Description
Grey plastic bag, slightly trapezoidal in shape with the top slightly shorter in length than the base. There is white piping around the edges of the 2 larger sides which also feature identical decoration. "TEAL" is painted on in large white letters (150 x 71 mm). Underneath, in blue, is "NEW ZEALAND's INTERNATIONAL AIRLINE" (222 x 9 mm). The TEAL logo of a stylised flying fish or Maroro, appears after the slogan.
A metal zipper runs across the top and part way down the sides. Just below where the zipper ends on one side, is a loop attached to the bag with a metal stud that would allow a strap to attach. On the opposite side that loop is broken.
The interior is the back of the same grey plastic that forms the body, except there is a rectangular piece of brown, white and grey plastic sewn to the bottom. The stitching is visible from the exterior base. Just inside the top are 2 rectangular cardboard supports 28 mm wide attached to the bag with metal studs that are visible from the exterior. They lie 15 mm below the white piping.
