Whether this is your first trip or youre an avid
traveler, its always helpful (all the more
helpful if it is a trip to another country) to
have a list of the travel essentials you may want
to pack for your vacation. Creating such a list
and referring to it in the run up to your trip
will stand you in good stead whether youre
planning an international trip or a weekend
vacation. Include everything from travel
must-haves to toiletries, and other things in
your list.

Here are some tips to efficiently pack your
suitcase

• First and foremost, make a list of all the items
  that will go into the suitcase.
• Lay all of your items on the floor or the bed to
  get an idea about how tightly you should be
  packing.
• The carry-on limits are particularly tighter for
  international flights, so its advisable that you
  assess the weight and size restrictions for your
  flight.

• Select the appropriate luggage. For example, if
  it is a checked suitcase, its best to carry a
  backpack and large suitcase. If you have to walk
  long distances, make sure to take luggage with
  spinner wheels.
• If the suitcase is an old one, make sure to clean
  it up before packing things in.

Now its time for the things to pack

• Pack crucial pieces of documents like passport,
  international drivers license France,
  electronics (laptop, smartphone, charger),
  clothes for one or two days (in case checked gets
  lost), toiletries, and medicine.
• Pack an extra pair of shoes, all of your other
  clothing, liquids over 3.4 oz, and other stuff
  not allowed on the flight in your checked
  suitcase.
• Pack all your documents in an easily accessible
  place (like your carry-on, backpack, etc.).

• Use packing cubes to pack electronics, one for
  chargers and smaller items, one for socks and
  underwear. They are a great way to keep your
  items in a proper fashion. Pack the packing cubes
  full, which can save a little bit of space.
• Start packing with shoes and bigger items in case
  you are packing without cubes.

7

• Roll and fold your clothes before you start
  packing.
• If using a carry-on and suitcase, never pack
  essential items in your checked suitcase which
  could be stolen or get lost.
• Be careful when packing liquids and fragile
  items.
• Follow the TSA rules if you are bringing any
  sharp object.

8

• Leave some space for the return items.
• Use the straps to tighten the contents.
• Weigh your bag to ensure its close to the weight
  limit. Its best to get rid of some of the
  clothes if youre above the weight limit.

As youre done with your packing, it is wise to
purchase insurance for your checked suitcase and
use a luggage cover to avoid your checked
suitcase from getting damaged. Dont forget to
add luggage tags to your suitcase and use only
TSA-approved locks.

Remember packing is pivotal. It is best to plan
way in advance when it comes to booking flights
and packing for overseas travel. A comprehensive
international travel checklist should cover all
the health, safety, and financial necessities so
that you are not left in the lurch.
