2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 [Next] - When I fly, I replace the shoelaces on my travelling shoes with 1/4-inch braided elastic to ease the pain of swollen feet - works well with walking footwear. Also, I carry my important ID in a separate holder. And, I have a 'phony' wallet for the pickpocket. I also use 'bicycle' cable locks for my luggage when long waits are expected. 1-Jan-2000 William McDonald ID806 - Organize your wardrobe around one or two color schemes. This way you don't have to pack as much and you can mix-and-match outfits each day! LuggageOnline.com 18-Dec-2003 LuggageOnline.com ID1584 - Airlines in Europe (and Australia) have much stricter carry-on policies than in the US - and the policies are enforced. Don't assume you can carry-on your wheeled carry-on; in most cases you can't. Within Europe, SAS is always bad, BA is generally bad, Alitalia isn't too bad, Meridiana seems to have erratic carry-on enforcement, as does Iberia. Within Australia you have to check all but the smallest bags. It's best to plan to carry your most important items in a small briefcase and be prepared to check everything else. (And DO complain to carriers with draconian carry on policies). 1-Jan-2000 David King ID822 - Make a list of everything you pack and keep it with you. If your luggage is lost, you will have a complete checklist of all of your belongings for the airline. 1-Jan-2000 Leah Mercer ID818 - If your itinerary is reasonably firm, make a clothing diary. Prepare a list of clothing items you think you want to bring on your trip. Insert outfits into each day of travel based on where you might be visiting. Try to get several wearings out of each piece of clothing. If you find that an item is only worn once, or if you aren't wearing most of your clothing items several times, perhaps those articles of clothing should be left at home. Bring 'Shout' wipes or a similar product for those accidental stains. 1-Jan-2000 Karen Skaja ID817 Would You Like to Add a Travel Tip?We welcome QUALITY travel tips from our users.Note: you will be required to enter the characters from a security image, so please make sure that you have your browser set to view images.
