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