Byankno1 moved page Fly with Only a Backpack for Luggage to Fly With a Checked Backpack without leaving a redirect simplified
New page
Veteran flyers understand that hauling suitcases when flying is a burden. To check one in on a round way trip costs upwards of 70-80$, and can cause time and anxiety when dropping them off and picking them up at the airport and the hotel. Flying with a single carry-on eliminates this cost and provides you with the peace of mind that all of your items are on your person

==Tips==
*'''Choose outfits wisely'''. It is important that you think wisely about what outfits you are going to bring on your trip. You want to avoid over packing and under packing clothing.
*'''Buy Certain items upon arrival''' In some cases it is better to pack light and just buy certains items once you get to your destination. For example, if you are traveling for a long period of time and you are having an issue with the liquids restrictions just buy the shampoo at your destination. You don't want to be forced to check your bag because you're one of your products in bigger than 3.4ounces/100mL
*''' Packing cubes are used to maximize and organize the space usage in your bag.''' A packing cube can be thought of as a dresser drawer in your carry on. Each cube holds similar items to make packing and finding stuff while you travel easier.
** The best packing cubes to pick. You want them to be made from stiff fabric, have at least two handles, and a mesh top.
** Organize your cubes by categorizing the items that you need to pack. For example if you are going on a trip where you will experience cold and warm weather, you can use one cube for all your cold weather clothes and another for your warm weather clothes.
