For one night or as an extra bag, a compact model is often enough — consider an easy-to-store option such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bymetz.nl\/en\/collections\/opvouwbare-reistassen\"\u003efoldable travel bags\u003c\/a\u003e. For longer trips, a larger capacity makes it easier to organize clothes, shoes and toiletries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso consider how you’ll carry the bag. Handles are handy for short distances, while a shoulder strap offers more comfort for longer walks. If you often fly with the bag, check the dimensions; a compact 40 × 30 × 20 cm model — see \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bymetz.nl\/en\/collections\/reistassen-handbagage-zonder-wielen\"\u003ecarry-on travel bags without wheels\u003c\/a\u003e — can work as a small personal item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich size fits your trip?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eTrip type\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eHandy choice\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eWhat to check\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShort city trip or 1 night\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompact travel bag or weekend bag\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLow weight and easy carry\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFlight with small carry-on\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCarry-on travel bag\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCheck allowed dimensions, e.g. 40 × 30 × 20 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeekend or sports trip\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMedium travel bag without wheels\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eEnough space and practical organization\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLonger trip\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLarge travel bag without wheels\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCapacity, carry options and comfortable lifting when full\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrom compact carry-on to large bags without wheels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis category includes different sizes so you never take more bag than you need.
