1. Storing small items in shoes: This can be items that don’t fit in the toiletry bag or even socks. If traveling with children, their shoes can be stored inside yours.
2. Clothes management: Rolling your clothes instead of folding them can save significant space.
3. Wearing bulky items: This suggests wearing larger items like sweaters or jackets on the plane if they take up too much luggage space.
4. Placing heavier items at the bottom of the suitcase can help compress the bag to fit into overhead storage bins.
5. Utilizing undergarments for storage: You can fold your bras in half and tuck your underwear inside the cups for space saving and better shape retention.
6. Using glasses cases for storage: Spare room in your glasses case can store items like earbuds or a charger.
7. Packing shoes near the suitcase’s bottom near the wheels can maintain balance and prevent the bag from falling over.
8. Using a contact lens case to store liquid makeup or moisturizer can save space.
9. BELTS: Rolling belts inside shirt collars can save space and maintain collar stiffness.
10. Use of dryer sheets: These can keep clothes fresh, repel insects, and can substitute as a makeshift bug spray.
11. Avoiding small pouches for toiletries and makeup: they can take up more space than expected. This suggests utilizing the small spaces in the luggage instead.
12. Using cling film/plastic wrap to prevent spills from loose shampoo bottles or powder makeup like foundations and bronzers.
