Product Description:
Tenba Skooba Checkthrough.... The patent-pending Checkthrough Bag looks and functions like a high-end business case, but is designed and rigorously-tested to be "checkpoint-friendly," so you can run it through airport x-ray screening withoutremoving your computer.* The bag opens and hinges in the middle to separate and isolate the laptop compartment from the rest of the bag. For initial, immediate visual reference, the laptop can be seen by the inspector through a clear, quick-recognition window that is exposed when the bag is unfolded. With the window facing up, the bag is sent through x-ray screening. The design of the laptop compartment is such that the image presented to the screener is the same as if the laptop were removed and placed in a bin. The Checkthrough bag and all of its contents can be carried securely with or without the hinge zipped shut, so it can be readied in line, prior to screening. Once through, the traveler can simply pick up the bag and go, zipping it back up on the move or at the gate.

I bought this bag for my husband, who flies frequently, for Christmas after researching several "airport security-friendly" bags. The design combined with cost of this one made it the best choice in my opinion.
My husband really likes the bag--and especially the separately purchased superbungee strap. (The bag's description makes it hard to tell whether it comes with a strap at all. It does, but it is a basic one and not as comfortable as the superbungee.) He has yet to take a trip, ... Read More

The designers of this bag have hit on a good idea but the design needs some additional work if it is to be fully successful.
The bag is large, in fact too large to fit comfortably under airline seats. This means contending for space in the overhead bins. These, of course, are becoming increasingly crowded as people try to duck baggage check charges by carrying on their goodies.
Despite the large size, padding around the laptop is minimal. Others may view this differently ... Read More

I bought this bag sight unseen, and had high hopes due to a favorable review on CNET. First off, it's big. I know it needs to be a certain size to contain a laptop, but I also use it as a primary 'manbag' to bring to work each day, and it's a bit of overkill for that.
But the most troubling aspect so far is a tear on one of the front small pockets. The material is reipping from the stitching, and this is after 6 weeks of use.
As far as the airport screening factor, so far ... Read More

First, kudos to Amazon that got this to me in ONE day, and I didn't pay for any overnight shipping, or any special handling.
The guidelines for underseat storage is 36 inches total. Unfortunately, I found this out after I bought this bag. The bag is 37.5 inches. I will probably return this bag. Skooba needs to take 1.5 inches out of the middle of this bag!!
I was also dissapointed in the lack of padding around the edges of the laptop. The pictures make it appear like there ... Read More

This bag is excellent! Have been in four airports to date and all the TSA people have used the word "cool." The other day at Reagan International in Washington a TSA person helping customers get their items through X-Ray insisted that I take the laptop out. I told her it was one of the new TSA friendly bags -- she was not familiar with the term. I told her that it would be OK and that the X-Ray guy would love it! She gave it a shot and watched the bag go right through. The X-Ray guy said, "as long as you ... Read More
