When it comes to packing for a weekend away, the type of trip you’re taking will likely dictate which weekender bag you bring. If you’re hopping on a short flight and don’t want to check a bag, you’ll probably want a suitcase that can fit under the seat. If you’re relying on trains or public transportation, something you can walk with, like a duffle bag or backpack, will likely be a better choice.
