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 without removing your computer.* The checkpoint friendly 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. *All Skooba checkpoint-friendly bags have been designed and rigorously tested in close collaboration with the TSA, and meet all of the necessary requirements. It is the user's responsibility to make sure any checkpoint-friendly bag is packed and used as specified. In all instances, screening personnel always have the right to require laptop removal, secondary screening, or any other measures deemed necessary to ensure travel security.

I am already a big fan. Mike HollingsworthI wanted to share with you our overall impression of our TSA approved Skooba bags for carrying laptops we recently purchased...two of our travelers and myself recently christened our TSA approved Skooba bags with maiden voyages. Bottom line, very successful. In approximately twenty security inspections none of us have been required to remove our laptops... we [also] believe these bags will highly reduce those instances of damaged laptops while going through inspection. Keep up the good work. David CorbishleyI've been using one of these for a while now and it is great. Two nits; no bottle sleeve and the pad on the add-on shoulder strap tends to slide and curl up in use.
