• Pack light! Do not pack anything that you will not use.

• Lay out everything that needs to be packed. Check off your list.

• If you are spending several days in one destination, place shoes and odd shaped items on the bottom of your suitcase. Fill in with socks and underwear.

• Roll knits. They will be easier to tuck into spaces and rolling cuts down on wrinkles. Roll several things together for creaseless travel.

• Place folded items on the top.

• If you are moving from destination to destination during your trip, use the layer method of packing. Pack according to your itinerary with everything needed for each day in a layer.

• Use the interior straps to hold items in place
