Travel can get overwhelming, no matter where your final destination is. That’s why having a few life hacks to make the whole ordeal easier is essential. At the top of the list is having a go-to carry-on bag that is so spacious and well-designed that you can skip the bag check-in process and fees.
A few years ago, Alex Drummond discovered such a bag, which she carried back and forth from her home in Dallas to Pawhuska and on other adventures with her husband, Mauricio. The Weekender by Béis quickly became her “new favorite bag.” While it looks like a regular carry-on, she raved, "It has so much room, so much more room than you would think!"
Alex went on to call it "the perfect carry-on.” And get this: Béis just made it even better! The bestseller was recently relaunched with thoughtful new details that make it easier to travel and tote all your essentials along with you. Shall we take a look?
The new model features a frame-free opening design with side snaps, replacing the previous wire frame. Why does that matter? Well, it now gives a more accurate read of the space still available while you’re packing. That means there’s less rearranging, and it’s easier to close even when you’ve packed it to the gills.
It’s also now easier to access the bottom compartment. One of the best features of the Weekender is the separate bottom section, where you can keep shoes, toiletries, and other essentials separate. Well, now you can easily access both compartments at once, instead of tipping the top half on its side. Smart!
And there’s more! It has padded, reinforced straps and locking zippers for extra security. All of those updates are on top of the other features that made the original design so popular: laptop-friendly storage, organizational pockets, a key leash, and a trolley pass-through so it can attach to a coordinating suitcase (which, by the way, also has upgraded features).
The new Weekender comes in Alex’s favorite Atlas Pink, plus four gorgeous neutrals. It also comes in two other shapes and sizes: the Weekender Mini and the Crescent Weekender. Take a look, pick your favorite, and be prepared to travel in comfort and style. You’ll love it just as much as Alex loves hers!
