I’m packing. I decide to go carry-on only which I feel is a good choice for multi-stop, multi-carrier flights. Not to mention, travel to lesser improved countries (No, I’m not being exclusive just being factual, okay?)
To accomplish this, ya gotta pack agressively. Here’s a couple tips to pack Mika-like:
- 22″ carry on. No bigger than 15″ wide and VERY MAX 7.5″ thick. Why? Sometimes you get older planes, and their storage compartments are significantly smaller than the new planes and the last thing you want is ALL your luggage to be put into baggage, especially any valuables you have in your carry on.
- Pack your small items and thin garments in the outer pockets of your roll aboard that you aren’t using for important things. EX: Tank tops, undies, etc.
- Wear clothes you’ll use at your destination or for “just in case” weather so they don’t take up space in the bag. Layer so you can shed and dress down easily.
- Pack things inside your shoes in the suitcase.
- Roll everything. They take up less space and stack nicely. Another option is to buy the vacuum-bags that suck out the air and make everything thinner.
- Pack multi-purpose clothes. EX: I packed long sleeve shirts that are thin and have sleeves that roll up easily. I can wear it all day long, and then roll down the sleeves for the evening instead of having another shirt.
