    Putting socks in shoes... that's a great tip. I'm about to leave for a trip and I'm having a hard time packing.

    Edwards Luggaage recommended packing envelops for our last 30 days trip to Africa. They were great! Our shirts, blouses, and pants were wrinkle free. They saved space and in a buffel type bag, they kept our clothers from unfolding. Check into the three sizes.

    can you pack soda in your suitcase when flying?

    When flying, prep your toiletries. Loosen the cap of each container, squeeze a little air out, then re-tighten container. This allows the contents to expand in-flight (due to lower atmospheric pressure) without springing a leak.

    Always pack a spare pair of underwear in your hand luggage in case your suitcase does not arrive at baggage claims!

    If you like bringing home a lot of souvenirs and gifts; Neatly pack your belongings in a medium-sized suitcase. Then place this packed suitcase into a larger sized suitcase (later re-pack your clothes into the larger suitcase). This gives you a completely empty piece of luggage, for lots of keepsakes for the return flight home! There will also be more room in the larger bag, for even more gifts!

    I found that the little ties that come with garbage bags great when it comes to traveling. I use the to hold the zippers closed, because mini locks are no longer allowed. It keeps your things from falling out and it also allows for easy access incase your luggage gets searched!

    Pack everything just one day before you leave for your destination, then as soon as you arrive immediately unpack everything and put it away in the wardrobe/drawers, etc. This should prevent most clothes from becoming wrinkled.

    If you're flying, pack a pair of knickers and a toothbrush into your hand luggage in case your suitcase goes AWOL. And don't forget to moisturize well and drink lots of water in the air! It's always an idea to bring a big bottle of water on board with you.
