In most cases, the answer is yes, as airlines consider it a personal item, a smaller bag that fits under the seat. So, you can certainly wear a crossbody bag on the plane to store your in-flight essentials.
Or, better yet, if you are lucky, they will view it as a part of your attire, in which case you can carry your shoulder bag on board alongside your carry-on and personal items. No added fee! But be aware that this is not always the case, so you should check with your airlines beforehand.

As the name implies, a sling bag is worn across your body with a single strap that lays diagonally from shoulder to hip (and thus better security). Their sizes are often on the smaller side. Most people use this type of bag for active or crowded environments thanks to added security from them clinging close to your body.
A shoulder bag, on the other hand, comes with one or two straps and are designed to be carried over one shoulder. The design and size varies greatly, from 3L to 10+L, from casual every use to formal setting. As they often hang down at the side or hip, they might put more strain on one side of the body if overloaded.
While sling bags are often used for light travel, sports, and quick access to essentials; shoulder bags, however, serve a broader range of purposes, from fashion accessories to practical work bags
Yes, they do, especially since the viral Uniqlo sling bag took the world by storm in 2022. So sling bags are not only still in use, but they've actually seen a surge in popularity in recent years, especially among younger demographics.
