replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: Pack only what you need, and if room is tight in your carry on then roll your clothes. #InspireToWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1: We are now a fully carry-on family. We (family of four, kids ages 8 and 11) completed a 6-month trip with "only" carry-on. I say only because some regional flights only allow 7kg as carry-on. Really? We each had a small backpack and a small roller suitcase. #InspireToWander

A2: I like to plan out my outfits. A-type I know, but it helps figure out exactly what I need to bring, what I can wear multiple times, and how to maximize my space. #InspireToWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1 mostly the first type but next time I'm going to a difficult destination to have a huge suitase with me. So. I'll guess a one month trip to Europe with carry on is my next challenge! #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @TravelsEndless @OliviaRutt Same. There is so much space might as well bring everything you ever wanted lol. #inspiretowander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A2) I have started to wait until closer towhen I leave to pack so I have more accurate forecast and discard extra layers if need be. Inevitably I alwayd pick destinations with unpredictable weather 😂 #InspiretoWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: I have a packing list that I am very strict about. The kids know how many shirts, pants, etc they need for each day of a trip. By having a packing list you don’t end up overpacking in case you forget something. #inspiretowander

Even when I try to pack light for a road trip. this is still my thinking 😹 #InspireToWander https://t.co/tqFrvL1ivR

replying to @OliviaRutt @OliviaRutt @KaraDiDomizio I am not sure if it is "the worst" since i can think of several other airline issues that are way worse and fighting to find a spot to put your bag in the bin and then having to stuff it under your seat and have no leg room for 5 hours. Those leg cramps are bad #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2 What has helped me is making a list of what I’m going to do each day. This is especially helpful when I have to travel with formal wear. If I know that my room has a washer & dryer, I pack fewer pieces of clothing. #InspiretoWander
OliviaRutt
replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @TravelsEndless TRUTH! Like I didn't even know where things were coming from. LOL #inspiretowander

A2 - The only way I can restrain myself is by remembering that if I pack too much stuff, I won't have room for shopping. #InspiretoWander
IBBtravel
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: Try to coordinate clothes so they can be worn as multiple combos. Also always bring more than one pair of pants in case something happens to them 😹 & keep your shoe options to a minimum - don't bring a pair you'll only wear once! #InspireToWander

@leisurelambie @inspiretowander Making lists is a great start, even better when you’re done packing and realized you’ve actually followed the list!

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1 check in but I wish I could carry on. People who travel for years in just a carry on are my idols. #inspiretowander

replying to @KaraDiDomizio @KaraDiDomizio Haha yes! I never pack more than a day out TBH. I do my laundry in vast amounts for options but always back within 24h of leaving for this reason! #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel Well, I like to think of myself as a carry on person but the truth is almost everything on this cart 👇🏼is mine 😕The kids even had only 1 bag each! My husband in a saint. #InspireToWander

@inspiretowander A3: my travel power strip. When outlets are a commodity in airports and some hotel rooms, it’s a great way to reteach people how to share.

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A3) Closed toed and weather resilient shoes - and socks! Even if anticipating wearing sandals, you never know when weather will change or if you will wind up walking more than whats comfortable in sandals. #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: We learned about packing cubes and stuff sacks. Those were great to keep things compressed and separate, including dirty laundry. #InspireToWander
