Thank you for the tips. How much weight in kg is your hand carried luggage? Most airlines have a limit of 5 to 7 kg only.

[@iris-tabea]

Most of the time I manage to keep my carry-on trolley below 10 kg, I always check before my trip what the airline states on their website :)
But in all honesty I am sure I'm above the limit by a few kilos on almost all of my trips - they have never bothered though 🤞🏼😊 Since I only fly with carry-on luggage I print my boarding pass at home and then at the airport I go straight to security control and they don't weigh carry-on luggage there. And in my backpack I only carry my laptop and electronics which is usually below the limit anyways.
The only thing I always always always make sure to comply with is the size limit, when they say a trolley can't be bigger than a certain size then it definitely needs to be under that. They have those boxes right at the gate before you enter the plane that they make you put yours in and check if it's small enough. My carry-on trolley is on the smaller side so I never have any issues with that 😊

Thanks again. Will try your advice. Will give you an update on how my travel will unfold.

Recently, I’ve seen more people have their bag weighed at the gates (Lufthansa, Ryanair, EasyJet)

[@iris-tabea]

Oh that is interesting, I haven't seen that yet. thanks for sharing! :)

Are you bringing multiple pairs of shoes? I do think I could live with just one…

If you take True Earth laundry strips, they take up no space. Your outwear is so bulky. I would use thinner layers.

[@iris-tabea]

thanks for the recommendation, I had never heard of laundry strips before! Looks great for that purpose 😊
Totally, thinner layers would save so much space but I just love the fluffy sweaters too much haha ☺️

What size and kind of luggage are you using?

[@iris-tabea]

My carry-on trolley is 50 x 38 x 21cm, I believe the brand is called Totto, bought it at Carrefour 😊 Hope that helps!

What kind of stay at home job do you do?

[@iris-tabea]

I used to work as a software engineer for a completely remote company (which I recently quit) 😊
