I love how you handled the, “these, if you know you know, if not, they’re probably not for you.”❤❤❤
Oct 1, 2024: Just got back from 16 days in France. My only struggle was for my personal item. Icelandair has drastically reduced the amount of space under the seats, especially if you are stuck in the middle seat like I was for 8 hours of flight. The tech for the seat back entertainment system is under the middle seats (where is the fairness and compassion to middle seaters with this?!?!)and it is a box that drastically reduces that available space. You must have a skinny personal item if you are stuck in a middle seat. Or else just accept that it has to go overhead. Major bummer when I got on the plane. Beware if you are a middle-seater!
I love your ideas. Some of my own: I use laundry sheets for less liquids, my Fav is the Love Bag Crossbody. It stores super small, has a zipper and carabinger. works great for shopping, beach bag, and carryon if needed. Super light. i use it everywhere!
Was 3 weeks in Portugal top to bottom, trains and cars within PT. Those cobblestones all over will test those wimpy 4 wheels! So bring the most durable wheels you have. My skateboard 2 wheeler is what I prefered over the 4 wheels which are only fine in the smooth airport floors. Bring the best walking shoes you have. Look for Manteigaria stores for the best pasteis de nata in Porto and Lisbon, you will not stop at 1 and it will be a mandatory stop each morning for breakfast! Film camera, wow so impressed. The flat dry laundery detergent sheets can also work well.
I’m going on a Europe trip this April 2025, and this video is super helpful for packing! ❤
I am traveling to Portugal in September and this video helped tremendously. Thank you.
My little travel pro is tried and true, and has never let me down. I’ve traveled with it on countless trips and I’ve never had any issues. Travel pro for life.
I would also suggest Benedryl. Coming home from Italy a 3 year old had a reaction on our plane and I was able to provide the flight attendant and Dr who was a passenger Benedryl. We took laundry soap sheets. They work well and don't count as a liquid.
I actually like the look of the travel pro bag better. The brix looks like really thin material that would rip open if it caught on something.
Amazon has compression socks with zippers. SO much easier to get on and off.
I went to Guatemala for 31 days and only brought a carryon bag. My friends and I stayed in a villa with a washer/dryer so I had plenty to wear👍🏻😁
Great video! I like the blue one, just because it looks like a few extras can go in on the way home 😊
Super helpful video! Thanks for the laundry detergent reminder. Adding it to my packing list now. Try weighing your luggage on its side so you don’t strain yourself. 😊
God bless this woman! Her :yt:MIRBAG:yt: bag is amazing
If you're wearing a coat, wear the crossbody bag. That'll reduce a bit of weight. Then use it as a foot sling instead of a separate one.
I have the Bric’s bag and it’s helpful if you use the compression straps in the inside. It makes the bag look slimmer.
I love this video Aly! I just ordered the travel pro max lite 5 for my next trip. I am carry-on only too but wanted to try a lighter bag. I love the Bric bag too but it's soooooo pricey compared to the max lite. Would love to see what you think of the max lite after a 2 week trip. Safe travels! Love your videos!
Thanks!
Blue one is my fav
