  1. Check airline and personal item size/weight limits — Confirm dimensions and weight for carry-on and personal item before packing.
  2. Choose a versatile capsule wardrobe — Pick neutral colors and interchangeable pieces for mix-and-match outfits.
  3. Select 3–4 mix-and-match tops
  4. Pack 2 versatile bottoms
  5. Add 1–2 lightweight layers — Include a jacket or cardigan for variable temps and airplane chills.
  6. Limit footwear to one extra pair and wear bulkiest shoes — Wear your heaviest shoes on travel day to save space.
  7. Pack underwear and socks for each day plus one spare
  8. Roll or bundle clothes to save space and reduce wrinkles — Rolling maximizes room; bundling helps keep outfits together.
  9. Use packing cubes or compression bags to organise and compress — Group outfits by day or type and compress bulky items where allowed.
  10. Pack toiletries in travel-sized containers and store in a clear quart bag (≤100 ml) — Include toothpaste, shampoo, sunscreen; place all liquids together for security checks.
  11. Pack essential medications and copies of prescriptions — Keep meds in original packaging and carry a paper or digital prescription copy.
  12. Organize electronics, chargers, and a power bank in one pouch — Include needed adapter(s) and remove chargers you won't use.
  13. Keep travel documents, cards, and a slim wallet accessible — Store boarding pass, passport/ID, and emergency card in an easy-to-reach spot.
  14. Weigh your packed carry-on at home and adjust to meet limits — Use a luggage or bathroom scale; move or remove items if overweight.
