Best Backpack to Buy for Travelling in 2025

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to be travelling soon and wanting a decent size backpack to fit all the gear I will need to take. Tossing up between the Osprey Fairview Wheeled 65L and the Osprey Sojourn 60L. Anyone had experience with both of these bags? Or can you recommend another one?

The Sojourn looks like it has more ground clearance for hauling over uneven ground but is a kilo heavier but looks and is a tiny bit smaller than the Fairview. The Fairview looks awkward on the model on the osprey site. I'm only around 5ft1 so don't want anything too big for when I have to haul it around on my back lol

Cheers and thanks in advance for any help offered.

Check the Black Friday sales right now, Amazon have some great deals on bags.
