I am a Dob disenter, I reckon if your family are coming over a Meade etx125 is the way to go, alt/az ready to go quickly & not bulky apart from the legs, slightly smaller than the 6se.
My etx90 fits in carry on luggage if you don't count the tripod, with the etx125 you will see a reasonable amount, & the toto is there to help you find more difficult things. At f13.7 it is real kind to eyepieces, you could get a 20mm 82 deg from Andrews for 39, or ge your family to pick you up some explore sic ep's as well
You can always get the don down the track, youll always have the etx125 as your grab go
