Are you planning on going away on vacation this summer? Do you have vacation plans at some point during the year?
My family and I really don’t travel. In fact, I haven’t been on a plan since 2015. The first, last and only time my kids have been on a plan was when they were 2 and 4 1/2 years old. They are 18 and 21 years old now. Needless to say it’s been a while.
Back when my family and I went away on vacation (Disney World) we packed EVERYTHING. I think we even packed the kitchen sink! LOL!
When I was traveling doing press junkets a few years back, I learned to pack lighter and more efficiently. The key is to not pack too much and plan accordingly as far a what you are going to wear. I also found that rolling your clothing up into a “tube-like” shape helps you to fit more things in your luggage. I also use the inside of my shoes to hold things like beauty products and/or jewelry.
Call ahead to see if the hotel you are staying at has a laundromat on site or near by. If it does, you can take along less clothing and wash it while you are at the hotel so you don’t have to pack as much.
Don’t forget about the TSA rules too. You want to comply with them so that you are not delayed in any way.

I may just have so swing by my local T.J. Maxx to check out their luggage. I am in dire need of a new carry-on luggage. Mine belonged to my mom, so it’s probably 25 years old (give or take) and it’s surely showing its age. I’m in need of something new, perhaps something colorful and/or with a cool design on it. My current carry-on is plain, boring, black.
These items are not only great for traveling by air, but also by car or if you are planning a camping trip for your next vacation.
