Description
Grey vinyl bag with adjustable grey vinyl strap. Bag is trapezoidal in shape as bottom is slightly wider than the top. There is white piping around the bigger sides. The decoration on these 2 sides is identical - a white circle with "TEAL / 21 / YEARS" in grey below the TEAL Maroro logo (flying fish) all surrounded by a border in blue of stylised animals and symbols. Below is written in blue "NEW ZEALAND'S INTERNATIONAL AIRLINE". The TEAL logo in yellow is there but faded significantly. A metal zipper runs across the top and down the sides slightly. The interior is unlined but there is an extra rectangular piece of plastic reinforcing the bottom. On one of the zippers there has been repairing done with 2 types of tape.
