    This really works! I had to pack my husbands, mine and daughters ALL wardrobes due to moving... target was 2 large suitcases. I packed 189 items (tracksuits, jeans, trousers, jackets,dresses etc) this way! Absolutely amazing!
    Combined it with folding×rolling technique and packed in another 67 items, mainly Tshirts!
    Thank you so much for this video 🤗👍

      Isn’t this technique just incredible! I’m always amazed! 😮it’s like magic! I have used this since seeing it here several years ago. I have even put the bundle into a large ebags packing cube to get a bit of compression. Cheers!

    This video is magic and it works! I use this method for all air travel. I fit 10 days of winter clothes in carryon for trip to Italy. Clothes actually stay pretty unwrinkled. I use it on business trips. It's really not inconvenient to do bundles. TSA has never opened it and messed it up. You can put fragile items in the center of the bundle and they don't break. I'm so glad I found this video years ago and I thank the company that produced it!

      Two weeks of travel - I bring my Jansport day pack and that's it. I've used a carry-on for trips up to 8 months. But I wear the same dress every day at home. Minimize your wardrobe - you won't own enough stuff to fill a carry-on. LOL. th-cam.com/video/k5PphfiEf3Q/w-d-xo.html

  • @eileenthomas856

    I have been using this method for several years now. It's the best result for me. Clothing doesn't wrinkle much. Since I pack with liquids, I place the bundle(s) inside a large plastic bag just in case something leaks. Thank you for this great advice!

    I’ve watched other “ how to pack” videos- this is very helpful! Love the alternating garments, and had seen this done... also, A note to frequent travelers who sometimes have their bags opened and searched by TSA, TSA appreciates a neat, well organized bag. I also, if I have anything breakable , bubble wrap the item , place it in the middle of the bag... and I include a list of my items on top / I’ve traveled many times from MSY to SeaTac .. using packing organizers does help... even large zip lock bags etc.- great tips.happy flying.

    I'm a very seasoned traveler and thought I'd mastered the art of packing until I tried this technique. It's incredible! I've managed to pack several weeks of clothes into just a carry-on multiple times so far -- it's easy to fit a LOT in a small space, so only challenge is keeping it within the weight limit. Thanks so much for the great tips!

      Weekend to 3 months at a time. I just decide where and go.
      Always traveled with carry on and daypack but a little different than that.

    I commend you on being able to pack so incredibly light! I am in shock that this is all you are bringing for a two month trip! Last time I went to France for two months I bought five of the largest suitcases permitted on commercial airlines and also two mid size bags. One mid size bag is just for shoes and purses and and the other is just for cosmetics. The full size bags were filled with dresses, suits and such. I really need to take some inspiration from you and learn to pack like you. I'm not sure I would be able to do it! Love and light honey and happy travels! XOXO

    Great demo! I'm going to Australia for a couple of months and will definitely use your method. I can see that it would work just as well with a larger suitcase (would be able to take a few more clothes!). I would pack the jeans, which are the heaviest garment, first and fold them in the suitcase first. Then, you can use your method for the rest of the clothing! Thanks so much for your time in sharing your method!!

    This really does work, even if you want to pack several people into a large wheeled suitcase. I have done this method the last 3 cruises I have taken. All my husbands, my 12 year old, and my clothes for a 7 day cruise fit into my largest wheeled suitcase. All my other stuff in another suitcase. Will pack like this every trip!

    In Australia and New Zealand you can only take 7 kilos (15 pounds) in total as carry-on luggage. But it looks like a good idea. Might try to adapt it for my larger suitcase.

    I've been doing this for years,(now retired travel agent) after seeing a bag out on the tarmac with a zipper that popped when a handler threw a bag up into cargo. Clothes were every where. If that happens to a bag packed your way the handler can just pick up the bundle and put it back in and tape the bag shut.
    I agree that if you're on a tour of a different city every other day you need to make separate bundles like all pants in one and tops in another.

    I only take a pair of tennis shoes and then flip-flops... Then enough clothes for 5 days, then I sink wash them if there is no washing machine available. My family is large and we criss-crossed the country a lot when I was a kid so we all learned to travel light.

    You don´t have to rifle through every layer if you pack bundles, say 4 tops together, 2 pants together, etc. When you want something lower down, remove the bundles above it and place them back in. The toiletries and meds go on top instead of at the bottom, since you will use them every day. I also don´t pack things I can buy at the destination, like toothpase, shampoo. I have traveled carry-on only for many years. Thick and fluffy items, such as sweater, coat, jacket, get taken on the plane over my arm and can serve as extra cushioning during the flight.
