Another problem, another solution..

On my way to Sweden, I’m flying SAS. They have a 20kg limit for the luggage, and 8kg limit for cabin luggage.

When you put that together with the fact that you’re moving for at least 2 years… uuuuuu!! Not good! But let’s see where this takes me. I got a nice suitcase and a smaller one for the cabin (fits the size restrictions). Then there’s the laptop bag!

I really suggest looking carefully for light suitcases, since otherwise you will waste all that limit, no matter how easy they are on you. And don’t buy expensive ones, if they are not “steel strong”. Ground services nowadays are quite lame at airports, so you’re bags have a high chance of getting tossed. So keep them light and cheap. My big suitcase is 4kg, while the small cabin one is just 2.5kg. And they were altogether around 100€.

That leaves 20+8-4-2.5 = 21.5 kg just for me-me-me.
