10 Great Travel Bags For Your Next Family Trip

Gonex 150L Foldable Travel Duffle Bag ($40, originally $49)

Some of us like to go minimal when we travel, and there are others who have been known to overpack. This duffle from Gonex was designed to work best with packing cubes that will help you organize and edit down your looks while still leaving room for all your kid's extra toys, stuffies, and electronics. This size is 150L, but you can also snag it in 100L, 80L, 60L, and 40L.

What reviewers say: "We just completed 3 weeks traveling through Europe. & stops in 6 countries with only carry on bags and this folded up inside one of them. At the last stop we put all out clothes and 3 bottles of olive oil in this bag, then put the there souvenirs in our carry on bags. We opted to have this duffle shrink wrapped for $10 at the airport to be extra safe. It looked like a butterball turkey but worked perfectly as check on bag. Even held a pair of my husbands size 15 shoes in the side shoe pocket!!! We were unsure if this would meet our needs and it exceeded our expectations! Very well made and seems like it will last quite some time."

Landon Neoprene Carryall Bag Large ($215)

For moms who want a luxurious feel, without the thousand-dollar luxury price tag, this carryall bag from Dagne Dover will do just the trick. It comes in five solid neoprene colors and three mesh options, offering plenty of style choices. But when it comes to Dagne Dover, it's the quality and durability people love the most. This carryall has enough slots, pockets, and pouches for all your grab-and-go items, while offering a level of depth and storage other duffles just can't compete with.

What reviewers say: "I use this bag for my carry on at the airport. It easily holds my large 15" laptop, water bottle, electronics and important items I want close to me. It is very durable and packs down nicely when I store it. I love the green color and would recommend this bag!"

Bago Travel Duffel Bags ($27, originally $30)

When you've planned a longer trip, having a bigger bag that can hold more obviously makes sense. But you don't want it to be too bulky, especially if you'll be juggling kiddies, too. This weekender finds that perfect balance! With an 80L capacity, this bag has several outside pockets to help organize everything and to keep your smaller items organized and accessible.

What reviewers say: "Great, durable, large soft-sided duffel bag. I recommend getting luggage straps because the bag does not have any internal straps to hold your belongings together. If you stuff the bag full, you will not need them. The bag is very light so you are only carrying the weight of your belongings. The bag went through airport baggage with any issues. And we love that it stores in a small zipped up square."

Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Lightweight Underseat Carry-On ($85, originally $100)

What reviewers say: "I have to travel for work and a lot of our customers are in countries without direct flights from where I live. With the risk of lost or delayed luggage I wanted a piece that would not be checked that could hold toiletries my laptop and a work outfit and this fit the bill."

Vera Bradley Weekender Classic ($89, originally $135)

There are many different reasons a parent might need a travel bag. Some use them in place of a typical diaper bag, others save them for weekends aways, and others are parents who love to keep them stocked and kept in the car.

This bag is durable and stylish, with a lot of room inside for moms who favor organization. Plus, it comes highly rated by fellow moms because it's the perfect mix between a duffle bag and a weekender bag.

What reviewers say: "I use this as my personal item when flying. I stuck my large purse, laptop, make up bag, chargers, snacks, water bottle and shacket in here. I love the trolley sleeve perfect for running around the airport with a rolling carryon suit case. The shoulder strap is also perfect for solo use."

Gonex Canvas Duffle Bag for Travel ($37, originally $56)

Parents of two or more likely need to carry a lot for any travel, and this duffle has features that will make it seem like magic. For starters, it's huge, holding a spacious 50L interior. This bag can comfortably hold enough essentials for yourself and two kiddos, including snacks, and entertainment like an iPad, laptop, toys, or games.

What reviewers say: "I was looking for a bag that both provided a nice look and something durable. Extremely satisfied with this purchase as it checks both boxes. The bag provides so much space, the pockets are large, and it's a great looking bag. By feeling the material, you can tell that it is thick and will stand the test of time. If I need another travel bag, I'll be looking to find another one of these!"
