There is an art to packing a carry-on, and it takes more practice than packing hanging garment bags. Packing your luggage properly, especially liquid items, can save you time, money and headaches.
Currently, airline regulations in the United States follow the “3-1-1 liquid rule”. In other words, when you are traveling with your upscale luggage, all of your liquids, such as shampoo, toners, moisturizers, sun block, etc. must be securely packed in clear, resealable plastic bags (such as freezer bags). These bags must be quart sized. Every liquid item can contain only three ounces or less of the item.
You don’t want the executive luggage that you spent good money on to get ruined at the airport nor be soiled in any way. What can you do to avoid having to deal with the liquid rule at the airport?
Most hotels stock items in the bathrooms such as shampoo, conditioner, soap and body lotion. Use these instead of packing your own. This will free up some room in your upscale luggage. Even if you do not like the brands in the hotel room as much as what you normally use, you can still get by using these for the duration of your trip.
Items that are solid or powder can be packed in a carry-on bag with no problem. Buy solid alternatives to some of your favorite products to take with you.
