I'm a computer nut, so I've been surfing internet sites in an attempt to choose two bags for my December round trip Albuquerque/San Diego. I expect to check one bag and have one carry on. I am aware of the weight and dimension requirements and see no difficulty there. I don't know when (or if) I'll need them for future trips, so I don't want to invest my family fortune in two bags. I'm thinking a total price for both at under $150. (Did I mention I am of Scott ancestry?)
The carry on bag will contain my medications, snacks, reading material, a bottle of water and assorted odds-and-ends like band aids, etc. I'm thinking along the lines of a book bag, back pack, duffel bag...each with some outer pockets. Not seeing the need for a wheeled bag.
For the larger bag, I think one of about 32" should be sufficient. I will be staying the whole time with friends, and can do laundry as needed...so I don't need a change of clothes for each of the nine days. With this checked bag I am thinking 'wheels'. I'm also planning to buy/use TSA locks.
I'd appreciate any suggestions as to what you folks have found useful.
Fortunate my trip is basically an over nighter, leaving ABQ in the late afternoon and (hopefully) arriving in SAN around noon.
