While a compact carry-on and durable oversized suitcase are must-haves in any luggage arsenal, the importance of a travel backpack shouldn’t be overlooked. When used as a personal item, a backpack allows you to maneuver around an airport hands-free, and, in the case of this Vera Bradley style, it can also function as a sole piece of luggage for international trips.
The Vera Bradley Ultralight Essential Backpack has quickly become Target shoppers’ pick for a functional and spacious travel bag, including one person who said they were able to pack one week’s worth of clothes for Europe inside. Right now, you can get the stylish bag on sale for up to $148 off, which is a 76 percent discount.

The lightweight backpack comes in nine colors and patterns, including signature Vera Bradley prints on the exterior and interior of the bag. Inside, there are three compartments ideal for keeping travel essentials like a laptop, toiletries, and clothes separated and organized. Plus, there are two more pockets on the outside of the backpack for added storage space. One customer who raved about the size and style of the piece credited its “many pockets” for keeping their things organized.
Part of the convenience of using a travel backpack is how easy it is to carry, and this version also has a luggage strap so you can easily secure it to the top of a suitcase when traveling with both. One reviewer who called it an ideal pick as a weekender added that it is “comfortable to wear.”
While there are so many features that make this a smart choice for upcoming vacations, it is also a convenient bag for everyday use. One customer who said they bring this bag everywhere noted that it’s “very practical and roomy,” and another person found that the material is “easy to wipe clean.”
With plenty of summer travel still ahead, snag the Vera Bradley Travel Backpack while it’s on sale starting at just $47 at Target, and keep scrolling to shop for more travel bags.
