Carry-On Only 2026: How to Travel 7-21 Days with Just a Carry-On — Tortuga, Osprey Farpoint, Peak Design

Traveling 7 to 21 days with carry-on only in 2026 comes down to three decisions: pick the right bag (Tortuga Outbreaker Pro 35L, Osprey Farpoint 40L, or Peak Design Travel 45L), respect the most restrictive route limit (Spirit charges $69 per carry-on at the gate; Delta allows 22x14x9in free), and build a 5-3-1-1 capsule wardrobe of 5 tops, 3 bottoms, and 2 shoes. Done right, this saves $100-300 in baggage fees per trip, cuts 40 minutes from airport time, and eliminates lost-luggage risk on connections.
