I have a Zen class bag (by Nirvana).
Here’s the Amazon page for it. On an airplane trip, the bag hooks
over the folding-down tray on the seat in front of you, and its many
pockets place a remarkable number of items at your finger-tips. (On
the trip home, there was no seat right in front of me. Instead, I
hooked the bag over my TV monitor, and that worked just as well.)
I usually try to put everything I might
need in the Zen Class bag: magazine, book, deck of cards, earplanes,
medicines, vitamins, pen, etc., etc. And I was lucky. On the plane
trip out, as we were walking down the corridor to the actual plane
door, we encountered a dragonlady who forced almost everyone, at
this last moment, to check their carryon bag.
“Just let me take one thing on the
plane,” I said. I took the Zen bag out of my rolling case, and also
took out my iPad 2. I slipped the iPad into the Zen bag, and that was
all I took on the plane. And for an 11 hour trip, it was more than
enough.
