Travel Packing Tips

Travel Packing Tips

When you are flying somewhere and especially if you have a few stopovers, divide the clothes between different suitcases/backpacks/bags etc. If one person’s luggage doesn't arrive at the destination, they'll still have clean clothes

When packing to head to the beach consider pre-packing whatever you might need at the beach into a beach bag inside your backpack or suitcase. Especially if travelling with kids, this will prove a timesaver!

When packing a flashlight or any other item with batteries, turn the batteries around so that if the item is accidentally turned on, you won't empty the batteries.

Keep any medication and important papers in your carry-on bag. On long flights with multiple stopovers packing a fresh change of clothes is a good idea as bags tend to get delayed or lost on long haul, multiple stop flights. You don't want to end up stuck without medication; clothes or your important papers even if it is just for a few days.

Somehow it seems that bags will hold more if the clothes are rolled rather than folded. If you roll in tissue paper, the clothes will also get less wrinkled.

Children appreciate cold drinks think of using a six-pack cooler as a toiletry bag. Once you arrive at your destination and unload your toiletries your 'toiletry bag' guarantees cheap cold drinks on the beach, no matter how remote.

It is always handy to have a few plastic bags around certain items, especially toiletries. Not only does it counter any leaking, the bags can also come in useful to keep dirty clothes in, as garbage bags or even as a makeshift umbrella. Ziplock or other airtight plastic bags are the best. Large orange garbage bags make great rain coats on hiking tours.

Pack only what you know you will use and plan to wash on the road. To cut down on the wash loads pack color safe mixes and match clothing.
