Matt’s scope looks pretty good for travel.
It basically come down to what you observe the most and pick your scope to suit that. I’ve the FSQ85, fantastic little scope and portable but at f5.3 not really suited to planets etc. Yes you can use the Tak extender to make it f8 or higher powered eyepieces but the brightness will be compromised compared to a native f8 scope with the same aperture.
The Borg scopes are pretty hard to beat for travel as they break right down , use Cannon glass, plenty of options but expensive.
Good luck with your decision
