Packing Tips for Vacation, Please.

Hi PHi PearlGrace, My private messages don't send using this particular browser but the pub you want to know about is in the city of Bath I will get precise details and log in on other browser but am waiting for a friends reply on it myself. As far as packing is concerned you don't mention the length of your stay for hand baggage only but I tend to roll y clothes into a holall rather than folding and will take minimal trousers and lots of different tops that will mix and match, I don't wear makeup other than lipstick and mascara now and again so that isn't a problem and I collect freebie samples for toiletries so I am not carrying heavy there. Have a lovely trip. I hope to contact you before though. When are you travelling? Huggles Ellie :D

For me, I would roll the clothing items into really small bundle and that would save some space. Besides for the haircare or skincare items, I would separate a certain amount for the trip and put it in small containers, and that would be saving up a lot of space too!

I suggest you take a limited amount of clothes, like wear one pair of underwear and pack the other set of it. You could wear one pair of socks and pack the other pair. You could wear one t-shirt and pack another one. It would be great if you could wear a skirt or pair of trousers and pack another one. Taking a travel towel and travel washing liquid would be superb. You could take a tiny wash bag with a travel sized shampoo, toothpaste and travel toothbrush in it. I advise you take your camera in your hand bag with my purse. If you must have your passport and much money it would be worth wearing a money belt. Good luck and have a lovely trip.

That's hard to do....when I went to Europe though my daughters told me to pack light...and I was amazed at how well I did do! LOL...I did roll alot of my clothes...they take up less room and also don't get as wrinkled....I did have to check a bag as I was staying almost two weeks..

I think you should select a carry on ' hand bag ' or 'case' that has several compartments both inside and outside ( zippable ). Other than that you will be charged. Each of you take such a case, will avoid extra charge

Hey Pearl! I sure wish you could give me some tips too! I will be making a trip to Florida soon myself and I know that I won't be able to fit everything into a carryon either! No matter how long I plan on going for I just can't ever seem to pack "light"! I just don't every know what that means! I can't ever decide what to take with me so it never ends up being something that I can carry on! So I just guess I will have to give up and check my luggage as usual!

Well, hopefully the airport won't have any weird rules about what can go on a plane. Remember when they weren't letting people take toothpaste? I can't remember what had happened, but I remember a lot of common items had been banned. Anyway, I hope you guys have a good time. And if you think you haven't packed enough clothes, just remember you can always go to a laundry mat and have them washed.

That really depends on where you're going and what the weather is to be like on how much you can and can't get away with it. If your going somewhere warm and tropical, pack tank tops, sleeveless shirts, swim suits. Also, pack only a few pairs of pants/shorts that you can rewear a couple of times, or take change so you can go to the laundry mat in the hotel, or out some place for a quick wash and dry. Buy all your personal items, in personal/travel sizes. And when packing, roll all your clothes miltary style, it works to save alot of room, and you can get more in a suit case. Best of luck, and have a great vacation!
