roomy and allow me to separate snacks, lotion, etc so I don’t have to paw through everything each time I want something.
I got a beautiful color combination: blue with pink interior. Just looking at it makes me happy!

I have always travelled with a daypack until I bought this. I love the size and compartments. I am small enough to use the hand straps as backpack straps. I simply love this! Thank you for making it!

I’ve used my night flight duffel a few times already in the month I’ve had it. Mostly for over night trips. Works great to hold my charger and toiletries in the end pockets and a couple days worth of clothes in the main pocket. Shoes won’t fit in this bag but everything else you’d need for an over night trip will! I can’t wait to carry it on my next flight!

Sewn in Seattle
Our bags are designed and sewn right here in Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.
That allows us to be control freaks in the best way possible; we have direct control and oversight of the quality of our materials, our products, and the jobs and working environment that we help create. It also offers us a unique spontaneity: when we have an idea for a new product or accessory, we can design it, figure out how to build it, add it to our website and be ready to ship it out our front door all within just a few weeks. How cool is that?
Intrigued? You can find out more about the unusual way we do business on our Company Philosophy page.
THE BIHN Guarantee
Everything you buy from us here at TOM BIHN is satisfaction guaranteed. We’ve been in business since 1972 and we stand behind what we make.
If something goes wrong and it's our fault, we'll fix it for free. Repairs due to normal wear and tear or due to other things that are not our fault will be performed, when possible, at a reasonable charge right here in our Seattle factory where your bag was made. Defects in materials or workmanship are uncommon and almost always evident while the product is still new. Keep in mind that bags and packs are often subject to extreme wear in everyday use: do not expect them to last forever. Only true love lasts forever! You can expect a TOM BIHN product to give years and years of hard service.
