I purchased this bag for our Spring Break trip to Hawaii in 2010...great beach bag with nice liner to prevent sand from getting into the bag while on beach, overall very durable and nice quality. Not sure if I can use it for the trip however, not easily folded and would take up a tremendous amount of space in carry on bag. I wouldn't recommend taking this bag if you are trying to save on additional baggage fees when flying.
This is a great big bag! Huge. Colors are very fun. a few of the strips came out but was easily fixable.
I like it. It's roomy and attractive.
