These Travel Hacks will hopefully give you all of the tips that you need to have a great trip!  It doesn’t take much to become anxious over a trip because you have forgotten something or something doesn’t go like you want it to go.   If your clothes get all wrinkled on the trip and you arrive without anything to make them look nice again… or if you lose your luggage and have no proof of what was in the suitcase.  These things happen!

That’s why I love to use these travel and packing hacks because it allows me to have a better trip and arrive with my clothes ready to go!  I hope that they do the same for you!  Here goes…

Five Travel Hacks You’ll Love

Five travel hacks you'll love (especially #2) - and a giveaway!

1. Roll; Don’t Fold

As you pack, roll your clothes instead of folding them. You’ll be able to fit up to two times the amount of clothing by rolling them as you would by folding them.
I found this video that is helpful! 

2. Pack your “Iron”

And by iron, we mean Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus. The 3 oz travel size meets airline standards. Slip it into your carry-on bag, and with a simple spray, you’ll be wrinkle free all trip long. (It’s also a great fabric refresher if you have to wear your clothes more than once on vacation.) Click here to read more and grab a coupon.

3. Bring an Empty Water Bottle

After you get through security, several airports have filtered water stands to fill your bottle. You’ll also find that most airport cafes will gladly fill your water bottle as well.

4. Snap a Picture

If you’re checking your luggage, snap a picture of your suitcase contents before you leave the house. If the airline loses your luggage, you’ll be able to use the picture to prove the value of the contents.

5. BYO Blanket

Blankets on airlines are hard to come by these days – and they’re not always washed between flights. If you tend to get cold on planes, or you’re going to be flying overnight, pack your own blanket to stay comfortable.

  1. Great tips! My advice is to put your jewellery in your socks and your socks in your shoes. This way you are going to save some space. I love your idea for my own blanket. I am going to Paris next month so I will remember your tips. Thank you for sharing them. Best regards!
