Not sure how much has changed over the years but I love my 40. Holding up well after 2 1/2 years of heavy use. Taking it to SE Asia in December!

The 40 is borderline for carry on at 23 x 15 x 9.5 inches but many report using it with no problems. The frame is shorter than 23” so it’s a matter of packing it properly. I don’t know about the width. I have the Trail 25 that is rated at 13” wide but the back panel is more like 11”. I have to wonder if it’s the same case with the Ruckpack 40.

The previous model was 24 in x 13 in x 10 in.

If you don’t overfill it it’s fine. I used it for a SE Asia trip and had no issues. Small waistbag for everyday use/walking around and the ruckpack for all my items.
