Backpacking New York
Backpacking New York

what bag to take to new york on the airplane?
i am going to new york and my family said it was too hard last time to go to the baggage claim so we have to take all of our luggage with us. we are staying for 4 days so it won't be that much stuff. is my green north face backpack okay, or should i take a rolling suitcase. which would be easier through the airport and ecspecially through security.
also, which would look better with skinny jeans, a babydoll top, and flats.
Though a backpack may be more convenient in some situations, if you don't want to have to carry it long distances through airports, take a rolling suitcase. They are much easier to manage in airports, especially since it will probably be a bit heavy with all your stuff. Make sure you check the guidelines at this link to know what is ok in your carry on luggage.
