How to Avoid Check in Baggage

Avoid all the extra luggage fees on your next trip. With all the extra fees airlines are adding EACH Way for checked in luggage, it will be great if you can prevent the overhead with some of these smart ideas.

Things You'll Need

• Air travel plan

Instructions

1. First of all pack your carry on bag and personal item efficiently. Rolling up clothes and placing them at the bottom, makes room for more efficient packing.

2. Carry travel size containers of your vanity items. Visit the $ section in your local department store and optimize your load.

3. In case you still have more items to carry, evaluate this - will it be cheaper to go to the destination and buy them? One trip to the department store might be all it takes.

4. Now, if you have more bags to carry, fully evaluate what it will cost to have the baggage shipped to your destination. This is not free, but it has its advantages - you can skip the cab back and forth to the airport both ways, and take public transit. And the bags will be waiting for you in your accomodation when you get there - SWEET.

5. There are several resources to have your baggage shipped. Check out the resources section below for further information.
