Please don’t forget to pack necessities in your carryon/personal bag! Medication, glasses, toiletries, chargers, a change of underwear and something to sleep in if you get stranded. I usually take a large sleep shirt. They don’t take up much room. I’ve been stuck overnight many times, and doing this makes everything so much easier.
I prefer a camisole and yoga pants as sleep wear. Takes up very little room. Or depending on the season, can be worn under your clothing as an extra layer.
I've always wrapped all my clothing in tissue paper. It really does work for keeping everything fresh and the clothes dryer sheets I pack. But i use them at home too in all my drawers theyre fabulous for keeping things fresh.
Uh, that’s an amazing idea IF you don’t mind the fact that there are a multitude of chemicals in the dryer sheets. I’d never use them. Scented candles & perfumes are similar, loaded w/ chemicals and they all damage the immune system. I follow scientist Hulda Clark - she’s amazing, and has 3 or 4 huge books out that go into extensive detail on what happens AFTER the immune system is damaged w/ chemicals , incl. Benzene.
The trouble with vacuum packing clothes. Is that it’s likely you won’t have a vacuum to repack your worn clothes to come home. Meaning if you used it to fit more things into your bag, you’ll have less room returning.
There's this kind of packaging that you need to roll, so all air be forced out before you sealed it. No need vaccum machine, just a bit of human power, esp. when we use larger sizes 😅 It worked well for me though..
I have a bag that’s the size of a carryon, but it’s a backpack. It has compression straps on the outside, so you can tighten it up after you’ve packed it! Works great!
Put all liquids 3 ounces or less in a ziplock bag . Also put passports , tickets , and other important papers in a seperate ziplock bag in case liquids leak or in case of rain .
I go to the Philippines several times a year, basically spend half my time there. I bring coffee from the US every time. No problems. Actually it's nice because the bags of coffee I have are equiped with one-way air valves and at cruising altitude most of the air has escaped. Once we have landed, the bags of coffee are vacuum sealed bricks basically haha. Keeps them fresher longer imo
2. several airlines explicitly forbid putting lithium batteries into checked baggage, it is only allowed in carry on despite what is described here. It is easier to detect faulty batteries in the cabin and deal with them.
I once got stopped at the airport security check because I had one of those bluetooth trackers inside my carry-on, that apparently are not TSA compliant. Had no clue about it! I now bought a TSA compliant tracker, GEGO, works pretty well.
NO LITHIUM NO! We are not allowed to pack lithium ion batteries into our checked luggage. We are only allowed to take in our carry on. The reason being that checked baggage in the hold could have the lithium batteries start a fire and no one would be the wiser until it is far too late. It may not be ideal to have that lithium ion battery fire take place in the cabin instead, where there are special bags for containing such an event. If you follow this particular advice of the video, you will be putting yourself and all of the other passengers at risk.
Well said Josh Anderson. I don’t understand why this video recommends what the airlines prohibit to do in regard to lithium batteries. They must be put in the carry on bags and not in checked bags.
Once when I arrived at the Amsterdam airport from South America, a sniffer dog started checking us ( may be for narcotics). When the German Shepherd came to me he 'sniffed' that I was an environmentalist and an ardent dog-lover. He started rolling over as if he had met a long lost friend. Finally, I had to pet and caress him, to the embarrassment of the Dutch security staff.
I brought back coffee n cookies from holland to america and my expensive luggage was ruined by the time i got it back, A Day after i was home. Ill nvr bring back food again. Wasnt worth losing my luggage. Looked like my luggage fell out of the plane, it was so bad. All the wheels broken, the metal logo on front half hanging off, lock missing and all the deco on the front some how half scrapped off. And i had to file for missing luggage n wait to recieve it at my home the next day.
My friend and I had our bags pulled and searched because we both had 6 bags each of 100% Kona coffee from the Big Island! My friend sent us home with high end coffee for gifts for family and friends.. I thought for sure they were gonna ask us about all our fishing gear because we flew there for an Ulua fishing tournament and they wanted to inspect gear that showed up on the xray scanner. They even called for backup while they questioned us about the dozen foil coffee packages that showed up as square black blobs that they thought was contraband! We almost missed our flight because the search took so long! I guess the Big Island isn't only known for awesome Kona coffee!😁🤙🏽
My carry-on rucksack contains everything I actually need for my holiday. That means binoculars, camera, passport, purse (in the British usage) with currency and credit/debit cards, phone, medication, notebook and pen, booking confirmation and itinerary, sunglasses, sunscreen, toothbrush, sun and rainhats, and of course boarding pass. Plus one set of clean underwear. I've never had my hold baggage delayed or apparently opened. It has nothing but clothes and indoor shoes in it.
Not really either. I bring coffee from Colombia to the US all the time. No problem. No additional security checks on either checked or carry on luggage. This video is not exactly bright.
Never bring bottles of liquid, not even face cream in your carry bag, they will ask you to throw it no matter how expensive it is! Put it in the big luggage.
I was wondering how to pack my trimmer with its combs and all...after watching your video i got idea of packing it in a sunglasses box...👍 thanks for indirect help
5 years ago I took a couple 3 pounds bags of coffee in my suitcase. Didn't have a problem. When I got home a friend sometimes smugglers pack drugs in coffee. Wow! On the trip back, without coffee, they did go through my luggage. They messed everything up. I found a note from TSA.😳
They actually tell you not to pack lithium batteries in your checked baggage, rather keep them in your carry on. Funny how they talk about laptops, which have lithium batteries and then say you can't pack toothbrushes in your carry on.

I am a life traveler but there were still a few points that I could learn here good info.
You can bring an electric toothbrush on a plane in your carry-on bag. It's not something the TSA worries about. The TSA is more worried about your toothpaste than your toothbrush which should be limited to 3.4 ounces! In fact, the best place to pack electric toothbrushes is in carry-on bags for three reasons. Put all your electronics on your carry-on.
Always cracks me up when these videos give tip number 1. Great for getting there, but what about getting all that stuff in the bag on your way home? Are you supposed to pack the vacuum with all the space you saved? Stoopid
lithium batteries are normally an issue in checked luggage, not carry-ons*. Also airlines allow for 1 carry-on and 1 personal item (purse, or other). I have never heard anyone ask them to put a personal item IN the carry-on, but I wouldn't be surprised if an officer did at some point...
I had my phillips norelco electric tooth brush in my backpack passing through 4 screenings in 3 different countries including US and it was not an issue what so ever at any of those destinations. I even had 18650 batteries for my vape gear and only once was I detained because I carried too many pairs lol
Tip for travelers : If you have prescription medication , always pack it in carryon not checked luggage . If your suitcase gets lost you wont have your medicine .Keep medicine in original prescription bottles with your name on it .
I now live in a country where my name is not on any medication. So weird. In the Netherlands the name of the doctor is on it, your name and address, the date and the dosage. Now I have medications of my whole family and have no idea whose what was and when it was prescribed. I don't bring my original packages though. That would take up so much space. Never had a problem. But I hardly ever fly.
After my checked in bag was lost at the beginning of business travel (and left with no clothes for the next days!) I made it a habit to bring 1 pair of pants, 1 shirt, underwear and socks in my carryon bag... just in case! :-D

Absolutely true. Laptop in my backpack, charger in my checked luggage. It had been in sleep mode and died so I could not power it up. Thanks to the stickers on my laptop they let it go. (USAFSOC, Law Enforcement, SWAT)
@@margareth1504 Sure, but I think it was about the type of vacuum bags that you can hold 2 giant chunky winter coats or a king size duvet - not the smallish ones you are describing.
A long time ago, when I picked up my duffel-bag in the airport terminal, on one side it looked like it was dropped in a water puddle. When I got to the quarters, I opened it up and found my little jug of laundry soap had cracked open. I spent a while down the hall, running my clothes through the washing machine!
Coffee has been the reason to search my luggage four times. Today they searched my luggage because I had two pouches of chai tea spices. I think some thing about the loose powder and granules is a flag for possible explosives. Next time. I will just carry them in a shopping bag so they’re easy to inspect.
We take our own coffee to and from Bali every time (approx twice a year) We always declare it and have never had an issue. I love the large IKEA ziplock bags for storing shoes.
It’s not a big deal if you put coffee in your luggage. I always put 4 bags of coffee beans in my checked-in luggage because my aunt loves coffee from Canada (she lives in the US). TSA usually opens 2 out of the 4 bags to make sure it is coffee, then vacuum seals it again, then you’re on your way. It didn’t delay me or anything.
I've never had an issue with bringing coffee back. However, I pack it in a carryon bag in a way that makes it easy for staff to pull it out for secondary inspection. FYI, the mylar packaging is also a bit problematic for screening.
Hmmmm, I have been buying coffee from every country I have travelling to, and packed them in my checked luggage, never had any problems. Maybe this applies to the country you are in.
do not use any decorative pillows or bed covers because it is not being washed routinely, only when it has stains, never use glasses or coffee maker, it is washed using the same sponge use to scrub toilets☺️
This Coffee issue seems little controversial. I fully agree that its used for masking smell of some of the contraband items. However small sealed packets ( 2 gm sachets) or small 25-50 gms sealed bottles atleast have never posed any problems to me ( more than 40 international trips), as always carry my coffee with me, with water kettle and milk powder. The only problem once I faced was spillage. My son handed me over an opened bottle instead of a sealed one. It was a silly mistake from my side. Since then I keep this bottle or small sachets inside a zip lock bag. No accidents since then. 😅
Oh, wow! TSA has cracked down on Lithium batteries packed in checked bags. Electric toothbrushes, electric razors, etc. They want them removed with the passenger moving them to carry-on. That can force someone to be removed from and perhaps miss the flight to take care of it. The reason is simply that flight attendants now have what they need to react to and take care of a Li battery in a carry-on if it starts to catch fire. Not much anybody can do when it’s packed in a checked bag in the hold.
I doubt if the author actually tried this WAX idea. The bags will be so messy from the wax and dirt buildup after going through the baggage conveyer system you’d throw it away after the trip. Better to buy and use a water repellent spray or buy a weatherproof piece of luggage, which most are.
I'm not sure #2 makes sense. Devices with lithium batteries and even spare lithium batteries up to a certain capacity should be placed in carry ons. Yes security might scrutinise certain items more such as a portable car jump starter but if it's protected from use or in its package it's fine. Lithium battery devices should be accessable during flight in case of problems, not stored in a cargo hold which although there is a fire extinguishing and suppression system, any such problems would result in a diversion to the nearest suitable airport. So these things should be where they can be accessed and taken care of immediately and cabin crews are trained to deal with this.
Absolutely right! These tips are awful. NEVER check in an item with a lithium battery. And who wraps anything in foil? Bundle wrapping is a pain - you have to unpack everything to get at one thing! And not a mention of cubes
Hopefully upon returning you can vacuum the bags air tight again. Imagine asking concierge / cleaning staff for the vacuum to repack your items to go home. 🧐
Another tip: Better wear easy to take off rubber shoes when travelling internationally.Sandals will be better to avoid the security telling you to take off your shoes.
Jigsaw puzzles apparently look weird. I had one in checked baggage. When I arrived in Australia my home country, I really got the 3rd degree. Opened my bag and they worked out it was the jigsaw. Apparently it looked like food which is a big no no to bring in unless sealed.
Tsa officer for the better part of the last decade here... Almost all of this is completely BS in the USA at least. My favorite thing was the impenetrable tin foil...lol
I had a sandwich in aluminum foil and coffee in my carryon, and they never said anything to me. TSA told me I could carry a lithium battery in my carryon (phone charger) but NOT in a checked bag. This video is incorrect.
You suggested packing electric toothbrush in checked bag rather than carry on in case it has a lithium battery. Lithium can NOT be packed in checked luggage, but can go in carry on.

Vacuum bags are a mistake unless you can source a vacuum cleaner for the return journey - unless you leave stuff behind.
You know, with a zip lock bag about 20x30cm ish, you just fill it and then sit on it to expel the air, then seal it up before standing up again.

I do both folding and rolling actually. You can fold them neatly in a way that they won't get wrinkle much then roll'em. Tried and tested
Oh that’s what I do. Every time I land I always run the the store and go on a shopping spree
I'm watching these brightside videos because I've not been on a plane since I was 6 😢😢
I've been 2 times traveling. I'm also traveling this month✈
me to
@@lmaooololl same I’m going out on the 25
Oh, wow! TSA has cracked down on Lithium batteries packed in checked bags. Electric toothbrushes, electric razors, etc. They want them removed with the passenger moving them to carry-on. That can force someone to be removed from and perhaps miss the flight to take care of it.
The reason is simply that flight attendants now have what they need to react to and take care of a Li battery in a carry-on if it starts to catch fire. Not much anybody can do when it’s packed in a checked bag in the hold.
Well, in Bali security officers would double check ur coffee pack. 😉
I hope whoever reads this to have a nice day or night.
Thx you do aswell
Same to u
Thank you and to you also..
Best pack advice EVER is:
*Decide what you wish to take in a pile THEN HALVE IT you won't ever need half of what you think you'll need.*
so true.
@verjon and if 4 shirts, bring 2........
@verjon andI was joking. if you are a big man bring those 3XL cause hard to find big size in most areas here. I never wear Socks.
Half the things, twice the money
How about chocolates or other foods.. it is allowed for handcarry??
Rolling, definitely rolling whether in a backpack or suitcase.
Love you bright side.
I like the candle 🕯 waxing idea 💡 to protect your luggage 🧳 from rain 🌧 😀
I doubt if the author actually tried this WAX idea. The bags will be so messy from the wax and dirt buildup after going through the baggage conveyer system you’d throw it away after the trip. Better to buy and use a water repellent spray or buy a weatherproof piece of luggage, which most are.
The belly bag one is partially true. Some airlines make you put them in your carry on bag
We always bring coffee home with us when we return from SE Asia, and yes, we usually get extra scrutiny. Still, it's worth the hassle.
I'm not sure #2 makes sense. Devices with lithium batteries and even spare lithium batteries up to a certain capacity should be placed in carry ons. Yes security might scrutinise certain items more such as a portable car jump starter but if it's protected from use or in its package it's fine. Lithium battery devices should be accessable during flight in case of problems, not stored in a cargo hold which although there is a fire extinguishing and suppression system, any such problems would result in a diversion to the nearest suitable airport. So these things should be where they can be accessed and taken care of immediately and cabin crews are trained to deal with this.
Absolutely right! These tips are awful. NEVER check in an item with a lithium battery. And who wraps anything in foil? Bundle wrapping is a pain - you have to unpack everything to get at one thing! And not a mention of cubes
i need to learn how to bundle fold in #15. that looks cool.
Hopefully upon returning you can vacuum the bags air tight again. Imagine asking concierge / cleaning staff for the vacuum to repack your items to go home. 🧐
0:02 ” going somewhere ?”
Me: yes, to school
How
😷
Definitely Writing it down in my ‘airport tips notebook!’
I found out the Bright Side Algorithm
Put videos about the air
Rolling everything conserves the space in suitcases or knapsacks ❤
I hope we will be able use these tips soon
Another tip: Better wear easy to take off rubber shoes when travelling internationally.Sandals will be better to avoid the security telling you to take off your shoes.
The airport security officer looks scary af ! -.-
Nice video, thanks for sharing.
Potentially dangerous items aluminum foil, unusually shaped items like honey, sausage and cheese. Most dangerous of all coffee.
@satyam pandey hi can we friend❤️👍🏻❤️
@@Petloverofw ok
I am a fan ! So cool video !
Jigsaw puzzles apparently look weird. I had one in checked baggage. When I arrived in Australia my home country, I really got the 3rd degree. Opened my bag and they worked out it was the jigsaw. Apparently it looked like food which is a big no no to bring in unless sealed.
I love bringing home from Japan.
I’m going to Arizona soon and I am excited to go!
INFORMATIVE AND HELPFUL
Tsa officer for the better part of the last decade here... Almost all of this is completely BS in the USA at least. My favorite thing was the impenetrable tin foil...lol
I had a sandwich in aluminum foil and coffee in my carryon, and they never said anything to me. TSA told me I could carry a lithium battery in my carryon (phone charger) but NOT in a checked bag. This video is incorrect.
Bruh, this was made by a sneaky Russian company just to squeeze money off the Algorithm
You suggested packing electric toothbrush in checked bag rather than carry on in case it has a lithium battery. Lithium can NOT be packed in checked luggage, but can go in carry on.
THAT'S TRUE.
We always bring back coffee...no problem at all, just be aware about quantity....as the rest!
Those small candles that come in a metal tin with a lid: always gets me hand searched. Put it in your checked bag
Please make more traveling tips
Innit
Cool,amazing,fantastic etc video
I'm early... But not that early!! But at least I'm here!!! BTW love your videos!!! ♥️♥️💖💖😁
Thank you do you need to charge everything??
