The Calpak Luka 15 inch Laptop Backpack is a style-first option that also works on a plane. Calpak gives it a dedicated 15 in. laptop sleeve, a hidden security pocket inside the luggage sleeve, a scratch-resistant exterior and a cushioned fabric it describes as light and comfortable when fully packed. The luggage sleeve slides onto suitcase handles. It was $110.40 in Calpak's Black Friday sale, down from $138, but the discounted colorway we checked was marked final sale. Calpak markets it to commuters, students and frequent travelers and does not call it a personal item on the product page, so check its size against your airline. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test the bag.
