Ways to Lighten You Load

Tips for better packing:

DO NOT pack the following in your checked luggage:

• Fine Jewelry
• Cash
• Laptop computers
• Electronics
• Fragile items (no matter how they are protected)

Think about the following when packing:

• Only pack what's necessary
• Leave unnecessary electronics at home
• Don't pack every pair of shoes you own
• See if your accommodations have a laundry facility for your use
• If you don't use it at home, you more than likely wont use it on your trip; so leave it at hope.
• Don't bring every beauty product you own on vacation.
• Weigh your bags.
• Put your name and address in your luggage and on the outside.
• Make sure your luggage is easy to identify.
• Check with your travel agent or airline to see what luggage restrictions are in place.
• Put anything that could possibly leak in plastic bags.
• Avoid over packing your bags.
• Put personal items in clear plastic bags, this may prevent the TSA screener from having to handle them.
• Try and pack travel size products, you don't really need your jumbo bottle of shampoo.
• If you're going on an international trip, pack feminine products.
• Pack a snack in your carryon, that way you wont have to pay for a snack in the air.
