I have a power block that plugs into the wall….and it has ALL THREE cables!! USB C, Apple and US B. Insane!

Love your videos and have purchased most of the products you recommend! FYI my Samsung Galaxy has a stylus I. The bottom. If you remove it… there is a side button that will take a photo if you press it! No need to buy a separate remote from Apple!😊

I work for an airline and honestly just pay for a carry-on beforehand to avoid headache. Unless you are actually traveling light

If you are from South of the Border, you can walk right in carrying whatever you want.

I had some anti itch cream on my hands once because I was allergic to something and I had hives. Well, the cream on my hands made their machines go nuts. Even though I was TSA precheck, I was delayed for at least 30 minutes. It was a nightmare! They later apologized but I was so pissed off.

You just have to know the rules about bringing fresh foods to whatever country you're arriving into.

But.....we get TWO personal items.

I am worried about my trip to Edinburgh. From Denver with 1hr 8 min layover in IAD Washington DC. I heard united arrives on one concourse and departs internationally from another. So worried.

Some budget airlines, do you know how many bags you’re carrying, because it determines which zone you board the plane. One zone would be dedicated to people who have paid for a carry-on. So plan accordingly.

Cucumber and radish chips are my favorite. I slice radishes and Persian cucumbers salt them come lunch time they are so delicious AB’s fix my salt cravings! Plus they are crisp and refreshing.

Most of this is good but I disagree with some of your tips. I think having Internet all the time to be extremely helpful and comforting. I would never travel without an international plan especially alone. I definitely plan my transportation from the airport but buses and trains are pretty good in other countries! For instance, the train in London is great and around $20 versus $150 ride. And in Japan, the bus is easy and much cheaper than a taxi. Just like in the U.S., rideshares are sometimes better than taxis. If my choice is between walking in the dark on a sketchy street or a rideshare/taxi, I'm picking the ride every single time!!! I do agree that it's good to lie about being alone and to trust your gut! If that street gives you a bad feeling, go a different way. As for the safe, I recommend putting your small items in a plastic baggie. That way you can be sure that you got everything out of it and nothing is hiding in a corner

Lovely vid...planning on visiting later this year.

You don't need a separate bag just to bring those items through security... you typically have to remove your jacket to go through security anyway, so just pack the jacket, scan the jacket (with everything in it) on the belt at security, etc. and then put the jacket back on. The things you put into the jacket will typically be things you might want quick access to anyway (even in transit *to* the airport or when sitting in your seat on the plane), so it's easier to leave everything in there.

True!

Can you put larger liquids in your carry on?

Gave my cousin a jacket with 19 pockets and the pants i usually wear has 20 pockets 👍

Love these tips. The best one is to have a down day. Even to do washing or sit somewhere and people watch. That was so beneficial in Paris.

@GenxGypsy1968 What brand is that backpack you are showing here? Where did you get it? Tks! 👍

😊

Would you please provide a link for this jacket you are wearing?! I love all the pockets! New subscriber!

4 flights in one week. EVERY flight delayed, gate changes, sitting on the tarmac once we landed. They are a joke.

I just find it so much easier carry less

I’m also a big pocket fan! Pockets are so much better for carrying your in-flight essentials - iPad, phone, Kleenex, etc.

Agree with all these. Always trying to cut down what I take on holidays. Only taking one pair of shoes on my next trip. Comfortable and yet do not draw the eye. More room in my only carry-on. 👏🇦🇺

I’m SO EXCITED TO go to your hometown

Sounds about right.

I get pulled aside and wanded frequently. I usually wear leggings and a tunic. I take off any bulky outer wear. There is no metal on me except small earrings. They are always very nice to me.

When I travel I always keep slips of paper in my wallet that have my hotel name, address and phone number as well as paper with my emergency contact info (the person I’m travelling with AND someone at home) just in case. It especially helped having the address in Hong Kong because I had it written in English and Cantonese characters so if I got lost I could just show a taxi driver or a police officer to help me get back. I’ve only used it once but it can be a lifesaver

Always wear compression socks when flying

Great ideas & looks sis!❤

WOW. what a helpful video. I really enjoyed. You are calm, funny, and kind.

Traveling for the first time in 7 years post Covid so doing extra things for sure!!! Super relevant in 2024. So glad I found this. New subscriber here. P.S. I too went from almost black hair to totally natural salt and pepper hair and it's been the best decision EVER and you too look amazing now. Had to share that.

Emerald Isle looks beautiful! I love my e-bike so much I gave up my car! How are you from a major airport. Do you have to drive to ATL?

Hi Can u bring any size liquid in a checked bag? Also can I fly with shaving cream?😊on delta

Ha! I actually just booked on Delta Comfort + and while researching underseat bags I saw a comment in a thread which mentioned the seat I had picked at AAA had the messed up seat!!...it was on the aisle instead of the window, one row behind the first row facing the bulkhead....I freaked out, and at about 2 AM I called Delta and switched back one row!!!! WHEW! So funny that I just found this video and already found out ahead of time which you found out after you had boarded....sheer luck, on my part!! I already had found a site that ships luggage that had more info and it was also picked up by more of a camping site. You will see a lot 18x14x8 bags but the recommendation: Better--18x13x9...and EVEN BETTER--17x13x9! And, yet, I found that even that with a slightly smaller width still didn't fit on JetBlue!~ SO I suggest you read through the reviews because you will pick up tidbits of info that may save you!!! Going even a bit smaller might be the safest! I can't use a backpack, but the Lovevook has a Travel Duffle (38.99) which measures 17.5 x 14 x 7.1 which looks awesome weighing about 2.5 lbs and a slightly bigger one, too, called the Weekender (29.99) measuring 18xx13x8." I am tempted by the Duffle and pushing my luck, but there are others in the 16" range! I wish the Lovevook backpack had a cross body strap, then I would buy it in a heartbeat! It's harder to get a personal item bag than a regular carry on!!

I'm artsy, bold, eclectic, comfortable and sometimes also classic. And it's the shoes, isn't it? I always say i dont want to make a travel decision based on how my feet feel, so always comfirt first, but dang we just want to be cute, too. Currently shopping for a retro style tennie for longer walking. 😊❤

Taco Bell spicy potato soft taco - my go to.

I feel like we can keep our wallets and tickets going through security.

Great idea! Thank you!! Alternatively, just pack all those items in a sling/waist pack as this item is considered part of your clothing. That way, you have less chance of losing something during all the packing and unpacking.

Thanks for referencing the nut study. YOUR allergy should not disrupt MY life. But I'm often willing to be polite, when met with equally polite energy.

Bravo! You put in the effort and documented it in full, and concluded it was not that easy.

I have 3 more tips for you that I use. 1 I bought in Aliexpress a fisherman's jacket with no sleeves and paid someone to add more and bigger pockets, I put on top of that the warm jacket I need for the trip and hide under my sleeve a collapsible bagpack and take out my jacket and put it inside the bagpack just before entering the plane, the personal item goes on top and this smaller bag below the seat. 2 I use a neck pillow that you can fill with clothes -aliexpress and amazon-. 3 I put the bulkiest clothes in small and medium plastic bag that you can vacuum the air out of it and the pump is really small. Never in my life I've paid for extra bag or overweight.

I would rather pay for check in! What a cheapskate video!

Wonderful! Someone else who packs like me. I have a jacket like that with pockets. Also the over the shoulder bag is stowed in my underseat bag until I need it at my destination. One bag only even for overseas travel.

I got the dredded SSSS….

Is it Em-ir-atees or Emuhruts? Pronunciation
