Travel Tips for Your Next Trip

Going on a vacation is always a thrilling feeling. You’re excited, impatient, and ready to clock out for the week. The prep that goes into getting ready for a vacation is, unfortunately, not always the same feeling. Don’t fret! Our experts at Organized Living have put together a few quick tips for your next trip.

Packing List

The best first step to packing for any trip is to look at the weather and how many days you’ll be at your destination. It gives a good starting point of what items need to come with you. Use a freedomRail® Valet Rod to hold your outfits, allowing you to double-check that you have everything you need before placing items into your suitcase.

Airline Policies

Airlines usually have a standard that they all go by, but it never hurts to check what their baggage-fee policy is. Depending on where your destination is located, can be the difference between a free checked bag or having to spend big bucks for big bags!

Roll

When it comes to saving space in luggage, it’s best to roll your clothes, not fold them. Folding items tend to make the clothing more bulky and prone to wrinkles. Watch our tutorial on how we suggest rolling shirts for travel.

Layer

Hot, cold, rain, or shine. Layering will be your best friend. We recommend planning your outfits with layers in mind. Bonus if you wear your bulkiest layers onto the plane to save more space in your luggage. 

Personal Items

It can be risky to add valuable and important items to checked bags. All airlines encourage you to keep your wallet, IDs, electronic devices, and other valuables with you in your personal item bag. It saves time when going through security and lets you travel with ease of mind knowing your items are safe.

Enjoy!

We hope these tips help you enjoy a stress-free packing experience and a relaxing vacation! Staying organized over the span of your journey makes it easier to pack when it is finally time for you to head home. For more travel tips and ideas, check out our Pinterest Board here!
