  2. Thank you Laurie! I just ordered the Level8 carryon luggage and a set of the compression cubes. What a great deal they were. I have a soft side carry on, but it's not stable when I put the personal item on (which is the stripped back pack!) but the part I don't like about it is, no side handle and at my age, I can lift it, but it's not easy. I also carry camera gear and I'm afraid the soft side will not protect it well enough. Thank you for the reccomendations! Oh did I mention I was almost taken out at the Phx airport because my soft sider was unstable and my backpack shifted, I had to hang onto the escalator for dear life….(I now take the elevator)

  3. A bit of a warning when traveling on non-American carriers: Those liquids bags with the zippers that round the corners will most likely get flagged because it is over the 1 litre limit. Just flew from Canada to Paris and had to transfer my liquids to their ziploc 1 litre bag,

  4. Hi Laurie. Great idea for the neck pillow. Those little bags are adorable! I have so many travel items that I feel I need to minimalize the stuff I ended up not using. This was a great video.

  5. Great tips. However, I've traveled for over 20 years wearing 2 small gold bracelets and have never had an issue. Why would you wear plastic jewelry–I'd rather wear nothing rather than plastic, just seems kind of cheap. No offense, I love you Laurie. Always appreciate your postings and have followed you for years.

  6. Bought that tech bag for my son and son-in-law for Christmas, since both of them will be traveling. Well, I’ll prob get one for me, too, who am I kidding 😅

  7. Just got back from London and couldn't have gone with the portable charger, iWalk. It's small but powerful. The maps app or citymapper app (the BEST) use up a lot of power and this thing is wonderful!! It's on sale during amazon days only $27

  8. Just wanted to thank you for always giving great tips to minimize the nerves when traveling. I just returned from traveling solo to meet up with my son (and then rented a car to sightsee as we headed home). I wanted to only bring a carry-on and personal bag. Going through security was easy because of all your tips. Once through, I moved to the side and took my time putting my shoes back on and getting re-situated. Because it was a full flight and small plane (CRJ), they asked for volunteers to gate check their bag. I decided to do that. Just needed to bring it right up to the plane when boarding and it was pulled off as soon as we landed (didn't need to go to baggage claim). I needed to ask for a belt extender (didn't need it on the same airline, larger plane a few months ago). But that went smooth and I didn't feel uncomfortable asking. The last time I flew, I sat with my daughter so I had someone to hold items as I got settled in my seat. This time, I bought a phone lanyard to put around my neck in the plane so I didn't have to worry about dropping my phone. A big peace of mind. Even when I got to the car rental, I felt comfortable enough to ask the attendant to help me link my GPS. All in all, your videos have helped me get back to enjoying traveling.

  9. I love love love my Phoozy phone case protector. I attached a name-tag lanyard to the ring and wear it around my neck for easy access to snap pictures, or use the phone while touring, or at DisneyWorld.

  10. Want to share a tip. I’m headed for 18 day trip to Christmas Markets and London. I have a day/night face routine that includes face wash, exfoliant, 4 serums, 3 moisturizers. So I filled those small containers with my serums, and purchased mini sample size of my moisturizers. Now I’m doing my day/night routine using my travel containers for 18 days to see if I can get by with the travel sizes.

  11. You need to tell us the exact fabric of all pj's and the travel clothes. No matter how soft they are, they need to be 95-100% natural materials (cotton, rayon, modal, wool, etc.)! If the fabric contains more than 5% of a synthetic material, then it creates static electricity that is very unpleasant to deal with and bad for your health. Synthetic materials like polyester, nylon, etc. should be avoided in any clothes.

  12. I thought of a couple more ideas for overcrowded liquids bags. 1) If you do not have finicky hair, a small bottle of Sea to Summit Wilderness Wash can be used as body was, shampoo, laundry soap, and to wash dishes (even in a hotel, I have my spoon and cook mug to wash out a few times a day, and I hand wash a few items in the hotel sink every evening). Also, a Trader Joes shampoo bar is under $4. You can buy one before your trip, use it for both body and hair, and either put it in a soap bag or ziploc to bring home or, if you don't want to bother, at less than $4 you can afford to just toss it at the end of your travels. Smells great too!

  13. I also like the memobottle A6 reusable flat water bottle. It fits well in a belt bag, some purses, the airplane seat pocket, and the outer pockets of the striped backpack you have. It’s very sturdy. The occasional TSA agent thinks it a flask though!

  14. Laurie, I've taken your tips and advice to heart. For a hopefully near future trip to London, I've purchased a cross body bag, and a surprisingly elegant looking backpack. I've also gotten a cord case in gray, and a cute makeup case in black. I'm just determined to relax on this trip and for once, not overpack and overcarry. Another recent trip found me struggling to carry my heavy purse. Never again. Completely unnecessary. Thanks for so many great tips!

  15. I got the phone prop mentioned in the video, today from Amazon, and it’s good. Light, and clips easily to my purse for when I will need it. I don’t have a stand built into my phone case, so this double duty product is great.

  16. I don''t think I ever thanked you after my trip. In May I went from Florida to Arizona and had not been on a plane in about 25 years. I went carry on only. It was very smooth sailing. No trouble at all even at the TSA they didn't even ask me to take out my liquids bag or medicine bag. Maybe they could see it on the scanner in my suitcase. Thanks again.

  17. Laurie, I ordered the tray table cover and received it. Have you used it? It seems that the pockets would be flimsy/not tight enough to hold up what you have in the pockets.

  18. 15:16. HI Laurie, I just received the small crossbody purse and I'm already planning on ordering another color. I can't believe how much it holds, I like the faux leather and lastly the number of compartments. Thank you for the recommendation.

  19. Hi Laurie THANK YOU! I got the stripped backpack through your link on Amazon. I got gray and pink because that’ll match with my other stuff got the other day and it is perfect!! Will be traveling to Europe next year on an airline that has very restrictive sizes for carry-on & personal items! I know I’m going to be able to do it.

  20. By far, most of my air travel has been to visit family. It’s not really a vacation. So I keep toiletries and a few clothing items at my mother’s place and don’t have to pack so much. But these are still helpful hints.

  21. I got the metal lock for doors and wish I could return it, but it's too late now. I've stayed at 8 different hotels and this lock was useless. It would not fit around the deadbolt of any of the doors. It was too small :/ I will look into the door alarm and see how that goes.
