You ought to just keep a bag packed. But I guess you’ve already thought of that, huh?

The problem is the wide variety of packing I have to do.

1. If it's a conference or meeting, 2-3 days, no suit, I can pack my small Skyroll. (Tried the suit in the Skyroll for a recent EU meeting -- nope, it's too hard on it.)

2. If it's my spring/fall week-chock-full-o-meetings, dockers & shirts, I take the larger rollaboard.

3. If it's winter/summer w-c-f-o-m with a suit for the President's Reception, it's the suiter plus the smaller rollaboard.

4. If it's annual ISO meeting overseas (like Cairo was) it's the suiter -- unless LoM comes, when it's the suiter and larger rollaboard. And if we take an extended vacation, add the smaller rollaboard too.

5. If it's my quarterly European committee meeting, or a formal international conference, it's the suiter.

Part of the problem is that this suiter is the folding "garment bag" style which I pretty much have to check. I recently saw one I like, more of a hard rollaboard style with a special compartment for the suit, but it's close to $500.

I have a suitcase, (soft sided) that has a suit holder in it. It does a better job of keeping my suits neat when I travel then the a suit carrier does and it cuts down on the luggage.
