So, to make your life easier, and to make your vacation come quicker, here is a convenient compiled list of the best type of luggage for a long vacation.

 

The Large

 

This bit of luggage is a fan favorite for the majority of the world, and it’s not hard to see why. With its simple name, sleek look, and tones of storage, it’s a great choice for many people. It’s a piece of luggage from the brand Away, and it is the largest suitcase they offer. It has 360-degree spinning wheels at the bottom for maximum maneuverability, an amazing polycarbonate hard shell, which can take quite a beating, and the interior is a compression system to make your packing so much easier. Its current price on their website is $295, which is quite pricey, but if it’s worth it for you and your vacation, then you should order one now.

 

Briggs and Riley Baseline

 

This one looks as simple as The Large, but it has a few features that some might find helpful on a vacation. The swivel wheeled bag can expand up to 2.5 extra inches, giving owners 25% more space to pack in their bag, and the greatest thing about it is that it has a cinch-down mesh garment panel lining that keeps all of your clothes and souvenirs from shaking and making a mess, it also keeps wrinkles out of those clothes. The brand, Briggs & Riley Baseline also gives a lifetime guarantee for this luggage, they are so confident in their product that if it breaks, you can either send it in to get fixed or replaced. This bit of luggage seems good if you need something a little more permanent.

 

Osprey Farpoint Trek 55 Men’s Travel Backpack

 

The Osprey Farpoint Trek 55 Men’s Travel Backpack is a great piece of luggage for all those adventurers out there who like roughing it. You can fit all your necessities in it, and wear it on your back, it’s an amazing bag that does two things for you at once. The best part of this bag personally for me is that its straps keep the weight of your back and spread it across your entire body, making the load so much easier to carry around. You won’t have any trouble with this bag, it’s efficient, easy to carry around, and big enough to carry all your necessities and your souvenirs. It’s priced at a whopping 220 dollars though, which is pretty pricey, on amazon though you can instead pay for it monthly, $36.67 a month for six months.

This bag has been tested over and over again by tons of different people, and they all conclusively say that it is an amazing piece of luggage and that they wish they had gotten it sooner. It’s made of micro-diamond polycarbonate, meaning it’s almost completely scratch-resistant, it can take a beating through the airport if it needs to. There is a side-mounted TSA lock to keep out the thieves wanting your souvenirs, which is a big relief, I always someone might try and steal my items on vacation. It also has four spinners wheels on the bottom to make it super easy to walk around with it. Another great bag to brag about to your friends on your vacation.

The colors that this bag comes in black, green, red, yellow, purple, brown, and blue. It has four 360-degree wheels on the bottom of it to make it even easier to drag around, and two handles on the top of the bag and the side. Like I said this is the most efficient mid-sized bag on the list.

The crazy price drop on Amazon went from $199.99 to $135.94, which is a saving of a whopping $64.05, or 32%. An amazing deal to match with an amazing bag, and like I said you can find it on Amazon if you need to pick up the best bag for your travels.

Samsonite does it again with this next bag on the list, this stylish medium-sized bag, that only has the color of raspberry as its choice. It’s an eco-friendly bag meant to help the planet, so if you’ve got a bit of a green thumb, this might be the bag for you. There are thoughtfully placed pockets all around it, hidden expansions, and easy-to-grip zippers that are going to be pretty tough to break. The material is made from Recylex polyester fabric, which is durable, flexible, and very environmentally friendly, as I said a second ago. This is also one of the most expensive bags on this list, but it is definitely worth it if you want to go ahead and grab it. The pricing is set at $370 dollars, but you might be able to get a discount of up to 60% on their site, so make sure to check that out.
