Instructions

  1. Pack Like a Minimalist

    • 1

      Pack lightly. Most travel destinations have stores with any items you may discover you need during your trip. Do not bring excessive amounts of clothing or shoes. Eliminate the stress of heavy luggage and over packed bags.

    • 2

      Purchase a travel kit to keep your toiletries and keep it stocked at all times. When you are at the store buy the items you know you need for the trip. This eliminates last minute rushing around before the trip.

    • 3

      Keep your airplane tickets in the same place at all times. This prevents misplacing the tickets. You always know where they are because they are always in that same place.

    • 4

      Always keep extra traveler's checks handy. This helps you be prepared if you are asked to leave suddenly for a trip.

    • 5

      Keep a contact list updated so when you are away you know who to contact in an emergency. Also list the medications you may take, your doctor's name and phone number, and the phone number of your place of employment.

Tips & Warnings

  • Keep your luggage handy and organized for a trip at all times.

  • Keep your airline tickets in the same place all the time so they are not lost.

  • Check airline departures online before you leave for the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport well before the flight is scheduled to leave to allow time for check in.
