Abstract: A convertible travel bag includes a first compartment, a second compartment rotatably coupled to the first compartment, and a third compartment rotatably coupled to the first compartment. The second compartment and the third compartment are rotatable between a backpack mode and a side-carry mode. In the backpack mode, the first compartment is positioned between the second compartment and the third compartment, and in the side-carry mode, the first compartment is longitudinally in line with both the second compartment and the third compartment.
