I have to travel this week, and I won't have time to bottle tomorrow. I currently have a saison which is "dry hopping" on lemon rind and ginger, and it has been on those flavors for a week.

Should I transfer to another carboy or can it sit on the fruit for another week (2 weeks in total)?

Should be fine. Depends on what flavor profile you're looking for. I don't have a lot of experience with lemon and ginger in beer, but I would think 7 more days won't be a deal breaker. Bottle it when you return.
