Getting ready for a vacation? We’re here to make sure you’re fully prepared and don’t leave anything behind. Use this perfect packing list and follow these 10 essential tips to ensure a smooth and stress-free trip.
The free travel planner that you can download below has the packing list that you can print out!!
Tips:
- Tip 1: Put everything you need to bring into categories, so you don’t forget anything!
- Tip 2: Bring packing cubes for your bathing suits, shoes, or specific items that can get wet or dirty. Setting a packing cube aside for laundry is a game-changer.
- Tip 3: Triple-check to make sure you have your passport before leaving. YOU DO NOT want to forget this because if you don’t, you NEED to drive back home and might miss your flight. TRUST ME. I almost missed my flight before…
- Tip 4: Make sure the liquids and gels are no larger than 3.4 ounces for the trip, including shampoo, conditioner, perfume, lotion, sunscreen, and toothpaste. All containers must fit into one clear, quart-sized bag.
- Tip 5: You can pack larger liquids (more than 3.4 ounces) in your checked baggage.
- Tip 6: Roll clothes to save space and prevent wrinkles!
- Tip 7: Check the weather: This helps you pack appropriate clothing for your destination. I always check to see if it will rain, even in a warmer destination that I am traveling to!
- Tip 8: If you have a black bag that will be checked, I recommend labeling your bag. Add a distinctive tag to easily identify your luggage if it gets lost.
- Tip 9: AirTags work well in suitcases for tracking lost luggage. The AirTag relies on Bluetooth signals. You can place the AirTag inside your suitcase for peace of mind.
- Tip 10: Pack laptops, cameras, and electronics that you do not want to get lost in a carry on bag.
