Just Practice Packed for My Upcoming Trip

United States
September 26, 2026 4:51pm CST
For some reason I don’t think I want to check a bag on my upcoming international trip So I just packed to an extreme minimum. Barely anything. 3 shirts, 2 pair of pants. Minuscule toiletries. Two bathing suits. Pajamas, undies, socks. It wouldn’t fit in my tiny under-the-seat roller bag but it does all fit in my smallest carry-on bag. So do I carry everything with me or check a bag? And can I lift the 20 pounds over my head into the overhead bin? I’m going to try that in a minute.

I don’t think I’m checking a bag on my flight to Norfolk. I’d rather just deal with a carry on and my purse.

When traveling, I always say whatever makes things easier on you. When I was returning to the US my cat Sid and his cat carrier had to be put under the seat in front of me

That's impressive packing honestly, not everyone can fit a whole trip into one small bag. If you can lift it okay just carry it on, saves so much time at the airport. Good luck with the overhead bin test lol.
