Title: Multi-purpose traveling bag

Abstract: A lightweight traveling bag having a garment bag portion, side bag compartment portions and a briefcase compartment portion, all fabricated from flexible fabric and all of which compartments are releaseably attached to the outsides of the garment bag portion for selective use in various combinations, wherein the garment bag portion with the side bag compartments and briefcase compartment attached can be folded lengthwise to assume the size and appearance of a composite piece of hand luggage for convenient carrying. The garment bag assembly can be released for unfolding to its full length for hanging in the garment bag compartment while traveling in a commercial aircraft or for hanging in an ordinary closet, a hook being provided at the upper end of the garment bag portion for this purpose. Alternatively, the side bag compartment portions can be separately attached to each of the outsides of the briefcase compartment portion to provide a hand luggage assembly that can be used independently of the garment bag portion, and which is of such overall size as permits stowing under the seat of a commercial aircraft.
