Travel Packing Tips: 3 Clothing Essentials

Posted on 26 July 2009 by NYCcheaphotels

In a couple of days, you’ll be on your way to your destination. Whether you’re driving, flying, or even hiking, you need some sort of plan. So for now, it’s time to start packing! We’ve got 3 travel packing tips for selecting the outfits that should go from your endless closet to your very limited suitcase!

  1. Choose appropriate clothing for the climate. Summer in New York is a lot different than summer in Texas, just as winter in Florida is very different from Colorado! Check the weather forecast for the needed dates. Don’t hesitate to add an extra pair of pants just in case it get windy in the spring, or extra capris if it gets warm in fall.
  2. Sacrafice jeans, not tee’s. Denim takes up a lot of space in a suitcase. Check your bag now. How many pairs of jeans are you packing ? When you’re on vacation, there really is no need to pack 5 pairs of jeans for a week-long stay. Instead, pick out 2 different shades and pay $0.25 to use the washer if necessary.
  3. Suitcases and shoes were not meant to be. Shoes are difficult, clunky, and heavy! Limit yourself to a pair of comfortable shoes to walk in, a pair of dress shoes (only if needed!), and sandals/flip flops. If you;re traveling by air, wear the bulkiest pair on board.

*Bonus travel packing tip*- Roll your clothes up instead of folding them. It will prevent wrinkles and also save a lot of space.

Packing clothes isn’t so hard, now is it? Follow these travel packing tips, and you’re sure to see a lot more room in your bags.
