How to Pack Toiletries, Makeup and Meds in a Carry-On Luggage
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มิ.ย. 2024
- Airport security rules can make packing your toiletries challenging - especially when it comes to liquids. Today I'll show you how to efficiently pack toiletries, makeup, and meds when traveling only with carry-on luggage.
Here are my top tips to pack a TSA-approved toiletry bag.
All liquids must be placed in a 3 oz (50ml) or less sized container.
All liquids need to be packed in a clear quart-sized bag.
All liquid medication or makeup must also be placed in that clear bag.
The TSA-approved toiletry bag must then be taken out of the bag when passing airport security.
All other toiletries, makeup or medication that is not a gel or a liquid can be placed in the carry-on with no problem.
Here is a list of the toiletries listed in the video (with paid links from Amazon):

Excellent. So many packing videos they ignore the TSA regulations. You’ve done a really thorough job here.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the feedback. Cheers!
missmayflower Agreed! I watch a lot of packing videos, and you’re the first person i’ve seen who puts the correct things in the quart-sized liquids bag. Most people don’t put makeup products in there; and I’m not sure how people get away with this.
@@arila656 I guess some TSA agents are more lax than others but I've been stopped once for forgetting lipgloss in my backpack so I put all liquids in my TSA approved bag now, even makeup.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts hi can you tell me if we can carry make up in non clear normal cloth make up bags in Checked in luggage? Or is the clear bag rules apply for check in too?
This video was VERY helpful for me when packing my necessities for my trip to Dallas recently. It was my first flight and even with TSA precheck, I wanted to make sure I did everything the right way. When I got to the airport, I was able to go through security like a BOSS! No issues at all! 😎 Thank you so much for sharing!
Quick tip. If you store the liquids horizontally it fits better and have more space
Thanks, I'll try that out!
Probably one of the best, detailed packing toiletries video I have seen. Thank you so much for this.
Thanks for watching! Cheers!
I've never seen those little sink laundry packs. I'm planning a two-week European vacation over the Christmas holidays. Those will come in really handy!
I get them at the drug store or at Walmart in the travel section. I also provided a paid link for them in my description. Have a wonderful trip!
Thanks, Alex! I'm sort of last minute panicky about getting everything I need into my carry on. Wish I had know in advance about taking all meds in their original containers. I need to try to get my meds in smaller bottles in the future!
This will be my first trip over the weekend and wanted to make sure I have things appropriately organized to make the process go smoothly. This video is detailed and very helpful! Thank you!
The best video on this I've seen.. Straight to the point and actually showing which things go where. So great ! Thank you for uploading 😁
Thank you, I am happy I could help! Happy Travels!
I just skipped through 6 other videos and yours was the best. Easy to see, and understand.
Thank you so much. Really appreciate the positive feedback. Happy Travels!
Such a clear, detailed video! Thank you so much.
Your welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you. Checking updated TSA requirements due to the age of this original video...these tips are still very helpful. Thanks, Alex! For even more space efficiency in that 3-1-1 liquids bag, toothpaste tablets work great! 😊
100% Thanks
I love travel so much 😍 and I always watch your travel and packing ideas. Also I love Alex goes coconut.
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you for this great video. Easy to understand😀
Thank you 😊
Thank you sooooooo much for this detailed video! I could not find any video's on TH-cam to help me with packing the 2nd, 3rd or 4th bag for air travel that you showed. Everyone I came across skipped those bags for carry-on and only talked about the first bag with liquids. I had become extremely frustrated because the last thing I need is to get stopped by TSA and have my Luggage searched. TSA website didn't help with that either. Again, thank you so much, I honestly could not have finished packing had I not found your channel! I can finish packing and start relaxing before my trip!!!
You are so welcome! Let me know if you have any other questions. Have a a nice trip and stay safe!
Very helpful. Great tips about prescription medications. Thanks!
Thank you so much! Happy Travels!
Excellent, concise, video thank you!❤️👍
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the feedback. Cheers!
Alex goes Coconuts 🙏🐱🐾🐾 Cheers! Happy Travels!😊💖
This is my first time fly and it helped me a lot
Thanks. Very helpful!
Thank you! Happy travels, cheers!
Thank you so much! You did the best job at helping me know how to pack not only the liquids but all the other categories of toiletries. Nobody else seems to cover this, so I was concerned that I'd get it wrong and be questioned by TSA. This is my first time traveling without a check-in, so I really want to get it right.
Glad it was helpful!
Just found your channel and subscribed! Great video!
Thank you so much! Appreciate the positive feedback. Cheers!
Thanks for this video, Alex! I'll try this minimalist way of packing. I am a heavy packer and good thing Nomad Lane Bento bag is spacious enough to fit all of my things inside.
Thank you so much for watching!
Your video was AWESOME and very INFORMATIVE! Thank you so much. New subscriber.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it. ;)
Thank you so much. It's my first time traveling alone so I don't know what to bring. I'll just pack whatever you packed.
Glad I could help. Happy travels!
New subscriber I love how you do you’re toiletries step-by-step I am going to follow this. Thank You
So happy you liked my video! Thank you for the sub.;)
You've Helped me so much.
Oh good! Glad I could help. Have a safe trip!
It was very. helpful! And everything went so smoothly. I used my new Away Carry-on, too, and learned from people who've had these for years that they're excellent, work at all airlines, and the company quickly replaces any broken parts, no matter what, including wheels, zippers, etc.
So happy you had a smooth trip! Thanks for the tip
Great suggestions!! 👍
Thank you! Happy Travels!
Great video!! Thank you very much.
Thank you so much Appreciate it. Have a wonderful weekend.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts Thank you! 🥰
If I’m only going for a week I put my moisturizer in one half of a contact lens case and my lotion in the other! It lessens what I need to bring.
Great information! I'll put it to use soon. I really like the TSA bag. I need to find one!
Amazon, great bags for traveling
Beware that amazon has a lot of these bags branded as being TSA approved and quart sized but they are actually larger. You might be let through with it, but they can stop you and make you put your liquids into a quart sized ziploc. Read the dimensions of the bag and calculate it’s volume. 1 quart is 57.75 cubic inches
@@michaelaburroughs2651 Thank you for the information.
I suggest the Lermende Toiletry bag. That is the one I used in this video. It is the right size (1 quart). Plus, it is made with a good quality PVC and it is leakproof/waterproof. Here is an affiliate link for it on Amazon: amzn.to/2m3bGqD.
Thank you thank you thank you!!! 🤗
Great video thanks
Thanks for watching
Great video to show what different size liquids can fit! I also keep my official Non-Liquid Toiletry Companion Bag near my ziploc. My understanding is liquid or gel medications are not limited to the 311 bag but have to be removed and placed in the tray. I would imagine prescriptions like insulin will be no problem, but over-the-counter hydrocortisone might depend on the officer.
Yes, that is correct. They are not limited to the 3-1-1 bag but it just makes it more convenient when pulling out the bag for security. Also if it is a prescription medication in liquid form larger than 3 oz, it does not have to fit in the 3-1-1 bag, but will have to be taken out when passing security and put in the bin. Some security officers may even ask for documentation depending on the medication. The more well-known meds like insulin and Epipens will not be a problem.
Excelent video, ✌
Thanks 😊
Great video
Thank you for watching 😉
Thank you so much for your explanations on how to pack items. I have a travel container for extra medication so I don’t have to pack my actual prescription bottles. My prescriptions come in very large 3 month supply bottles, so packing them is extremely impractical.
Thank you that will help me.
Great! Thanks for watching
Btw thank you for the video u did great at explaining
Thank you so much. Appreciate it!
Thanks so much!
Thank you for watching!
What were the dimensions of the larger bag you used at the end and brand if possible? Great video!
This is great! I leave for a vacation 10/31 and am trying to transition to as many solids as possible.
Great! Have a safe trip!
Great video - I wanted to mention that if you have a prescription in cream or liquid form it does need to go in your liquid bag - make sure it’s labeled by the pharmacy - and I keep all of my prescriptions together in case TSA wants to check.
Yes it is different from place to place. I finally asked a TSA officer and he told me to put liquid meds in a separate ziplock bag and pull it out with your quart sized toiletry bag. There is no limit on liquid medications, especially if they are prescribed. Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you so much for this video , it was very helpful!! we are going to Cancun and don’t want to check in any bags
Happy I could help!Have a wonderful vacation, Cheers!
Thank you💯
Thanks for watching ;)
Hi love the big clear travel toiletries bag. What brand is it and where did u buy it from. Thanks
I started giving my older child a sunscreen stick last year and it made it so much easier!
Yes, it was such a better solution for my kids too
Awesome
Thanks!
I may go down jersey shore again this summer. i found a laundry detergent pods of snuggle for 2.99 and i test one at my washer and it seem to be fine and i love it so i am bring mine with me and saving it. it small size bag too i believe it is 20 pack, but i love watching how other pack videos in mean time give me some ideas. we take south west with 2 check in bag and we take also 2 small carry on like a backpack and a camera bag :) what your thought for me to pack in august for a month this summer i want pack less i can always run into stores should i try for 2 weeks this year?
Wow 🤩 it’s cool
Thanks😊
finally after watching 2 videos, this is what I.m looking for.
Great! Happy I could help!
@@AlexgoesCoconuts Hi Alex, for medicine bag, is there a specific size that I should Use? My medicine bag would contain 4 bottles of vitamins, so a small one like you use in the video is not enough. Thank you very much!
@@bo-deng8182 Any size of medicine bag is allowed. It is only your liquids bag that has to be in a quart sized bag. Just make sure that your vitamins are allowed in the country you are traveling to. Some countries have different regulation on medicine and herbal remedies.
I once did a carry on luggage only trip and in the uk our prescription come in blister packs in boxes not bottles and I was super limited on space cos I needed loads of layers cos I was going somewhere cold. The method I found was bring a repeat prescription and cut off the box labels for each medication. For non prescription med that I needed to cut don’t the blister packs I made sure the full name and disease what still full visable of the bit I kept.
Great suggestions! Thanks for sharing
LUGGAGE TIPS 1, 2, 3
Tie two or three colored ribbons around the handle to your luggage to warn others that this is not their luggage. People grab luggage at the turnstile and take it home before you ever see it.
Anywhere you put your bag, it could be grabbed in error. Example: overhead compartment, unloaded from the bus, at the hotel lobby, at the airport turnstile...
These ribbons make your luggage different and EASY TO SPOT when the piece is surrounded by 35 other cases unloaded from the bus.
Use 1” wide ribbons 14” long and not longer. Cut the ends at 45 degrees.
Scissor cut trim the ribbons to cascading different lengths after they are tied. Put a drop of Super Glue at the end.
If each ribbon is slightly a different length by 1/4” the color layers will all show up no matter how they drape.
Tie the 3 ribbons as a sandwich, as if they were one ribbon. Use a man’s tie, a half Windsor knot for the best look. After it is tied on, the total length of the ribbons will be about 5 inches from the handle. This is too short to catch on anything.
You can see this ribbon from 40 feet away. Perhaps tie TWO handles or RINGS top and side of the case. This way, it won’t slide around. This knot does not loosen.
Put your phone number on one ribbon using a permanent Sharpie.
Example: “Owner 454-333-7878”
Choose one ribbon with an unusual pattern or fabric to really make it unique.
Stand by the output port of the turnstile to reduce the chance of someone else grabbing your piece.
Tie your skiies, duffel bag, backpack and what ever else with matching ribbons-even your computer case.
If you are a Travel Agent, you could hot gold stamp one ribbon with your name and phone number. Send them a set of ribbons, red and blue and BLACK to your customer as a gift. Record this gift in your database so you don’t duplicate yourself.
Buy a gold hot embossing machine. Gold emboss your business name on the BLACK ribbon. Put the customer’s name on it if possible.
Pleasant color combinations:
Red and blue
Chartreuse and purple
Orange and light blue
Orange and yellow
Gray and pink
Green and yellow
Red and Green
Red and Gold
Light blue and light green
The third ribbon could be white, gray, black, tan
Tip #2 Take a cell phone picture of the ribbon tied on. Then another picture of the full luggage piece. You now have a way to communicate “what it looks like” if someone is tasked with searching for it. Take this picture outside in direct sun.
Tip #3 Place a strip of colored duct tape on the inside lining to your case. Put your name and phone number on this tape. If all identity is stripped from your case, you have this to show. If someone steals it and rips off identity tags, you can show the police officer the inside tape...
Great advice! Thanks for sharing❤️
Look again
I take some things like the bar soap out of the original container and put them in a ziplock bag to save space. And you can put it back in the ziplock bag after it is wet if you need to travel to another place.
You got a lot of stuff in those bags! Great job!
Yes, you are right. I usually put it in a reusable soap container that I place in a ziplock, but I forgot to do that for the video. LOL
@@janetwheeler3908 Thanks ;)
You aren’t the only one lol Thank you for your tips!
Love your clear plastic non liquid form bag. I would like to try to buy one. What brand is it and where did you get it from. Thank you
I got it a long time ago. Here is an alternative from Amazon: amzn.to/3R1hx9t (paid link). Hope that helps!
You could even take the tide out of that hard plastic package for more room. Also if you lay your items horizontally more will fit.
Great advise. Thanks
This is so helpful, thank you so much. Just one question, I though medication was excluded from the “must fit in the liquid quarter bag” rule. Is that not the case anymore? Thank you.
Yes, you are right! You don't need to pack liquid meds in your 3-1-1 bag.
Just wanted to clarify that all liquid medication is exempt from the 3-1-1 liquid rules so it does not have to packed in your liquid bag. However you should put your liquid meds in separate ziplock bag and pull it out along with your quart sized toiletry bag. All prescription meds should be well indicated and in their original packaging.
It's so travel friendly.....
Thanks for watching ;)
Cool video! Does that squeezable bottle have the amount on it? Ever had any issues if it doesn’t say?
No they come standard 3oz. Never had a problem
Thank you Alex. I didn’t know I have to put all liquids,creams,gel in one bag. I was putting meds in one and makeup in one. Now I see to mixed it in one bag for liguids.
Happy I could help! Happy Travels!
Great video wld Vaseline be solid ?
No, Vaseline is considered a liquid so will need to go in your liquids bag. (Sorry for the late reply, just saw the question now). Thanks for watching
So my make remover wipes, witch hazel wipes or booty wipes don't need to be in the liquid bag?
How does one know if the bag is TSA approved?
First view
First thumbs up
First comment .
I'm learning English from your video.
Very cool! Thanks for watching! Good luck on learning English.
Do they sell travel size hand wash? Going on a cruise and I wanna bring my own hand wash.
Just get a travel size bottle and fill it with your favourite hand wash. Here is a travel bottle set that I recommend: amzn.to/2QKky1w (this is a paid link). Hope that helps. Have fun on your cruise.
They also have soap leaves. Look on amazon.
Hallo, where I can keep small size " Hair spray", reply will be appreciated. Thanks. Zz from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes you can bring a travel sized hair spray.You will have to put it into your 3-1-1 toiletry bag (TSA approved bag) and the bottle has to be travel size (3.4 oz/100ml or less). Hope that helps!
The makeup wipes don’t have to go into the liquid quart size bag? What about a travel pack of Clorox wipes?
Sorry I missed your question. I'll answer the question anyway: no Clorox wipes don't have to go into the liquid bag either. Thanks for watching
Question. Would a lipstick that's solid be considered liquid ? Also can I use plain bottle that don't say wuts inside
Yes, lipstick is considered a solid (not a liquid) so it is fine to pack in your carry on. As for your second question, you can use any bottle (clear or coloured) as long as it is travel sized and does not exceed 3.4 oz. (100 ml). Hope that helps. Thanks for watching;)
London Heathrow made me remove all liquid items from the TSA approved (quart) clear bag and put them in their smaller plastic bag supplied. I was only allowed one of their small plastic bags and everything else was tossed.
Good to know! Certain countries have different travel restrictions. It’s best to check before heading to the airport. When I travel within China, I’m not allowed any liquids in my carryon. Thanks for sharing! 😉
Omg
Very helpful video! I just have a question. For the travel size razor, I thought those are not allowed through TSA security check? I went to the TSA website and it says razors have to be in checked baggage. Did you have any problems?
Disposable razors and electric razors are allowed on carry on luggage, however safety razors are not permitted in your carry-on luggage with the blade. They’re fine to pack in your carry-on without the blade. The blades must be stored in your checked luggage. The same applies for straight razors. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching!
@@AlexgoesCoconuts Thank you for your quick response! I am going to Greece next month so been hearing horror stories about people losing their luggage. I never carry luggage on board, I always check it in but I wanted to change it up this time around. For the disposable razors, would the Gillette Venus Mini Extra Smooth Razor on amazon be considered a disposable razor that we could carry? Or the blade has to come off?
@@xytera8477 Yes that is what I travel with, here is the link if your looking for it: amzn.to/3QezaSQ (paid link) . It is only the old school razor where the blades come off that are not allowed. Everyday razors are allowed.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts thank you so much :)
Do you need documentation for an epipen?
No you don't need a doctor's note for it. Usually I leave mine in the original box it came in and I make sure that the pharmacy label is on it so that the security officer can see the name of the doctor who prescribed it to me.
Thanks for sharing. Amazed to see how your skincare routine is so lean.. no cleanser, no toner, no serum. I usually pack the whole suite of skincare along during travel, as i didn't want my skin to 'suffer'. Problem for me is estimating the quantity to bring for a 2 weeks trip. Any tips?
Hi Duki! You can put most of all your skincare products in pill sized containers or in a couple of contact lens cases. Quite a lot of products fits into those containers and can easily carry two-weeks worth of products. When I pack for two weeks in my carry-on I usually end up putting all my liquids into those containers to save on space.
As for my skincare routine, when I travel, I keep it to a minimum. I use Marcelle Face wipes to remove dirt and makeup and bring face cream to hydrate my skin. The rest of my usual skincare products stay at home. I found that I can survive a week or two just with basic water and soap but that's just me. If you want to bring more, just reduce the size of the containers. Hope that helps. Have a wonderful trip! Thanks for watching.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts thanks for tips... will try them out in my next travel. 👍
To gauge toiletries for a trip, a couple of weeks before you go fill your containers and make a note of the day you started using them this way you will know how many days worth you have in each container. Just make sure your daughter isn't using them without your knowledge, otherwise your calculations will be up the spout. 🤣 your travel tips are invaluable thank you so much x
I didn’t notice deodorant either. Did I miss it?
What about a body wash sponge? Can we pack that? And can we take regular razors? Or eyebrow razors?
Hi Cherrie! Yes you can bring a body sponge on your carry-on. As for razors, disposable razors are permissible in carry-on luggage. Disposable razors are the kind that are completely disposable (handle and all), or the kind where you replace them with cartridges. Safety razors are not permitted in your carry-on luggage because the razor blades are so easy to remove. They’re fine to pack in your carry-on without the blade. The same applies for straight razors. Electric razors are permitted in both checked and carry-on bags. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
What about prescription medications?im planning a trip.and have never flown before. Do I have to bring the bottles?
Yes when bringing prescription medication you should bring the original bottle it came in so that if you are stopped by a customs officer they can see the name of the medication as well as who prescribed it. Make sure you carry all your meds in your carry on with you. Also, if traveling to a different country make sure the medication you are bringing is legal in that country. You don't want any trouble with customs. Have a wonderful trip and stay safe!
Pretty certain that liquid prescription medications are not subject to the 3-1-1 thing. You will have to get those scanned separately.
You are right. Liquid meds do not have to go into your 3-1-1 bag. Thanks for sharing!
I have a question. Is Venus travel size razor actually allowed in your carry on or backpack? Because you know the rule about sharp things…
Yes they are allowed. Electric razors and razors that have the blade set into a plastic moulding are permitted in carry-on baggage. You are however not allowed to bring loose razor blades in your hand luggage, but you can pack these in your hold luggage. Hope that answers your question.
I’ll be traveling to Greece soon to spend three months there. I don’t think one bag will hold everything I’ll absolutely need so I’m quite scared for that part 😂
Wow, how wonderful. For three months, I would carry my liquids and products in my checked luggage. I would forgo the carry on. Have a wonderful trip.
would inhalers be considered liquids? i’m not sure if i should put them with my other medications, or my liquids.
No they are considered meds. You don't need to put them with your liquids.
Will i be able to mix my powders and makeup brushes with my liquids? Or should i separate them?
Your powder and brushes don’t need to go in the liquids bag but you can put them there if they fit
Tsa allows a separate bag for medicines. They don’t count against your single bag of liquids
Yes, you are right! I always packed my liquid meds in my 3-1-1 bag but found out that they do not count towards the single liquids rule. Thank you for sharing this info with my viewers! Cheers!
What about tanninglotion travel sprays
You can bring tanning spray as long as it’s travel sized (3.4oz/ 100ml). Hope that helps👍
is this toiletry bag ( the size) approved by Canadian TSA regulations? because i heard that American TSA rules vary from the Canadian TSA rules..
Yes it is the same size toiletry bag. Where they differ is the rules for medication. All meds need to be labeled and in their original bottles and packaging in Canada.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts Thank u❤️
Are you allowed to take the travel razor on a carry on
Yes you are!
Alex goes Coconuts thank you for replying
@@marcelamendoza7654 My pleasure, have a great trip!
Alex goes Coconuts thank you
Does the solids toiletry bag have to be clear?
No, only the liquid bag has to be clear. It also does not have to be taken out of your travel bag when passing security.
When you pack your solid or powder makeup items do they need to be in a transparent bag or would TSA consider that two quart bags? Should i just go with a solid makeup bag to avoid confusion from TSA?
Not necessarily, only divide makeup if you can’t fit all your liquids into your 3-1-1 bag.
Can i do a back with a chapstick, lotion and toiletries stuff inside the back we carry under my feet
Yes as long as any liquid toiletries are in travel sized bottles (3.4 oz. or 100ml or less). Happy travels!
Hi, I had a question. Can we carry serum bottles in carry on? The glass ones. They are under 30 ml. Please help me out :'(
Yes you can carry liquid glass bottles on your carry on as long as they are under 100 ml.
@@AlexgoesCoconuts oh dear. Thank you for replying♥ helped me a lot
My pleasure! Have a great trip and stay safe!
Most of what is in your your second container to me has got to go in your liquids bag
Make sure to keep the total amount under 1 litre
Good point! Thanks for sharing!
So no dove bottles of soap or the big lotion?
No but you can pour your liquid soap into small travel bottle.
I was wondering about my makeup foundation bottle that is not plastic, its a glass container like yours cover girl, so its okay to have glass bottles too??? in carry on 😅
Yes glass bottles are allowed on carry on bags. Hope that helps. 👍
@@AlexgoesCoconuts oh yes finally someone who answers this, from all videos, yours its the most helpful!! Thank you so much 🙏

LUGGAGE TIPS 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
Tie three or four colored ribbons around the handle to your luggage to warn others that this is NOT THEIR luggage. People grab luggage at the turnstile and take it home before you ever see it. th-cam.com/video/q-gLsegazCs/w-d-xo.html
Anywhere you put your bag, it could be grabbed in error. Example: overhead compartment, unloaded from the bus, at the hotel lobby, at the airport turnstile...
th-cam.com/video/4NfX2W4DN7E/w-d-xo.html
These ribbons make your luggage different and EASY TO SPOT when the piece is surrounded by 35 other cases unloaded from the bus. Using 4 ribbons make it immediately different than other cases with 1 ribbon.
Use 1” wide ribbons 14” long and not longer. Cut the ends at 45 degrees.
Tie to the base of the handle, tie to the metal buckle. Thus, it will not slip along the handle.
Tie the ribbons as a sandwich, as if they were one ribbon. Use a man’s tie, a half Windsor knot for the best look. After it is tied on, the total length of the ribbons will be about 5 inches from the handle. This is too short to catch on anything such as rollers.

You can see these ribbons from 40 feet away.
Perhaps tie TWO handles or RINGS top and side of the case.
Tie using a HALF WINDSOR KNOT to the metal buckle ring of the handle.
Learn Half Windsor knot tying:
It is the 2nd example in this video
th-cam.com/video/X0yh5rKB9lE/w-d-xo.html
This knot does not loosen.
Put your phone number on one ribbon using a fine point permanent Sharpie.
Example: “Owner 454-333-7878”
No personal name necessary.
No address necessary on the ribbon.
Choose one ribbon with an unusual pattern or fabric to really make it unique. The 4th ribbon could be black color.
Stand by the output port of the turnstile to reduce the chance of someone else grabbing your piece.
Tie your skiies, duffel bag, backpack and what ever else with matching ribbons-even your computer case.
If you are a Travel Agent, you could hot gold stamp one ribbon with your name and phone number. Send them a set of ribbons, red and blue and BLACK to your customer as a gift. Record this gift in your database so you don’t duplicate yourself.
Buy a gold hot embossing machine. Gold emboss your business name on the BLACK ribbon. Put the customer’s name on it if possible.
Pleasant color combinations:
Red, white and blue
Chartreuse and purple and orange
Orange and light blue
Orange and yellow
Gray and pink
Green and yellow
Red and Green
Red and Gold
Light blue and light green and white
The 4th ribbon could be white, gray, black, tan
Tip #2 PICTURE RECORD
Take a cell phone picture of the ribbon tied on. Then another picture of the full luggage piece. Take a picture of the interior. You now have a way to communicate “what it looks like” if someone is tasked with searching for it.
You can show this picture to the searcher or attach a picture to your report for lost luggage.
Take this picture outside in direct sun not under neon lights.
Tip #3 INSIDE IDENTITY
Place a strip of colored duct tape on the inside lining to your case. Put TWO pieces in DIFFERENT places such as INSIDE a pocket to the case. If you dare, put your phone number DIRECTLY ON THE FABRIC Liner of the case WITHOUT USING TAPE. Or, put your name and phone number on this tape. If all identity is stripped from your case, you have this to show. If someone steals it and rips off identity tags, you can show the police officer the inside tape...
To be sneaky about the tape, put your phone number on the STICKY side of the tape. Nothing is on the surface side of this tape.
Tip #4 HIDDEN IDENTITY
Put your phone number on a 2” x 1/2” piece of fabric or plastic sheet. Use colored Duct tape, such as black or red or neon, to tape this message to the top side of the handle. This message is under the tape hidden from view. The lettering does not touch the sticky part. Wrap it 2-3 times. Also include Tips 1,2,3 above. If you need to prove identity of the case, just unwrap it and show.
Tip #5 ADDING UNIQUENESS
Use 4 ribbons
Add 1 designer ribbon
colored duct taped handle
Stencil SPRAY PAINT a 2” or smaller stencil letter or number or word or your initials to the suit case exterior surface in addition to using all the other ideas here. Stencil spray the BOTTOM OF THE CASE as well.
Stencil spray paint a letter to the TOP ribbon.
Use ribbons that are wider or more narrow than 1”.
Put a travel sticker on the case.

TL;DR Maybe make your own video? 😂
@@janicetribbiani7535 Not on my agenda.
Do you know if I can bring any herbal supplements with my carry on? And liquid herbal supplements like oil of oregano is that considered medication or goes in liquids bag? Thank you
Yes I often bring oil of oregano with me. It is a liquid so will have to be in your 3-1-1 bag. I do suggest you check with the country you are visiting to make sure all the supplements you are bringing with you are legal. You don't want to be stopped at customs for illegal drugs.
does the total size have to be less than 100ml, or none of the products should pass 100ml.. ?
No you can bring as much liquid as you want as long as all the products fit in a quart sized bag. Each bottle cannot be larger than 100 ml but there is no limit on the total amount of liquid. Hope that clears it up for you. Let me know if you have any other question. Happy Travels!
Disposable razors??
yes!
So I can have one bag for liquids and one bag for my makeup in my carry on?
Yes you can as long as you put your liquid makeup in the liquid bag. Thanks for watching 😉
Should I makeup items in pouch or ziplock
Only liquid makeup has to go into the liquids bag. Everything else can be put into the pouch and left in your carry-on. Hope that helps! Happy Travels!
My kid through his stick ("solid") deodorant into his carry-on and Heathrow security took all our luggage apart as a result. It was a violation of their 3-1-1- liquids rule. Pastes count as liquids. To be safe, put "solid" deodorant in your 3-1-1 container.
Never had this happen to me but hey, the security officer can do what they please so I guess it’s better not to take a chance. Thanks for sharing
I am confused about the 3-1-1 rule. You show 2 qt size bags. I thought the limit was one.
It is one quart size bag for all liquids. The other quart sized bag in my video is for my medication which does not count. It is excluded from the 3-1-1 liquid rule. The other toiletry bag is used for my dry good. All can go into the carry-on except the quart sized liquid bag which has to be pulled out when passing airport security. Hope that helps clarify it for you.
Do you have to keep your medications pulled out going through security?
It depends where you are traveling to. Always check the regulation of the countries you are flying in. Most places don't require you to pull out your meds but If you have any liquid medication, I would keep it out when passing security so that they won't need to search your bags. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
