I'm flying to Haiti in January to lead a team to help with reconstruction efforts on an orphanage. I think I would like to pack in an internal frame backpack to check on the plane and then ride out of Port a Prince. Anyone have any suggestions or thoughts?

I really like the osprey packs. I used an osprey aether 60 for a two week backpack at Philmont -
Thanks!Comment

It also depends on your size. Osprey makes some of the best packs on the market, but are typically smaller framed. I am about 6'1'' 220 and they don't fit well on my back. Will you be backpacking any or just for luggage?Comment

Just got back from Haiti working at orphanages as well. I took a CampTrails pack that I checked packed at 47#. I'm 6'4 235lb and it fits me great and was really comfortable to carry. Held all my stuff no prob. Hope God blesses yalls time there and y'all get a whole lot done.Comment
