Greetings,

I took my eBags weekender to Paris last March and it worked fantastic. It was heavy to schlep, but I managed. I was able to drop it off at hotel as room was not ready until later in the day. I have a HP 17" laptop and a HP backapck. I'll need them both when I fly across the pond in a few months time.

I'll be there for three weeks in London, Paris, Netherlands, Belgium, and Berlin. These are the main places I want to visit. Flying into London and leaving from Berlin.

Mostly visiting WWI and WWII sites and memorials and visiting friends.

I also have a TravelPro wheeled carryon.

I am now physically fitter than last year. Lost a boatload of weight . I do not want to check anything, but with a LCC, they have strict carryon limits.

I am asking for advice on what luggage I should use. I could if necessary buy a laptop shoulder bag and not use the HP backpack. But, then I would use the TravelPro wheelie.

I have since learned how to pack smarter thanks to folks here on FT.
This trip means a lot to me, as there are things I was not able to do in Paris last year.
