A couple of years ago we flew to Newfoundland. I wanted to go light and just one bag would have to suffice for the trip. I used it as my carry on bag in the multitude of planes we had to take there and back.
I took my 18-135 and 55-300.I also stuffed in ...as they are so small my 40 F 2.8 and 70 F 2.4 Limiteds. I took the two Limiteds as they are great for indoor, available light pics. I didn't take my 360 flash, just used the camera flash from my K5. The K5 as the only body I took.
I was thinking of taking a second camera, just in case...which would of been my small Canon G 12, but decided...no..as my bag was getting too full.
It worked out well, but the lens I used 90 % of the time was the 18-135.
I've never been to Switzerland, but have been to Scotland. Sprawling landscapes, ancient castles, mountainous regions would require your Sigma wide angle (17mm)...but you also have a nice portrait lens at the other end of that zoom (50mm)...so for me that would be a lens I would pack.
But if you see some wildlife or something beyond your reach with a 17-50...then something like the 55-300 would be nice to have available.
