I truly agree on checked luggage. I pack all the things I need that will make my trip enjoyable. Plus, I don't have to worry about carry-on luggage. I have my backpack as I carry all the important and valuable things that I won't put in a checked luggage.
I want to become a regular flyer...BUT right now I'm not used to flying and have decided its best I do a checked suitcase sent to my final destination, so I get a printed boarding pass. I figure it will be easier, hopefully. I refuse the use of cellphones to get an electronic one, I just use laptops. Less is more. If my choice screws me up then so be it.
@@JessieB_ Well done Jessie with your dreams and goals of more travel. Be safe, and I hope this and other tips help you enjoy your planning and holidays too!! :-)
Who needs tweezers when you have the power of positive thinking, right? Haha love you humour In some ways I wish I could pack less, but this leopard is not going to change his spots and embrace packing more and being relaxed as we enjoy the world with our travels :-) :-)
We try to avoid checked luggage. Why? Well, mis handling by airline staff, theft occuring at the claim area, mis routed and lost, theft of contents by so-called inspectors. Many regular airport workers have the uncontrolled TSA bypass key. Delays at baggage claim area can be 15 to 30 minutes.
thanks for your comments. All valid points. I do travel with cabin only for shorter durations. I made this post to provide some extra balance to the general UA-cam imbalance. Relax on both styles due to the advantages of both approaches, stay safe and enjoy the travels. :-)

yep 100% agree. It gives me more time to enjoy and relax. E.g. a spare pair of shoes, another universal power board adapter etc. ;-)

Fantastic tips!
Glad you like them!
Many adventures to come
Thanks David I hope so :-)
I was thinking bout this today. Why is everyone so obsessed with cramming the bare minimum into a tiny backpack?!
You can't even bring tweezers...

Theres always plastic tweezers..lol
@@JessieB_ The funny thing is, a good pair of tweezers costs about the same as an entry-level first aid kit 🙂
