The vacation is in full swing, and many people are leaving for their long-awaited break. Before leaving, however, you must still plan what to bring and how to pack your luggage. One flight attendant shared an interesting trick that might be useful during packing.

Some people meticulously prepare lists of items to bring, while others take a more spontaneous approach, tossing random items into their bags. However, there is one way to transport clothes clean and undamaged.

How to pack for a trip?

Packing can be tricky, especially if you plan to travel to places with variable weather. It's a real challenge to fit everything in your suitcase – clothes, underwear, beach gear, and even a small first aid kit. To avoid overpacking, it's worth using a few tricks that make packing easier.

Rolling T-shirts instead of folding them saves a lot of space, and transferring cosmetics into smaller containers is also very practical. Putting medicines into small containers instead of taking an entire pharmacy with you is a good idea. Book lovers might consider taking small, pocket-sized editions or an e-reader instead of large books.

Why a shower cap in the suitcase?

What should you do when you want to bring an extra pair of shoes but are worried they might dirty the rest of your luggage? A flight attendant revealed a tip that can help. You should have shower caps. Putting the soles of your shoes inside a shower cap will protect your clothes from getting dirty. If you don't have a shower cap, a regular plastic bag will work just as well. This trick is also helpful for transporting liquid cosmetics that might spill – placing them in a shower cap or plastic bag will protect the rest of the suitcase's contents from any potential leaks.
