10 Tips to Help you Pack Like a Pro with ONLY a Carry On!!

[@zlatinkaquinones3733]

I save all theSee-through bags that my pillowcases come in sheets all of them the ones with the zipper and use them when I go on trips

[@SermonsSubtitled]

What a great !!

[@babycakes8434]

I have been using those for years💖💖💖💖I am glad I am not the only one😂

Me too!!!!

[@hannadatojaafar5880]

That's a brilliant idea!! Thanks

[@jam4448]

Regarding the sample sizes for toiletries, you can also use your regular sized items decanted in travel size containers. That way you don't buy a travel size version everytime! 😊

[@ninaizzy2223]

Janine de Mesa take them from hotels then you get a collection over time, also the hotels don’t reuse them anyway x

[@christudor2738]

Will save you money if you decant in travel bottles since those travel size items are pricey!

[@lorasantiago4717]

Lived in Europe (France and Italy) for almost 5 years. While some of this is good advice, a lot of it is hype and opinion. Modest and elegant is good advice; however, it is important to dress comfortable for a lot of walking. For the girly girl that spends a lot of time and money on clothes and makeup about to travel to Europe, feel free to follow this advice. For every other female, you absolutely do not need to take all of this fashion advice to heart. More important than fashion is how you carry yourself. I agree with the comments about loud voices: tone it down so you don’t stick out. Be polite and open-minded. Be aware of your surroundings. Don’t walk around on the streets of cities like you are in a theme park. I think it’s more important to blend in with your body language. European women definitely go hiking, too. Spin your backpack around so you don’t get pick-pocketed.

[@Pluscelamemechose]

Amen.

[@alisonarthurs4317]

Another packing tip I use is to pre-plan outfits so I don’t use items randomly and end up with clean clothes that don’t go together. 😂 I actually bring a sheet with photos of the outfits to keep track. 😊

[@DeedeeEntertainment]

Love these ideas! I invested in a black-themed ensemble of rayon/synthetic dresses, a soft flared blazer, similar to your lightweight black layers ensemble that roll up to nothing, never wrinkle! And are soo comfortable. The black jacket has a pop of colors on the bottom flare,, so it matches black-based multi color dresses, plus bright scarves dress everything up and double as blankets, or sarong-style cover up, and hide the mini-cross-body bag. And it's thin enough to wear under the trench without bulkiness. I had to travel suddenly for 2 month trip when a family member was hospitalized, and one leather duffel had like 10 mix and match outfits. Also, your advice is especially useful for suburbanites who aren't used to city living. After many years living in NYC, basics like comfy closed toed, light-weight leather walking boots and trenches are must-haves, and never sandals nor flip flops outside in the urban streets. (I'm from Florida near the beach where we live in flip flops, but never use them in the city areas), I consider 9 West leather mules a staple so you can "forget your feet" on schlepping trips. 🤗 I also have Big Hair that takes hours to dry, and can't wash it to often, so will begin a trip fresh washed and braided, and reset and fluff as days unfold, bringing only conditioner to reset my curls, so I don't have to carry 5 lbs of hair products 😂 Thanks again! Love your vibrant spirit, and your terrific polished style!

[@gracemurray1375]

My luggage got lost going to and coming home from Portugal the first time we travelled there and the pictures of the suitcase were invaluable. When there, it was returned to me within 36 hours. When I returned to Canada it took 5 days. I also learned to make sure I have my toothbrush/paste in my carryon along with a change of underwear and a fresh light t-shirt!

[@Cindy-bee]

That is exactly why I only do carry on

[@araseleprieto1459]

Thank you for this tip! Traveling soon so I’m packing extra in my carryon

[@kathleenmathews6096]

I’ve learned to put a change of clothing in my husband’s bag aNd he does the same in mine.

[@gayleritter1199]

It's amazing how much makeup, moisturizer, etc. you can put into eye contact containers. You can label them or color code them with a sharpie. I do what you do by keeping makeup separate from bath and other toiletries, makes it so much simpler. Throw in some S hooks to use if you have to wash out something and hang in shower. I make packing a fun career, ha. Pack your shoes in those plastic bags that we all throw away. Every time I order something, it comes in a bag so I save several for shoes.

[@kimberlys5715]

Gayle Ritter S hooks-brilliant!

[@pattorelli3451]

I pack my cosmetics in my Louis Vuitton Pochette Accessoire (any pouch style bag with a long strap will work). When I arrive at the destination, I empty the bag where I plan on doing my makeup and then have a compact handbag to use for sightseeing or evening.

[@grumpyschnauzer]

These were so great! I used to pack this way when I traveled a lot but then with the pandemic I stopped traveling and all of sudden I didn’t know how to pack anymore! Recently traveling back home for a month via road trip, I filled a giant size suitcase with my whole closet because I was too overwhelmed to “pack smart”. The thing was so heavy and big… I had to drag into each hotel each night we stopped… people must have thought I was such a princess. It was embarrassing. This video reminded me of some of the strategies like the scarf thing and tennis shoe options. Also, I’ve learned that packing cubes by type (pants in one, shirts in another, workout in another) was a little difficult when it came to being able to see what is in each. I wear a lot of black and unless I had a distinctive color poking through (pink workout bra) I would forget which cube was for what. I recommend buying a few different colors cubes to color code the different types (pants is the blue one, workout is the pink one, etc).

[@katalingerstenberger5866]

I pack exactly like you and love it! Carry on only, plus the 2. bag, in my case, I adore the Longchamp expandable bag. Also; I, too always pick a good base color to make it easy and versatile. Love my packing cubes, too. Finally; so glad to see you using shoe bags. I can’t stand when I see people just shoving their shoes next to undies or other clothing items! Think of all the public toilets you have to enter w those shoes,when traveling, people!!! 🤢 Great great video!👍🏻☺️Erin covered EVERY detail!

[@BusbeeStyle]

That is so true, it is gross to think of all the places your shoes have been! xo

[@cristinasujoy]

I bought shower caps in bulk and i use each cap to cover a shoe. Thin, light and disposable.

[@vanimaduray5473]

Awesome video! The best tip ever was to put plastic wrap over the opening of any tube or container (shampoo, moisturiser etc) and screw the lid shut to prevent spillage. Works every time! Also rolling small clothes is an excellent space saver =)

[@BusbeeStyle]

That's a wonderful idea! xo

[@cazcann4188]

Vani Maduray - I have a solid shampoo bar (from Lush) so one item less to leak, reserved for holidays.

[@yogagirlification]

Another great thing about using packing cubes is that if you are frequently on the move for your trip, the cubes can stay in your case and become a drawer-like system to keep everything organised and in place. Alternatively, if staying somewhere for a bit longer and you want to unpack into a wardrobe, simply lift out each fully packed cube and place in wardrobe, no need to handle piles of clothes, takes only seconds to do and you can get on with the fun things in life! Repacking is also a cinch!

[@monyflo]

Great video Erin. The best I've seen for traveling tips and essentials. I wish you would do a capsule wardrobe video for a week long business, with 2-weekend leisure trip. 🥰. In early spring. Thank you.

[@54Mello]

I like to pack with the “clean/dirty cubes” from Eagle Creek no need for laundry bag. When your clothes gets dirty you flip the cube over and put your clothes on the dirty side. The cube remains the same size all the time.

[@zerozero9085]

In my experience, just using double-zip lock bags of various size works best - light weight, clear, spill proof, takes less room, and is hugely less expensive. There are super size available, great for clothing, and they can all be rolled up tight, the air is expelled, and then zipped. Works like a space bag.

[@chelsabrinkman4076]

Zero Zero I couldn’t agree more. I’ve yet to buy packing cubes because I haven’t found anything that can compare to the benefits of various sized ziplocks.

[@jolenedoktorczyk5124]

I agree, I used to use zip locks then “upgraded to packing cubes”… I have gone back to ziplocks.

[@sherunswithscissors]

@@jolenedoktorczyk5124 - have you tried compression packing cubes? They are next level!

[@ds2tra]

I use gallon-size Ziplock bags for my toiletries and makeup. It's perfect for makeup because I can see exactly what I'm trying to get.

[@chelsabrinkman4076]

Also, the two gallon size ziplocks are great for shoes and dirty laundry. I use various size ziplocks instead of packing cubes. Great for organizing, they’re clear so you can see through them, and if anyone has ever watched their bag get rained on on the conveyor belt... yeah, you’ll want ziplocks.

[@kimberlys5715]

Abigail R. Torres Reporting I LOVE gallon sized Ziplock bags! I pack my outfits in them x protects them from rain, spills & smelling like “airplane” / exhaust fumes.

[@aquiconfeya]

Abigail....gallon size bags works better than those vacuum bags, and super cheap too. I use those too.

Ha. After asking you to do this, this pops up in my feed. I saw that you responded that you had travel videos, but I didn't have to look for them. I'm new and learning so much.

[@BusbeeStyle]

This is one of the videos that I recommended to you yesterday. I hope you found it helpful! xo

[@Purse.911]

Great idea, just keep in mind the sizes of the person changes the amount of clothes you can carry. a size 2 is way less fabric than a 16!!!!

[@BusbeeStyle]

That is true!

[@xWhereswaldo]

I'm a size 16/18 and do carry on only, one trip was for 3 weeks, had no problem, even some extra room for souvenirs on the way back. You just have to be mindful of what you're packing.

[@bri2293]

Yes same! I’m going on vacation for a month and only taking a carryon and I’m a 16/18

[@prayonkreutz2398]

& the weather! A size XS sweater is less bulky than an XXL!

[@sarahbrown2518]

Im a size 14-16, and I can pack 7 outfits, 3 pairs of shoes, hair tools, make up, bras/undies/socks, with no issues. For work, I can pack four suits, without an issue as well as everything else mentioned above. Size doesn't matter. How you pack, does.

[@Avez007]

This is the best packing video I’ve seen so far. Lots of great tips. Thank you.

[@WittyOneMN]

Great tips, Erin! Definitely goiing to get some packing cubes! One good thing to remember when choosing your carry-on is the weight of the bag itself. The heavier it is, the less you can pack. I'm due for a new carry-on and always need to remind myself of that little tidbit. Between your blog on what to pack and this video, I'm going to actually attempt to do just a carry-on for my trip next month....who doesn't love a challenge!?! Lol. Thanks so much for all this great advice!

[@MHM-i2o]

Just about everywhere outside the USA, there is a 7 kg limit for carry-on bags. I can't tell you how many Americans I see with their carry-on bags who have complete breakdowns at the check-in counter when they are forced to check their bags often at exorbitant cost. If this is really a once in a lifetime trip, check luggage (pre-book if this is a paid option) and even bring a separate bag for all the souvenirs you're going to buy. It's worth the extra money! Also, many low-cost carriers do not allow a second personal item... I found this out the hard way on Ryan Air when I had a rolling carry-on and a structured handbag. I agree with everything about packing cubes and separate bags for toiletries, cosmetics, electronic chargers, etc.

[@helendavies1326]

Also different airlines specify different sizes for carry on. BA is very generous- huge case and large bag as carry on. Ryan air and Easyjet only allow 1 carry on and it's smaller than the BA allowance. I'm a large lady but find the smaller bag ample for 2 weeks in the summer on Greek Islands. Easier for transporting onto ferries and other transport too

[@bratgirltedi]

Oh my, i am doing right with my packing! I almost do what you listed here! Awesome video. I really like the presentation. And just to share that if some are into black luggage, they can always put a luggage cover. It is a stretchable fabric with nice and colorful prints that will be cute to carry around. I got a Loqi brand. Very durable. And cubes, yes! 😍

[@lifewithklc]

This was so on point. I recently did a nine day trip to Spain (same suitcase even, but the white one) using this method and it totally works.

[@angelawallace7098]

This is good for long haul flights. But for short cheap flights in uk there are stricter rules.... For easyJet (uk firm) unless you pay extra you actually only get one bag allowance, for other basic flights the 2nd bag is only a small bag. Basically make sure you know your allowance seen so many people caught out on this.

[@Courtneyburns90]

That's what I was thinking.

[@jenniewren9351]

Angela Wallace I agree, definitely couldn't bring the bum bag too! The British economy flight companies will charge you for them or make you transfer items into hold/checked in luggage. So if you're going to trip around Europe be careful and check for each airline.

[@ellenhartley4471]

I’ve flown with easyJet often I asked them If I could take two and they said yes

[@triciab5911]

Absolutely agree. This video will not work for travellers on Ryanair and Easy Jet in the uk and Europe. Baggage rules are different.

[@nikkiwatson500]

Hi Erin:-) What I do when I pack is to try on clothes to avoid overpacking. I roll up my clothes to fit more in, and I also have to do a practice pack.

[@deborahlindsay3670]

Please consider doing more layering videos with lists. A few months ago I just bought the tops on your list and they work like a charm. More please!

[@KellyG-r9x]

Disposable plastic hair caps are perfect to wrap shoes in and tiny samples of shampoo, conditioner, etc are great because your toilets bag empties out as your travel

[@hizzchek]

I recommend the Lo & Sons Catalina Deluxe Tote Small for your second, under the seat bag. It’s the same size as the one you showed, but it has a separate bottom section, and a slot/sleeve to slip it over the handle of your roller bag so it doesn’t flop off. Also a super durable canvas. I’ve been traveling for a long time and have tried all sorts of bags - this one is the best.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Can’t wait to check it out! Cute too??

[@hizzchek]

@@BusbeeStyle It's a more casual looking bag, because of the washed canvas, but I think it's still cute. It comes in several colors - I went with the green and really love it. I think you'd like the bottom section to separate things a bit, but the top section is still plenty large enough. I call it my Mary Poppins bag, because it's amazing how much I can fit in there.

[@debbiegibson3604]

Some great ideas. I wish you would do a look book on the outfits that you wore on the trip.

[@judegould8743]

Linen dresses are great to travel with especially for Rome . You rinse out at night and hang straight away and do NOT iron as that is the look . When you hang the dress up when damp just give it a good shake and pat down and by the morning the wrinkles will be a lot less but please don’t iron . Take a couple of hangers in the bottom of your bag NOT metal if ‘carry on ‘as the ones in hotels are often attached to the rail in the closet .

[@Del8888San]

True fact: I was watching your video, stop the video, go on Amazon, buy the packing cubes, and go back to the video 😂😂😂. Thank you! Safe trip to all who read this!

[@Shaaala]

Regarding the luggage scale - to leverage the usage of this single item, consider having 3in1 Digital Luggage Scale with Torch and Powerbank. So useful! There are many types on the market.

[@ibrudejude]

I travel sooo much. I love the packing cubes. I have alwaz separated my items. I use the Ziploc baggies. They come in so many sizes. You can push the air out before you seal them.

[@DuvaLH3]

I love that you referred to your blog as “pretty amazing”. Heck yes to being proud of your work! 👊🏾

[@kathleenmathews6096]

I have packed items I intended to donate ( still nice, just ready to pass them along). As we travel and buy souvenirs, I leave the clothing items behind. At the end of the trip I have my nicer clothes plus new items.

[@nancyharris9909]

Erin, these tips are great...thanks so much! I have an upcoming trip so this will come in handy. I use to travel extensively for work and it was always a bit tricky with business attire. The packing cubes are a must have and utilizing a color theme...I just jazz up my outfits with accessories. I also never travel without my Longchamp...love it.

Loved this video Erin !!!!! So many great tips !!! My husband and I travel often and always try to only have carry-ons when going to our destination, especially when traveling out of the USA, coming back we always utilize the packable bag that fit inside our suitcase and check one of the bags. We also carry a rubberized cord to hang our freshly washed laundry items from the hotel sink. I try to remind myself that I can purchase things at our destination like lotion and tooth paste, etc..... Things that I use in big quantities if we traveling over 3-4 weeks. Love your channel !!!!!! Thank you !!!!!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Yes! It is so smart to remember that you can purchase things once you arrive! xo

[@1Mybosslady]

Hooray! Thank you for the packing guide. I have the hardest time packing light. Thanks Erin❤️

[@angakingtutube]

Thanks for the video. My carry-on 360 degree wheel luggage is fabric and is super lightweight, less than 4 lbs. I make sure than I can put this luggage in the overhead compartment by myself. I lay everything out on the bed what I'm packing and take a picture. I roll my clothes and put them in ziploc bags instead of packing tubes so I can see everything. I take a picture of everything after they're in ziploc bags ready to get in the luggage. It's amazing how much space I can save. I never pack too much stuff for a month's travel to Europe to save space for souvenirs. Of course, it helps that I'm a petite small frame woman. But I also bring workout clothes.

[@laurastronach1865]

Our family with kids travels a lot through the year and we pack with packing cubes just like this and it works flawlessly. I will add we have been stuck or held over on many trips and missed flights. We each take a jack on our person or in the backpack (Tunmire is fantastic) in a small pack cube we each have one change of clothes, one person (usually mom carriers very basic toiletry kit for all) Each person is responsible for their backpack and then their activities. My kids started this in pre-K and elementary and are not allowed to complain about carrying their stuff. Also everyone has their on water bottle and simple snack. This cuts down on excessive junk you have to keep up with on plane.

[@Sistacurls]

Wow! What a great informative and helpful video. Thank you!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thank you! xo

[@ktkitty1903]

I love the suggestion of deciding on a color palette. I'm older so I want to pack as light as possible. So I am always looking for light luggage.

[@heyjenknee]

My tips: I tie a cloth ribbon (the same type/color) to each item of baggage to easily see it from a distance. I put my clothes in vacuum sealed bags to save room and to keep my clothes safe from any possible leakage, etc.. Before waiting in the security line I have put my electronics, liquids,etc in an easy carry collapsible bag to quickly and easily put in the security bins and to quickly leave the line after security.

[@chantaletremblay5206]

Merci pour ce vidéo! J'irai en Europe pendant trois semaines ce printemps et vous m'avez donner plein d'idées.👍💝

[@alisonarthurs4317]

My proudest pro-packing experience was a trip I took to Arizona. The temps ranged from 30 degrees to 90 degrees on different legs of the trip. I packed the heavy coat and warm clothes for the Grand Canyon and pressed them flat in a space bag to place at the bottom of the suitcase. Then I packed the shorts and lighter items for Phoenix on top. I didn’t touch the space bag until that portion of the trip. Worked out great.

[@shayoga4805]

Yes!! Packing squares are a must!!! I also always wear my bulkier shoes on the plane and pack a pair of flip flops for a quick trip down to the pool, ice machine, or to grab breakfast at the hotel. For my second bag I looked for one with a trolley sleeve so it slips over the suitcase handle.

[@SusannaBoyd]

Bonus tip: use a pill organizer to bring medications that you may need on your trip. Things like Imodium, melatonin, and Tylenol are super handy to have. A pill organizer is small and refillable

[@bratgirltedi]

I did this once but some meds i brought didn't have a name on the pill. I got confused. 😁 now, I put mine in a small mesh bag together with some band aids

[@vickifreeman02]

I maybe wrong on this but you must carry medications in their original packaging with all labels. It is illegal and dangerous to use pill cases

[@ItsMyLifeDaralynn]

@ Susanna Boyd, Respectfully, that's not a good idea when traveling, because medications are supposed to be in it's original containers. You can possibly get arrested for possession of drugs. Especially when traveling out of the country. Although it could be a Tylenol or a prescription from a licensed doctor. Just a friendly tip... Hugs

[@gailcarsten7903]

I have never had that be a problem. Went to Europe multiple times and never take meds in original packaging. Takes up too much space.

[@katem6861]

You could always take photos of the RX labels and pills in bottle, for identification,if needed but I’ve not had problems

[@22304abc]

The latest change I've made for travel day is wearing pants that don't hit the airplane bathroom floor. For me I wear comfy Nic & Zoe leggings, j crew knit tunic, extra large scarf, outerwear layers so I don't pack. Bare face with simple moisturizer to keep face from drying out during flight time.

[@annniethamer7893]

You came up in my feed and I am so happy!!!!! Automatically subscribed after looking at your channel. Your videos are so refreshing 😍❤️😍❤️

[@retireeontheroad4934]

I like to pack skirts/pants and tops rather than a dress, especially if every top goes with every bottom and vice versa. That way you have more outfits but if you do bring a dress you may be able to wear it like a skirt with a t shirt that you tie at the waist. I also like to bring t-shirts that have a V-neck. You can wear it backwards giving you two shirts in one. For cooler climates a cardigan is nice - wear it open with t-shirt or turtle neck, wear it closed on its own like a v neck , tie it at the waist or wear it backwards for crew neck at he front and you could leave a few buttons undone at the back for a sexy look. A shirt dress can be a dress with or without a belt but can also be worn like a kimono over jeans or leggings. Versatility is the key to packing light. I received the AWAY carry on for Christmas with the battery embedded and accessible while waiting for your flight.

Wow! You thought of everything (including the links - thank you), great video! My husband and I traveled to Europe over Christmas to see our son and D.I.L. and I essentially did everything you mentioned, minus the cubes (but, I need them). It was a challenge, but my all black wardrobe and shoes did the trick. I used scarves and hats to switch things up. I also wore a black puffer vest to help extend my options. I wore it under my coat on the plane and it doubled as a pillow.👍🏼 😁

[@mcd5478]

SO excellent!!! 💗 I use a lot of these tips but think I may take advantage of the fact that the belt bag is back in style and invest in one!

In addition to leaving expensive jewelry at home, I would also advise considering leaving expensive handbags/obvious designer brands displayed when visiting second and third world countries.

Honestly this was the best packing video I've ever seen. And I've seen a ton of them. You covered everything (except snacks!) I love my packing cubes and wouldn't travel without them. I put a lot of small items like first aid stuff in zip lock bags since they are lightweight and you can see what's inside at a glance. Since I'm older and 5'2", I can't reach or have the strength to put my carryon in the overhead . My husband has shoulder problems so he can't help either. Sometimes there will be a taller person who can help me but you really can't count on that and the flight attendants can't help you. So that has been a big problem. Any suggestions other than checking the bag? I hate to check a bag on any trip but especially one with having to change planes on an international flight. I like the idea of packing a duffle for purchases and then checking it on the way back--only have to pay a baggage charge once. Thanks again for this really helpful video.

Great tips. Bought Samantha Brown bags in houndstooth & best purchase I made for traveling. Used my carry on only for a two week Italy trip ( had the matching shoulder bag). Try to keep one or two color schemes & never over pack. Just bought the waist purse yesterday for 2 weeks in Ireland this summer. I never stay in the same spot more than one or two days so traveling ubber light is my M.O.

I usually check in one larger luggage ( depending where I was going), one carry on, and my hand bag. Yeah, a lot of bags! But that carry on can collapse on top the larger luggage sitting on, with a back slider to secure it. Basically I just lug around one large, and my handbag. That carry on that I've can slide under the bottom of the seat in front, that's really cool, to rest my legs, as well as keeping them close. Those packing cubes are really handy, organize, and keep things in place. Those Bose sleeping head thing is really cool. I would love to look into that, as I'm a real sensitive light sleeper. Thanks for sharing that. It's so NICE to see your version in type. Wish I had done a recording when I was traveling.. 😅 Bon voyage ✈ (whenever that's going to be)

This was an awesome video. I will be trying some of these tips for use in our camper this summer. In the camper we don't have a ton of room and I'm always trying to find ways to stay compact and organised.

Great video! I'm flying to Wyoming this summer and I'm not a big traveler. These tips really help!

[@sonianunez2916]

Thank you Erin for this video. It's definitely going to make my packing nightmares so much easier. 😍❤

I am new to your KZbin videos, but so far I love the one on how to pack for a trip using just a regular carry on & a 2nd smaller one. My mother needs advice on how to pack for 5 weeks traveling to 5 European countries via Eurail that would start in northern Italy and end in Barcelona would be boarding a Viking Ocean cruise starting in Barcelona & ending in Venice. Would be traveling during the Fall months.

Really appreciating your videos as I contemplate packing a 10-day trip to Greece...and wanting to carry-on only. I would love to see the outfits you are packing and how you are packing them for best fit. Since we're doing an island cruise during our trip, I'm stressing over required formal attire that is not really in keeping with the rest of my trip. I say stressed, but I'm planning a trip to paradise, so there's that!

So glad this was helpful for you. Wishing you the BEST time on your upcoming trip!! xo

Great video!!! I agree best info yet!! The only tip I could add is we carry a copy of Documents, passports, Drivers licenses, Health Insurance card with us as well as a laminate copy of Medical Information: including medication, supplements and any known allergies. It is good information if you need medical care as some meds will not interact well. Love the tips!!!

[@BusbeeStyle]

That is a wonderful idea and tip! xo

[@BusbeeStyle]

Take a picture of your docs and store on phone too

Thank you for the tips. Please keep in mind that many airline will only let you take the carry on and a personal item(which is your 2nd smaller bag). Which this also means it will be either the fanny pack or the 2nd item, they are both considered personal items so you can only bring either or.

[@BusbeeStyle]

I put belt bag in my 2nd bag. 😘

[@katiemartell2471]

I can bring both carry on and personal item bag.

[@trishac9516]

Erin, do you put a regular handbag also in your carry-on? Also, do the airlines, for international travel, have restrictions as to the size of your second carry on (like a duffle or tote bag)?

[@evelynglick5717]

Great great video. The only thing I do differently is I pack my outfits for the trip.then add two extras in case I change my mind.

[@bresev8958]

Great video. You have a lot of really good packing tips. I have packing cubes and love them!!!
