I have 3 different pipe bags that have a lined pouch for tobacco, a compartment for 1-2 pipes, and a pocket for tools and incidentals. My favorite one is the Al Pascia Curvy bag. It goes in my Timbuk2 man purse along with my other crap.
I have a Dunhill pouch I purchased in 1974. It has a central area for about 5 pipes, and side pockets for cleaners on one end, tools on the other, and a pocket on the back for tobacco. It is made from the softest kid leather. I gave never seen another like it. So, if you have one please share.
This... usually add a cob too and the pouch (in pic) and/or a ziplock, filled with a couple blends, rest on top of lighters as cushion for pipe bowls. If going away longer than a couple days a couple jelly jars and a bag of pipe cleaners go in suitcase as well.
If I'm traveling light, it's a pipe in one coat pocket and a pouch in the other. But my normal everyday pipe kit is a Stanley toolbox. It's got room for... a lot, but usually two pipes and two tins or pouches, plus pipe cleaners, spare lighters, spare pipe tools, and a lot of miscellaneous crap that has accumulated there over the years. It's all pretty useless most of the time, but every once in a while a situation pops up and I "have just the thing" in my kit. So I guess it's a purse.
I use a pencil case to hold a couple of pipes/lighters/cleaners/czech tool and small poppered tobacco pouch. Any extra tins go in my pocket/bag if needed. Looks like shit but functions well.
Been looking for something more compact that holds a pipe, accoutrements and tin together but not found anything yet.

I don't know if you can get this pencil box in Scotland. I bought mine at Walmart. I mostly use it for holding my Falcon bowls & stems. pipe cleaners, tamper and a pouch of tobacco.
Looks indestructible! Will have a lookout. The one i currently have is soft. That would be better for when/if I’m travelling again.
I always end up ignoring the paraphernalia and returning to pockets for the pipes and either a tin, a zip-lock, or both for the weed. The fitted leather pouches look beautiful, but I can't help thinking just how wildly overpriced they seem to me for what you get. For longer trips there's my suitcase, or a couple of pistol cases.
I usually tote my pipe in either a faux leather pouch that given to me as a complimentary, or a cloth pouch that came with my Chris Morgan. Hell, I've even kept it in an old sock once.
For tobacco, I'll carry it in one of the old prince albert tins that my grandfather gave me, since they'll fit in a pocket pretty easily.
All that along with a small box of matches and my grandpappy's old czech tool, and I'm pretty much set.
I'm usually able to just carry all that in my pockets, so I've never had the need for anything else.

Inside left breast pocket of sportcoat, with leather roll-up. Lighter in right outside pocket. Cigars sticking out of outside breast pocket, mostly to annoy the easily offended. For friggin' decades, man.
When I am out and about, and need to carry one-day worth of tobacco and a pipe, or two, I use my roll pouch from Hide&Drink. The same goes for weekend getaways. I am yet to figure out a solution when I travel for longer period and need to bring 3-4 pipes and a week or two worth of tobacco. For this would do the work.
