What's In My Bag? The 2024 Airplane Edition

Ever since I started traveling for work frequently after the pandemic, I’ve had the opportunity to test out many a tote for the airplane. See, it’s important that the bag holds my laptop, a book, headphones, and anything else I might need for the flight.

While I initially loved the design of Aesther Ekme’s Sac, the fact that it didn’t fit under an economy-sized seat was a deal-breaker for me. Regular canvas totes were also too floppy and open, causing my stuff to roll out. After trying out many bags, I have to say my go-to now is the Cara by the German company Agneel. It is the perfect size to hold exactly what I need.




On my recent trip to Japan, I also experimented with using the Large Park Tote by The Row as my airplane bag. It was definitely roomier and could hold more than Agneel’s Cara, so I think I’ll use it for longer international flights when I need more items. For shorter domestic flights, Agneel’s Cara will remain my go-to.

Here’s a rundown of what’s in my bag:

  • Bose headphones
  • Notebook
  • Monocle Magazine
  • Workbook
  • Sleep mask
  • Pen case
  • Laptop and case
  • Louis Vuitton wallet
  • Phone (not pictured)
  • Summer Fridays toiletries pouch, which includes:
    • Advil
    • Glasses cleaner
    • Glasses wipes
    • Ear plugs for altitude
    • Gum
    • Bonine for motion sickness
    • Summer Fridays eye cream, lip gloss, and moisturizer
