There are as many ways to pack a backpack as there are people who carry them. Many organizational systems tend to break down during heavy use, but a few simple techniques can help.

on 6/30/2006 When loading a pack on a plane, buckle the waist belt back around the pack. Secure the shoulder straps by fastening the chest strap back around the pack as well. Wrap with the remaining side straps to keep them in place. Secure all loose straps or buckles by tucking them under and around themselves or into nearby pockets. Anything that is loose can get caught in the conveyor belt.
