Pack tightly. Packing loosely wastes precious space and causes clothes to wrinkle.
Use a divider shelf to separate accessories, irregularly shaped items, and shoes from your garmeats.
You may also want to stuff your shoes with underwear or socks so they won't be crushed during your travels.
Suits, dresses, shirts, and blouses should be packed in a plastic dry cleaner bags to limit wrinkling.
Roll pajamas, nightgowns, sweaters, and other casual wear to fill small spaces when possible, BUT don't cram your suitcase full. If you have to force your luggage to close, remove a few items to prevent broken hinges or zippers along the way.
Try the "interweaving method" of packing for your next trip. Drape longer garments such as dresses and pants around the suitcase with the ends hanging over the sides. Then fold shorter items such as jackets, shirts and blouses around the longer garments so that the clothes cushion each other. Placing a piece of tissue paper between each layer of clothing will help prevent wrinkling.
Pack each item one at a time in a clockwise direction. When you have filled the bottom of the suitcase, begin the next layer packing each item in a counter clockwise direction. In this way, you will form. one complete package of your clothes, eliminating wrinkles and securing all of your contents.
Always carry your travel documents, medication, jewelry, traveler’s checks, keys and other valuables in your hand luggage. These items should NEVER be packed in luggage you plan to check.
To avoid travel delays when you depart check with the Transportation Security Administration to verify that the items you are carrying on the plane are allowed onto the aircraft. You'll find a complete list of prohibited items on TSA website.
