6 Best Pieces of Luggage for Every Type of Travel
Aqua Quest White Water Duffel: Ideal for Adventure Travel
If you’re an adventure traveler, a duffel bag is ideal for fitting those oddly shaped specialized pieces of gear. Plus, the Aqua Quest White Water Duffel is fully waterproof, not just “water resistant” like most others, making it the perfect choice if you’ll be taking it outside in all weather conditions or will be traveling via boat.
Aqua Quest is based in the Pacific Northwest, so they understand the importance of keeping those items dry. The roll-top closure offers waterproof protection that outperforms zippers, which means water — with the exception of total, extended submersion — won’t penetrate the duffel.
This bag is really light, weighing just 1.6 pounds, and measures 24 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches so it can be used as a carry-on on flights. It can be carried using handles or with a shoulder sling strap, and it’s affordable too, ranging from about $60 to $80 USD.
Travelers Choice Sienna 2-in-1 Hybrid Hard-Shell: Ideal for Business Traveler
If you travel for business frequently, you really need something that includes garment bags so you can easily hang your clothes up in the hotel, and keep your items wrinkle-free. The 21-inch upright Sienna is ideal.
It has two separate compartments, one that serves as a garment bag, and the other as your typical carry-on space. At about $60 to $89 USD, it offers a good value too.

Biaggi Contempo Foldable 22-inch 4-Wheel Carry-On: Ideal for Shorter Trips
The Biaggi Contempo Foldable is incredibly convenient for those shorter trips and ranges in price from $175 to $229 USD. It boasts a number of airport-friendly features, like four spinning wheels, front compartments and a side handle that makes it so much easier to lift up and get into that overhead bin.
If one of your biggest pet peeves is tripping over your luggage in your hotel room, you’ll especially love that it collapses to half its thickness, making it easy to roll under a bed or tuck against a hotel room closet. The interior offers a number of ways to stay organized too, with a zippered pocket panel, two zippered mesh compartments and an elastic packing strap.
