When it comes to traveling, it’s important to have a well packed carry-on bag full of in-flight essentials. This way you can avoid any mishaps and any over packing from happening! Inspired by the adventurer, I have compiled a list of in-flight essentials that will help make your next flight more pleasant.
Two of the key things to keep in mind when putting a carry-on bag together is versatility and to pack light. With that in mind, the first thing you want to do is pick a bag that will accommodate all of your in-flight essentials. One big tip I have come to learn is that backpacks are great for this. They can be very roomy, easy to carry and don’t strain your shoulder the same way a tote bag or purse would.
Once you have your bag of choice picked out we can move on to the fun part and start packing! Through my past travel experiences, I have realized that organizing and categorizing my items into different pouches is a real time saver. This will eliminate you having to rummage through your bag because every item will have its own distinct home.
