Here’s a little tip. I was traveling out of the country and I decided to begin packing like 2 weeks before the date. I decided to make my den the place where I would pack all my things at . My den is next to the kitchen. Little did I know that everything that was already packed up was just sitting there soaking up the smells of whatever I was cooking that day. Going back and forth to my suit case, I didn’t smell anything because you become immune. Well, as soon as I got onto the plane (tight space), I opened my travel purse and bammm! The food smells hit me. When I got to my destination and opened my suitcase, it was the same smell. I was smelling like a whole pot roast my whole trip. No amount of perfume could cover that. Anyway, don’t pack your bags around the kitchen or strong traveling smells. 😂😂😂
HAHAAA funny story!!
Not a whole pot roast 🤣🤣🤣
Hollered!! I hate smelling like a big piece of chicken
This is hilarious but relatable. I always have a staging area too but mine is in our bedroom. I do put a dryer sheet in my suitcases...just because. I mean who doesn't love the smell of a good pot roast!! hahahah
thats one funny story... the little things that we dont think about
Don’t forget to take a picture of your checked bag. They always ask for a description when you report it lost 😊 loved your content.
I always do that!
picture the contents too if there are expensive things inside -for insurance- Take several angles of the bag. Many folks add tape stripes or decals etc to make their bag unique
@@MoonbeameSmith I also put an index card in the inside of the luggage on the top with my name, phone number and email address.
@@cynthiakerford4458 I go a bit further than that. I place a 8x10 picture of my face both on top and glued to the inside lid (if I have one) I caught a guy trying to walk off with my bag once and when I called him on it (he already tore off the tags) he created a ruckus. Security was about to let him go and detain me when I said I could irrefutably prove it's mine It took a sergeant to realize that I had a point and when they opened my bag and saw my smiling face there, the full on arrested him on the spot. (his protestations were the reason the went full on with him) But I didn't lose my stuff. It has worked for me twice in 30 years but I'm OK with that
Thank you for sharing.
Aww! We just noticed the tech pouch you have from us. It's an honor to be shown in one of your video!😍
Travelling in 10 days after 3 years. Can’t wait to try these tips/hacks out 😆
I also use luggage packing cubes to keep everything in my suitcases organized and compartmentalized!
This is my first video of yours that I've watched. From the editing, to your sweet personality, then you mention RAINS (I own 2 of their backpacks after seeing a girl in the airport with one) and Im officially sold on your channel
I consider myself a pretty seasoned traveler (we fly non-rev on my husband's airline quite a bit), but you gave me some new tips, gadgets and apps to try out that I hadn't considered previously. THANK YOU!! Oh, and Hero Clips . . . Life changing!!! Awesome, super comprehensive video! 👍 (BTW, I'm team roller bag all the way! SPIN!!!!)
TripIt is my JAM! Been using it for years. I even go back to recall where I’ve been and stayed
OK go with me on this one. Luggage tags: I print up tags using the business card template on my word processor. Most leather or rubber tag holders use that size. I put my name and Destination (Hotel?) address on the face of it along with my phone number (in fairly small type, no everyone needs to know that number) At each stop along the way I switch out the tag for the next destination. I use paper not card and I can put all the tags in the holder at the same time, with the Next destination one faced Out. I put a nice number in a circle (like a logo) in the centre so I can see at a glance if I have switched yet. Colour printing makes it cool too.
I also put a 8x10 picture of my face Inside the luggage. This has saved me twice now from folks who rip off the tags and claim yours as theirs. While it's true that some luggage does look alike, 99.9999% of all luggage does NOT have my face inside. I also brig along a dozen or more bite sized (like Halloween) chocolate bars to give as tips to folks where money doesn't make sence. or as trades to fellow tour mates Our Canadian tastes different to many folks and shows me as thoughtful too.
This strategy works with not only airlines but hotels and taxies too.
I'm a unique case. I use a wheelchair. My hands are busy pushing me. So, rolling luggage doesn't make sense. I use a duffle on my lap when I travel alone. When I'm traveling with someone else, I use my rolling bag and just let them pull it. lol
I can’t do rolling. I like the ability to go anywhere and not be stuck with heavy wheels if I’m walking across dirt or grass or up an incline or stairs.
Thanks for a comprehensive content. It’s given me ideas for my forthcoming trip to the US. I’m from the Philippines by the way.
I went to Europe about a month ago, and I knew I was going to do a lot of walking while also having the possibility of carrying around items bought from a store. I decided to buy a lite day backpack that you can fold up into a pouch the size of a small purse. I was able to stuff it in my carryon, but when I was out and about on excursions I could carry around some more cumbersome things with easy by opening it up to its full size. Plus it became my 2nd carryon item that I could stuff under the seat.
Just loving this so much! Wish I had found you sooner. But now I know how to find you and I’m so glad thank you for such good ideas!
I LOVE this whole video!
Shown such great tips and awesome recommendations! Exactly the content Im looking for 😭
Okabashi breeze sandals (USA-made) can double as shower shoes, and when they wear out, you send them to the company to recycle.
Thank you for your video.
I don't care for thick towels and washcloths so I pack a camp towel and thin Walmart washcloths.
I buy the cheapest luggage possible and it still lasts for many, many years. I like to think that thieves look at my cheap luggage, assume I have no money and nothing worth stealing and they move on to that $700 Away carry-on bag.
I get cold easily and always take a blanket or two. I like the Travelrest 4 in 1 Travel blanket because it has a slit for your head so you can wear it like a poncho and aren't fussing to keep pulling it up. I even take it to the movie theater.
I drink a lot of water. For concerts and other events, I take a collapsible water bottle made by Nomader. It is easy to roll it up, get past security and then fill it up inside the venue.
For flights, I have 1 and 2 liter bottles made by HydroPak and Platypus that are very durable. You need to have a cup to pour the water into for drinking. REI carries a variety of collapsible cups.
Another option is a hydration bladder, used by runners and hikers. The bladders have a long tube attached that you drink from. Hydration backpacks with an included hydration bladder are on sale at Big 5 Sporting Goods frequently for $30-40. The backpacks appear slim but actually have a number of pockets and can be filled with a lot of stuff.
I like to travel with a travel jacket. It has 20+ pockets and you can carry a tablet in front and a laptop in the small of your back, plus a lot of other items. Airlines are getting fussy with regards to the size and type of on-board luggage. European airlines will even weigh your carry-on. But...they can't force you to remove your clothing yet. The company I bought my jackets and vests from (I have several) seems to be out of business, unfortunately. They made knockoffs of the Bau Bax jackets at a much better price and much better quality. Look at Scott eVest, Magellan's and TravelSmith for ideas.
Lastly, I always have to have my TRTL travel pillow. It looks odd but is so very comfortable. I fall asleep quickly and stay asleep. I use mine daily as I commute to work in a vanpool. The drive is over an hour and most of us sleep.
Twinsss! I’m glad I’m not the only one! I had friends tell me I’m too extra, but then when they need wipes, sanitizer spray, or can’t find their luggage because they didn’t have an airtag they’re looking at me lol. Great video! ❤
Packing cubes for your clothes, international plugs, good rolling luggage with unique colors...
For carry on packing, I'm team duffle. It almost always fits under the seat if needed. Or I can smash it into tighter spaces in the overhead. But I only pack carry on for shorter trips. Over seas, I usually check my bag. If I do bring a rolling bag as a carry on, I'm not doing the four wheels. But that's me. They stick out too far and are too prone to breaking (especially if you have to gate check and the baggage handlers get ahold of it...).
I always bring plastic grocery bags or small trash bags. I have some that just live in my suitcase until needed. Perfect for dirty laundry or wet clothes or packing shoes in, or just whatever. I've never regretted bringing them with me, I'll just say that.
Before buying my good luggage, I kept an eye on what pilots and flight attendants were using. Bought some of that. Oh man. There's a reason they use what they use. Tough as sh*t. And if something does break, 90% chance you can go back on the website and order a cheap part to fix it yourself. Most of their rolling bags have these roller blade wheels on them which just feel so so nice. They are so smooth and quiet. Extra nice when you're the tourist tryin to get to the airport at 5am, dragging your bag across cobblestone streets. Game changer. Can't go back to hard plastic wheels. I think I spent a solid 5 minutes just pulling my bag around the house when it got delivered. Lmao! Every time I pull it out to pack for another trip, I gotta make a lap around the house with it. Oh & most of the bags are made so that they fit down the aisle of just about any plane. No need to turn it sideways. Like my larger bag (medium sized, so bigger than carry on but not the max size for checked luggage) is kind of an tall rectangular shape so that if you're an airline employee who gets to bring that in the cabin, it will roll easily down the aisle.
Great info. Thanks! Taking your own towel and washcloth is just smart, not germaphobe. I always do that and thought it was normal.
9:59 Oh, you're a germaphobe, too! Thank you for including it! It's so hard to find UA-camrs who talk about it. I'd love to see a what's in your bag tour or something.
19:24 also love the luggage rack idea!
For me, since you asked about duffle bags, the only time I would use a duffle over a rolling luggage is on road trips. You can just put in the trunk of your car and pick it up to your hotel where it might be obstacles that prevent you from rolling your luggage, like stairs, bumps, cobblestone, etc. Never for a flight.
Yesss my fellow travel sis! 🙌🏾😆 these are some great tips and I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you for blessing us with these gems!!
Thank u as well for the support!!
TEAM DUFFEL. I know I'm in a minority I think, but if you're not checking it and are able bodied enough to carry it - duffel! Can fit so much more. People with rolling bags always almost trip me, and take up a lot more space in the overhead bin, so more likely to be made to check it. Plus I feel like they take forever to get down from overhead after landing.
Her voice is so smooth and the video editing is so on pitch it makes the video so much interesting what a video 😂
Awesome video!! Learned lots of tips I haven’t seen before and got a sub :D
Jazmine Sullivan Heaux Tales, 👀I’m listening to alll your recommendations… you’re to be trusted 🙌🏾🙌🏾😂😂
No shame about being clean-. I break out the ziploc bag with Clorox wipes to clean the armrest, the top of the seat in front of me, the top of my seat ( these are two common high-touch areas,) and the tray, the whole thing and yes, the bathroom. Another ziplock in my bag has more for the hotel room.
I really enjoyed this video. I love to travel and I enjoy convenience. Just recently bought some Anker chargers and power banks. I almost always use Clorox wipes to disinfect the seats and food tray. There were times that I used to bring my own towels. But now i use the hotels towels because I change wash cloths after each shower. Now I will invest in some shower shoes even though my bougie ass do wipe down the bathtub and everything in the hotel room 🤦🏽♂️
Want to start travelling soon and your tips helped! Thanks
a few tips for travelling alone:
- always pack what you need and not extra. you will probably not even use everything xD
- always let someone know where you left and where you are staying
- always make sure to get your paperwork ahead of time, especially if taking pills with you or shots (insulin, etc)
Had more in mind but my two neurons are fighting to stay awake after a long night shift, lol xD
Such an amazing video!!. I Loved all the links ☺️ (they were all clearly labeled and in the order you mentioned them!! which i always appreciate. I will definitely have to refer back to some products mentioned for my future travels ❤
Get you on Team Rolling Duffel!!
These are some solid tips!
Why thank u! 😄
This video was so so helpful!! I also loved the way you edited this!!
Have you ever taken a cover the plane seat or for the drop down table? I’m seriously thinking of getting one of each.
Thank u for all the great suggestion and advice.
Your voice is so soothing and calm.
Hands Down Best Video for travel! Bravo!!
If you are traveling with children, always get them to pack a carry-on bag full of toys. It's a life saver.
Great tips. I’ve flown over 700 flights until Covid. Job stopped.
Nitecore makes the lightest 10000 power bank. And REI 22 backpack is very good.
I bring my own pillow, I love your use of bags. I am going to step up my game
For flying I'm team rolling. We do road trips more often so I do have a duffel bag for that since i"m not carrying the bag far. For road trips we usually are staying somewhere for less time so I don't need as much stuff either so I can usually put everything in the duffel bag. I don't use locks since TSA always breaks them. They leave a little note that they searched my bag but every time I had a lock on the zipper they broke it and searched. I don't ever have anything valuable in my luggage so I'm not worried about actually losing anything but it's not as easy to lock your luggage as pre 9/11 when they just didn't check suitcases like they do now.
Team Backpack here.
Decades of reliance on backpacks.
Great tips! Team Rollie all the way.
Wouldn't consider myself a germaphobe but I still LOVE wipes for travel. Hand sanitizer will do if that's the only option but having wipes is so much better. You can actually wipe away dirt and whatever when you don't have easy access to a sink. Also you can wipe down various surfaces if needed.
And I still just lay down strips of toilet paper on the toilet seat, lol! Just be extra careful not to get one of the strips hanging out of your pants like a full grown toilet monster.
Thanks so much for this! I’m flying to Paris from New Zealand in July 😅 should be good. Also, I see that Miseducation of Lauryn Hill😏 my fav album of all time 🔥
Thank you!
I like your personality!
Don't forget to pack the travel sheet/liners. I purchased off of Amazon, a game changer!
I really enjoyed your vid. I would like to add people may want to pack a few simple snacks as well. I typically just grab a few from the Amex lounge.
Very informative thank you! I def need to order a luggage rack for my home
Entire video is vaulable, but it was the seat covers for me 👏🏾❤
Thank you!❤
Thank you! Thoughts on best travel backpacks? Team rollie
You ate my new fav person to watch. ❤
Thank you! I do not travel alot and this is the information that i needed. I clicked on 3 other videos before this that just pushed unnecessary amazon things.. I just want to know if neck pillows are a good purchase. lol
Love your video! I'm a germafobe! Love that I'm not alone! 😁
TripIt is boss period
1st time watching..... great post....
Would love to see more travel prep/travel needs videos! This video came up in my recommended and I subscribed halfway through! Don’t really follow tech stuff but love that you don’t have that annoying squeaky voice that recently had become popular on UA-cam 😂😂😂 Also a fellow germaphobe and def buying those toilet seat covers!!!
She is just so cool!
Thank you girl! Dope 🙌🏿
Love the video very informative. Thank you.
great info! Thank you!!
We prefer Away because of the warranty and it is made in the USA.
Hey, I ain't flown in a minute. However, I thought they wouldn't allow the baby lysol can? Since it's an Aerosol?
Thanks
Thank you for the vid!! I'll be traveling soon and some of these I haven't thought about. Also, are the Sony XM5'S worth it? 😊
Yes to all of this💯
Where’s the body sling from?
You have use gloves with the purple PDI wipes.
I use Flighty or App in the Air for flight status and tracking history
What's the name of the gray tech bag?
Make sure you connect earbuds to your phone before your plane leaves the gate. Once the WiFi is off, you can't connect.
Very good tips thanks
Great video, I am still searching for a travel towel but I will look into your suggestion 😊 I am also a germ freak so no shame in that 😅 trip it app- definite something I will get.
I love your very informative videos
Thank Yooooou ‼️‼️‼️
Great tips
Hi, do you have any travel tips for traveling to and from Canada? I am planning a trip and I don't want to check any bags. Are there any prechecks for TSA or whatever so I can get through to immigration sooner?
Thank you.
I have most of these things. 😅
Team rolling suitcase 🧳, and I also travel with my own washcloths. 😄
Get global entry it comes with tsa precheck for free 👌🏽
Excellent video even US seasoned travelers can learn thank you!!👍🏿👍🏿🫶🏿
I always pack a fanny pack and wear it under my coat or sweater onto the plane. They never count it as another personal item, and I put in it all the things I will need for the flight. Once on board, I take it off, lengthen the straps fully, and hang it over the tray in front of me (the tray can still close for take-off). Then I can use it as a sling to elevate my feet. Perfect for long-haul flights.
good tip, Billie-Jo :)
Thank you for sharing.
Southwest sure counted my AER day sling 3 max as a another personal item. Of course it was shown because I didn’t have on a sweater or coat because of the hot weather. I also had an AER backpack and my carry-on spinner. But i ended up gate checking it. And I also saw them make another dude consolidate his fanny pack before he even went into the jet bridge.
Delta just started counting Fanny packs. I used to do that too!
what does fanny pack means? like a childrens backpack?
AirTags are the best. We went to Egypt and on the way back home, we had a long layover in Canada. My suitcase was mistakenly put on the carousel, but my husband’s was supposedly transferred. Needless to say, his bag was still in Canada while we were home. So we had to wait for it arrive, then wait until the luggage claim was open to retrieve it. The AirTag allowed us to tell the clerk at the airport that his luggage was there and we weren’t leaving without it. We got our luggage and left. 😊
Don’t do TSA pre-check, do Global Entry instead and you get TSA pre-check with it. It’s marginally more (you pay $100) but is a huge time saver when coming back into the US from abroad.
Thanks!
Some credit cards - credit you back the cost of GOES - Amex & Chase sapphire
THis is the pro tip, clear isn't everywhere and is quite pricey for what it does.
THIS! Learned the hard way!
The wait for Global entry is really long if you need to go somewhere soon
I can't say how much I enjoyed this presentation. Suffice it to say that I stopped it at every point and add a point to my to-do list for the Paris trip in 2 days. Awesome, and a totally engaging personality. I have been traveling for years, but I learned a lot here. clearly, this is the BEST travel tip video. I get anxious even before a 150-mile auto trip--yet I LOVE traveling. You really made a difference for me in this video.
Thank you for kind words!
I use compressed wash cloths. They’re about the size of an Alka-Seltzer tablet, maybe a little smaller and they expand when you put them in water or run water over them. 👍🏾
YES!!! and cheap like borsht too! You can rehydrate them using bottled water, so contamination from alien/untrusted water is reduced. And they make great gifts to fellow travellers in certain circumstances. I also use a water bottle bidet.
Apply for Global Entry. It's the TSA precheck for both international and domestic travel (at all US airports). Clear is not available at some airports. Global Entry is $100 and good for five years.
Global Entry comes with TSA Precheck
Best investment I ever made... Wooosaaah
Only thing is my appointment isn't until October 😩😩
And if you have Chase preferred card, Global entry fee will be reimbursed
@@makeupbyashley828If u travel international before October just go straight to the interview when you return, bring the approval letter with you.
7:54Thanks bud for keepin us financially Educated! Regardless of how bad it gets on the economy, I still make over $22,000 every single week.

@grace oluwatoyin Love y'all 😍and the information given always learning and growing is the only way we can hone our skills and build
I LOVE this video. As someone who travels A LOT, I clicked this video extremely fast. If you don’t want to be loyal to any particular airlines, I’d recommend Gold Alliance or something similar to build status with different airlines and transfer points between airlines. I can vouch for the Amazon cheap tech case, toilet seat covers, sani wipes, quick dry towel, air tag, and Monos luggage!!! I use all these items for every trip. You didn’t mention the hero clip but I also use one for travel and it’s been a game changer and has SOOO many uses. Also, yes on the stop by Hudson News! 😂 P.S. as a fellow germaphobe I’d recommend getting soap sheets. They look kind of like the listinerine sheets but it’s soap and dissolves with water. Super compact but totally useful.
Yasss! Put me on! I didn’t know about Gold Alliance or the soap sheets! Noted! 💯
Is it the star alliance gold status? When I looked it up that’s the first one that popped up.
@@alisaucedo3674 Yes. My bad. Typo on my part. That’s the one.
@@TheTravelingMujer thank you!
New subscriber here! Just came upon your wonderful video while scrolling.
Regarding the soap sheets, they're great. I always have them in my handbags as there's no guarantee of finding soap in public restrooms.
I’m a germaphobe also. I stock up on $1.00 flip flops (Dollar store, or end of summer at Target $1.00 and wear in any hotel or ABNB shower. I toss them out the last night of trip after my last shower. Also double as slippers.
Same! Glad I’m not the only one! Lol
Why so many flip flops only to toss them in a landfill , it seems environmentally cruel and careless.
That is actually smart, they make travel scrubbing bubbles wipes and I plan on wiping down the bathroom with thoae as well.
TIP: Clear is not with every airport, but TSA Pre Check is. Also, Global Entry is great if you travel abroad it's 5 years as well and it takes over TSA Precheck, so you will have 5 years of Global Entry that will start immediately, and if you let it expire you will still have whatever years you had for TSA Precheck left over before Global Entry started.
Yes, I mentioned the same but less eloquently. Lol.
I recommend Global Entry instead of just going for TSA Pre.
Great tips! Disclaimer: My grandpa's house smelled like a hospital as he used ammonia and Lysol several times a day, so today as a germaphobe I use Lysol and ninety-nine percent alcohol in a spray bottle right as hand sanitizer typically only has about 65% alcohol. Also, don't forget to turn your work alarms off. There's nothing worse than waking up early on vacation when you could have slept in but can't get back to sleep because of the alarm.
Google 70% vs 90% alcohol cleaning power. Hard to believe, 70% is better.
Yes to the travel towel, shower shoes, and wash clothes! The travel towel was a game changer for me! Light, quick drying, and compact
Sis, I lowkey shed a tear...thank you!
Tip: upgrade to 1st class for even one segment of your flight to get upgraded checked bags instead of paying for overweight/extra bags.
Definitely subscribing!
Good tip here as well with the upgrade! Thank u for subscribing! 💯
🔺 airline employee here! Another tip, don’t check in 2-wheel bags… we hate it. We’re unable to roll it to our guys who’s in the bin that’s about 10-15 feet away so we’re gonna have to toss it as hard as we can to get those bags to the other guy. Then ends up getting the most damaged.
Good to know but some of us are taking our bags on buses, trains, and wheeling on cobblestone streets. The 2 wheeled luggage are easier and more durable imo for these types of trips for me. Also 4 wheels can get pretty beat up. I can replace my 2 wheeled luggage but rarely 4 wheels. If getting in and out of cabs or Ubers 4 wheel is ok but can’t the beating like 2 wheels.
@@mariebrown9415 honestly 4 wheel bags ain’t that bad. It’s usually cause people don’t want to invest in a good brand that’s more durable. You can still roll the 4 wheelers as two and I suggest Rimowa luggage’s or Nomatic luggage’s.
@@EAF_Visuals I’ll look at Nomatic. I have a small 4 wheel Rimowa carry on which I like and a Briggs & Riley 2 wheeled compression carry on ( bought extra set of wheels kit which are easy to change- haven’t had to yet) and a Tumi 4 wheel . I’m an over packer and use European trains and buses a lot and some trains you have to step up into them and get off quickly . Elevators broken , and often lots of steps at smaller metro and train stations - that’s my problem. My back can’t take heavy back packs so I wheel a lot. Solo traveler. Thanks for the suggestions. Will look at Nomatic .
The sanitization portion really resonated with me. I screamed “Tribe!” when you mentioned all the things I do and bring on my trips as well.
Yesss! U are welcome here lol
@@Techmeout Subscribed. Happy to be apart.
I use alcohol prep pads more than the wipes. I travel for extended time (3 mo at a shot) and I find wipes dry out before used up. Prep pads however are individually wrapped and contain Just alcohol and more of it per pad. You have to use it fairly fast once open as they evaporate quickly. but the last for ages when lefty unopened. They are considered medical too for TSA purposes. and you can put 100 in your bags as they are thinner than condoms but about the same size square. Minimal residual aroma too. even works when taking a pit bath should That need arise
