He added that customers need to be aware that what they see as the lowest fare on a price comparison search may not wind up being the cheapest option once the fees are tallied.

"It's not transparent until you've gotten a certain depth into the booking: 'Oh, here's the seat selection fee. Oh, here's the baggage fee. Oh, here's the carry-on fee.' And watch out if you don't check-in online, there's a massive penalty if you don't," Vanderlubbe said.

I have, but only for 3 day trip. With the Personal Item as a laptop bag, I can fit the laptop and accessories, and then choose materials that pack small like dress slacks instead if jeans, and poly shirts instead of cotton T shirts. You can lay pants folded into laptop bag slots. Shirts typically rolled and tucked down either end of laptop. Socks can be tricky since I need cotton to breath or my feet sweat LOL. Either a light jacket with the outer and inner pockets, or a business sport coat that has same. Shoes have to match all your outfits because packing extra shoes is a lot of bulk.
