Packing Light: A One-Bag Travel Checklist

Travelling with one bag saves money, time at the airport and a lot of stress. Here is the checklist that works for a one-week trip.

Clothes

• 3 tops that match everything
• 2 bottoms
• 1 light jacket
• Underwear and socks for 4 days - wash on day 3

Essentials

• Passport and a printed copy
• Phone, charger and a small power bank
• A refillable water bottle

Lay everything out on the bed, then put half of it back.

Bag size rules change between airlines, so check this cabin bag size list before you book.
