Holiday travel is upon us and we can’t wait! Whether you’re heading somewhere domestically or internationally, a weekender bag is an absolute must-have for any sort of flyer.

For one thing, they’re versatile. If you’re travelling budget, a weekender bag is a quick and easy carry-on and can be stowed easily under most airplane seats. If you’re travelling on a full-cost carrier, you can check the bag in, too, or it can qualify as a personal item. Either way, win-win for you.

However, unlike regular bags, weekenders bags have certain criteria they need to fill in order to qualify them worthy of being purchased.

The best types of weekender bags do two things: they’re stylish and they’re functional. Because they’ll go almost everywhere with you, they’ll need to be sturdy and have enough space to fit everything you need.

To help, we’ve put together a list of the sturdiest, prettiest, and most functional weekender bags around.
