Who called it traveling and not a packing crisis?

Minimalistic packing is the biggest challenge that you might face as a frequent traveler. Transcending through the roads of different countries with your back huddled with luggage is not the traveling that you dream of, right? From the task of keeping track of all your luggage to paying big bucks at the airport for the extra weight, there are innumerable problems. To eliminate these problems, switch to traveling with a Timus carry-on only.

Carry-on only travel does not mean you will have to cut down your essentials or you cannot carry all the chic dresses that you saved for the Italy trip. It simply means packing consciously and wisely. This blog will be your guide for everything from “how to travel only with carry-on luggage” to “how to manage light-weight carry-on luggage.”

WHAT TO PACK IF YOU ONLY HAVE CARRY-ON BAGS?

Here is a list of carry-on essentials that will ensure the best carry-on travel experience for you-

1. Clothing - Clothes form the major fraction of the packed stuff. But if you want to enjoy your trip with neither extra baggage nor extra stress, then you will have to choose your clothes wisely.

Opt for lightweight and less-space-consuming clothes. Make sure that you don't carry too many clothes. Also, remember that doing laundry while traveling is always better than carrying heavy bags throughout the trip.

2. Toiletries - If possible, try to replace the liquid toiletries with solid ones. They require less space and eliminate the hassle at the same time. Some standard toiletries that you should carry in your carry-on bag include:

  • Shampoos and Conditioner bars
  • Razor
  • Soap and Shower Gel bars
  • Toothbrush and Toothpaste

HOW DO YOU TRAVEL WITH ONLY HAND/CARRY-ON LUGGAGE?

Since it is not easy at first to travel with only hand/carry-on luggage, here are some tips that can help you get friendlier to this way of traveling






DO YOU HAVE TO CHECK IN IF YOU HAVE A CARRY-ON?

  1. Choose your bag wisely: The backpack that you choose for your trip makes a huge difference. Your carry-on bag should be light-weighted, high-quality, and spacious. Ease of carry-on bag travel is another thing that you should consider. Wheel-bags are considered the most convenient ones. Also, your carry-on bag shouldn't be sturdy as they are hard to fit in the overhead compartment. Check bags from Timus as they have a great collection to choose from.
  2. Double-check the weight and dimensions: One big reason why you are opting for only hand/carry-on luggage is to avoid paying extra charges for overweight. Read the hand luggage size rules of your airline carefully. To be double sure, re-check the weight of your bag at the last moment.
  3. Check for forbidden items: Airlines have a separate list of things they do not allow in the cabin or carry-on luggage. Missing these guidelines can get you in serious trouble, so make sure you don't let that happen.
  4. Carry heaviest clothes on yourself: This is the smartest trick that every traveler has accepted by heart. If you want to carry a jacket or a pair of heavy-weighted footwear, wear them on the plane.

Usually, you are not required to check in if you have carry-on luggage only. Airlines allow you to carry a carry-on that you can keep in your overhead compartments






 Although, this condition stands true as long as you follow the standard carry-on luggage size. Do not carry your laptop in checked-in luggage, take it as second cabin luggage if essential.

If your airline has the facility of digital check-in then you can head straight to the security with your traveling luggage and escape this hassle. But again, you have to play smart if you want to save money. You have to act like your 15kg bag is light as air. If the guards see you stooping under the weight, they might charge you heavily.

HOW DO I PACK MY CABIN LUGGAGE ONLY?

Packing is an art that is hard to master overnight. It takes many messed-up trips before you manage to organize one strategic trip with everything you need at your fingertips. Carry-on only is one such way of traveling that once you try it, there is no going back.

I strongly recommend one should carry Timus Carry-on as they are best in quality and services they provide.
