Looking for a new work bag (or backpack) for my boyfriend — he is a consultant but doesn’t travel. He is quite low key and doesn’t want anything flashy or brandy, but it would be great to get an upgrade because his current bag is breaking down. Something in the $80-200 range would be ideal. Does anyone have recommendations for high quality brands in that range?

I enjoy Timbuk2 and Topo Designs - nice looking bags that are good quality without breaking the bank

Filson has some cool lo profile bags really well made

Tumi is generally out of that price range, but their semi-annual sale started today so you be able to snag a deal

Agree - Saddleback is the best bag I've ever owned. I've run thru multiple Tumis and others and always bummed that they just come apart. Never got a compliment on a Tumi either. Orepandemic when was traveling would get a compliment all the time. They are expensive ($500-600) but will last forever (think their slogan is something like their bag will be what people fight over when you die). Pretty cool story on the company too

Has anyone traveled on Fly Norse? I am wondering if they're a good airline to fly on?

Thoughts?

Hi fishes,
I am joining Honeywell @ Bellandur next month. My current residence is near Brookfield mall. So about 7-8 kms from the new office on ORR as per Google maps.
1. Should i continue at the same residence and travel 3 days a week to the office?
2. If not, where should i shift so that traffic is minimal.

Requirements: Good residential area, eateries/food availability, would like to avoid traffic as much as possible for commute to work, distance is not a concern as i have a bike.

Quick question for my DTS travelers: if I don’t wanna take part of a flight back from a school that I’m attending, can I just push the flight in United without any repercussions? E.g., flying back from COS to DEN to IAH on 5/20 but I wanna stay in DEN … can I just push the DEN-IAH segment in United and not get on the plane then? Will that land me in trouble? Can I even mess with DTS flights on the United app?
