I literally take one bag and it works fine. Even on 4 days. The guys rolling around with tons of baggage like they are going on a family vacation to Europe crack me up.
You're going flying, then to a hotel, then flying, then to a hotel etc. You don't need a bunch of stuff. My experience.

No reason you can’t pack 4 days worth of clothes in your rollaboard (rollerboard?) by rolling your shirts instead of folding and stil lhave room for a heavy sweatshirt / other cold weather outer garment so I’d say 2 bags.
I used to fold my shirts and use a steamer. Now that I roll them, they don’t get wrinkled and I ditched the steamer. In my cooler, headset and efb go in the storage ontop, and I’ll bring 2.5 days worth of food with ice packs in the main compartment. I found 3 days straight eating out of a microwave is depressing so I allow myself one meal off a menu (besides free / discounted breakfast) and bring plenty healthy snacks. Down 22 lbs in 3 months thanks to reeling in my food spending habits on the road.
Unless the crew is fun or entertaining. Then I’m Pac-Man Jones!!
