Luxury travels are all about showcasing self confidence and self reliance, all the while having a great time. Whether you are taking your first few business class flights, traveling on a luxury cruise or staying at a five star hotel, you should always be prepared with your basics and be well sorted with your luggage and other necessities.
And efficient, time-saving and space saving packing is one of the most important things you can do to be prepared for those big, luxury trips and flights. In addition to making your stay easier and more comfortable, effective packing is one skill which would boost your confidence and bring you in that self reliant head space which we all need whenever we step out of our comfort zone.
If you are like most people, loving traveling while hating packing your stuff, you would really appreciate these packing tips:
Research on your airlines baggage policy :
Before you begin packing, it is always a good idea to look up what you can and can’t bring on the flight. Keeping your travel itinerary in mind, check the baggage restrictions for the entire trip. Also researching the baggage fee prior to checking in at the airport can save you from a lot of hassle, stress and embarrassment in case your baggage is above the weight limit prescribed by your airline.
Plan your wardrobe:
Use a sorting method when you pack your clothes for the trip, and pack together pieces of clothing that go well together, to quickly grab a ready to wear outfit on your trip. Packing in a lot of options would only add to the confusion and weight in your baggage. Keep a few extra pieces of clothing that go well with most outfits to spruce up your looks if you have a wardrobe malfunction or are required to prolong your stay.
In addition to planning complete outfits for your trip, also pack them in an efficient manner. The Marie Kundo method of rolling clothes instead of packing makes them easier to take out, and also saves a lot of space in your suitcase.
Carry a suitable personal bag:
A comfortable handbag is a great companion on luxury trips. In addition to adding class and style to your outfits, the bag can carry all essential hygiene and beauty products, your cash and cards, and other handy items required on any trip.
