Y’all I gotta pin this comment cause I’m getting so many comments about my toiletries that I have to address. I literally have packed this way for 2 years straight. I travel quite a bit for work and just personal and never even thought about my toiletries situation. I literally turned off this camera and the intro to my Miami/cruise starts 😂 so in that vlog you see me with the luggage lol…. 1) I don’t have TSA precheck or clear 2) I don’t take items out my suitcase when going through TSA other than my iPad which is in my backpack 3) I’ve travel to 8 different cities (Cabo, Mexico included) in the last 10 months this exact same way 4) I only made this video because people comment and DM and ask me all the time how I pack. If you don’t feel comfortable with anything I mentioned please feel free to only travel with checked luggage. I just wanted to show how I pack to answer questions. I must get the best TSA agents ever in all the cities I visit cause y’all making it seem like they should be trashing my toiletries 😂

I travel quite a bit for work (2-4 times a month) and I always recommend going to Kohl’s for suitcases. They have the high end suitcase brands and they’re usually marked 50-60% off every weekend (they deliver for free I believe and sometimes Kohl’s has an additional 20% off coupon)! I paid only $50 for my current carryon but the MSRP is about $150. Ross/TJ Maxx also has good suitcases in the $30-50 range as well.

I’m going on a cruise to Alaska and am taking a carry on on the plane. I usually overpack and so now I am hella anxious that I’m going to forget something 😂! Also, I’m a fluffy girl so big girl clothes take up a lot of room! Imma make it work though. Thanks for this video!

I travel quite a bit internationally & have been gone up to 9 days with just a carryon. Island trips are a back pack carry on. It’s easier & less frustrating.

I’m so glad I saw this! Thank you for the amazing tips!

Great tips, thank you. Actually looking at a cruise before the end of the year.

Thank you!! Prepping for a 2 week cruise - carry-on/personal bag only. You are GOALS

Awesome video! Thank you! I was looking up crochet styles for a cruise and that's how I start following you and watching your KZfaq channel! I'm going on my first cruise in October so this video was so helpful!!

Thank you! Planning a sister trip and we're trying to skip the checked bags, so this is perfect timing.

Yes girl my last bag was checked back in 2009! Glad to see others doing the same!

I'm trying to minimize down to a carryon. It is a work in progress.

Me too! I never check luggage on flights. Those twirly cases are great.

Thank you for the tips!! I’m going on a cruise in December goal is a carry on an a back pack only. I’ve gone on two other 7 day cruises and feel like I overpacked and didn’t wear everything. Totally agree planning outfits really helps with not overpacking.

You can do that for a short trip!! But I feel 7 days or more and multiple outfits would be hard to do a carry on!!

Thank you for this video because I truly need this information.

Have a great time on your trip Lia! Much love from Dublin Ireland

Great tips! Thank you!

Excellent video. I also only use my carryon. I'm cheap and not paying extra fees. Plus I've been getting everything I need in my old Samsonite suitcase. Yep, I'm gonna use it til the wheels fall off. I like to travel light . I do need that Backpack and mirror though.

Thank you for this video! I learned several things, I didn't know!

Great tips! Thanks dear. I'll try to implement some of them on my next trip ❤️🇬🇭🇬🇧

Excellent video! Hope you have a great cruise!

Thank you so much for this!!! I have my solo coming up in this October for my cruise

Great tips! I enjoyed this video. Thank you so much for recording. 🙌🏽 I’m going to pack this way for my next trip.

Thanks for this. I'm ready for my upcoming trip with a carry on and back pack! I had enough room for extra clothes and shoes. I don't wear much makeup so I could fit more shoes instead of a makeup kit. I just saw you page on Amazon and you have the same hair I am wearing on my trip.

Love this video and your personality!

I love that travel backpack 🖤

Great tips! Thanks for sharing.

You’re so pretty this is how I pack. I also have a person item purse that is a little large with clothes. I’m the packing queen. Everyone talks about me then they end up leaving luggage taking forever to get their stuff together not me. I use small bag etc to separate things. For long trips I do south west for the 2 free 50lb check bags but even then I only take 1 with duffel bag 🥰

Love this!! 🖤

Great video! I would love more info about outfit planning

Before I started doing carry on only I remember I checked a larger bag for a cruise I went on and didn’t wear or use half the crap I took. I said never again 😂

Very informative video!! Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️

Great advice!

Great video. Thanks for sharing!

Great tips!

Just received that backpack from target! Love it. Thank you for sharing it. Using it wednesday.. vacation!!!

Lady you're liable to get a marriage proposal getting off the plane with that rocking hair style.

I didn't know those small scissors were an option. I thought I just got away with it that one time lol. I've just gotten down to one carry on and one checked bag😩 I'm gonna try my next trip to follow your guidelines 😄 Also, I always wash before I come home. I feel like that's one less thing to do when I get home😉

Great video Lia!! Sidenote when you first showed it I didn't think it was a tripod 😂😂😆🙈😲

As far as international travel, I have purchased items to bring back duty free at the airport. That way, TSA & airline allows you to carry that extra bag in hand with no issues.

That's a good video seen others but I wanted from Our perspective, I must say I'm getting there I haven't gotten to a small carrying on yet but have scale down from a hugh suitcase like I'm Not coming back Home Ever😂 to a medium suitcase looking at yours I'm gonna get there🤔😁 EVENTUALLY!

🇬🇧 🙋🏾‍♀️ This will come in handy for my long haul trip to tobago 🇹🇹 next year. I always pack too much 🙈

I do the same when we cruise. It makes everything easier.

Great video!❤️

Omg…I feel so dumb, I had no idea you could do that with the Apple Watch and picture taking…thankyou🥰

I purchased that this past May in Pink.

You were my inspiration, I did a recent trip to Key West with just a carryon. I need to get the small scissors 😊

Same. I refuse to check bags unless my kids are with me and we luckily can drive to the port with them and avoid the bag check

Thanks, this is helpful. How about if your trip/cruise is for 2 weeks? I'm cruising for 1 week and will be on another vacation for a second week. How much clothing would you back for and do you think it would fit in a carry on? By the way, I love your videos! Very informative.

I bought it in black, it was pricey but well worth it IMO. Thanks for the new tips. I’m always looking for good travel backpacks and I love all the compartments the one you showed has.

Thanks for sharing!

Good video. Thank you

I plan my outfits and still bring too many! I am going on a 7 day Alaska cruise and in my mind I’m carrying on AND checking a big af bag too 🤷🏾‍♀️💆🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

It’s a tripod! Hahaha😅😂😊

Hi! Love your video ! What’s the brand backpack ? Thanks

Thank you for the video! My husband and I are going on our first cruise together and he thinks I’m crazy for saying I’m doing carry on only.😂

I've only brought a carry-on for like a weekend trip or some work trips. Never brought a carry-on when I've cruised though. I typically like 5-7 day cruises and since I wear 2 outfits a day, there's no way I could bring all of that in a carry-on.😉

I am so glad I found you! Going on a European river cruise this summer, and I don’t want to check bags. Will I be allowed to take more than one clear bag of liquids under 3 oz?

Oh girl, Canada does not play with the liquids. You should see the tiny bag they give us 😩 everything has to fit in their (airport security provided) plastic ziplock bag. It’s only a 1L bag total (33 oz for y’all), so we have to be super careful. I still pack carry on tho

Thanks 👏👏

Hi. I didn't see any link for the makeup bag. That's pretty neat. Do you have a link or information where to purchase?

Never travel out country but Wish i could pack for carry on only we go every summer to Jersey shore for a month but we on break past year again my grandparents moving into new house here in Arizona so hope next summer i always over pack laundromat r longer close down so hopefully they hook up the new washer for next year, what ur thought for next trip? A week worth? Hut we use to take southwest so we dan bring extra bags

Wowwww it’s been a minute since I’ve flown/needed to check a bag as well - they’re really trippin over the extender zipper being open now? 😳🤯 This video is extra timely then, cuz I too plan to be in the wind in the very near future. With a carry on only 😙

I never check bags either. I can't chance my bags being lost.

It’s the tripod for me 😂😂😂

Thank you for the video!!! Do you pack heels the same way you pack sneakers and flip flops?

🇬🇧🙋🏾‍♀️Great ideas 📝👩🏾‍🎓👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Great video. So is your luggage the 20 inch or 24 inch?

Do you find will all the rolling of clothes you have iron your clothes more when you get to your destination? I can't stand ironing and don't have time to iron on my trips...

Oooh chile do i need this i ALWAYS have 2 luggages that huge 1 and the next size down NOT the carry-on plus a shoe bag, carry on backpack AND i stuff things in my child's luggage. So help me please bc i just cant see JUST a carry on IN MY CASE. I fly Southwest so ill settle for just ONE luggage and my backpack

I don't think I could get away with 3 quart sized liquid bags at JFK in New York. I wish I could lol.

Okay. I am only 2:20 into watching this video, but I have to comment here. I am leaving in one month for a 4 night cruise, out of Miami, FL with a one night pre-cruise stay in Miami, and I am flying with American Airlines! I usually fly Delta, too. Is this a coincidence, or what!!?

I always travel with only a carry on and people always think I'm insane.

I’m traveling next week using a carryon for the first time. So do you place the backpack bag under the seat? I think I’m going to get that if you do.

I could never! 😩 My last cruise was a 7 day and I took a 29 inch and 25 inch plus a book bag. I said NEVER again. My goal for next one is just my 29 inch. I seriously don’t think I could do this.

I've never done carry on because it just seemed impossible. Until my trip today. Thanks for the video because I stole everything (down to the toiletries 😂) and zipped through the airport. Thanks, boo!

Your edge control gel technically is not a liquid it’s a solid

I love that belt. So stylish and versatile. Do you remember where you got it?

Ok. I wish I could do this and I’m gonna try! But I see they’re allowing you more than one quart size bag for your toiletries. I always thought it was only one quart sized bag allowed on the plane.

Do you have Precheck or Clear? Just wondering how you have all those liquids/creams in multiple bags? Plus a full size sunscreen?

So you have not had any issues with having more than one liquid bag in your luggage? I have always tried to keep it to one but seeing your packing it looks like it's not an issue as long as it is in clear toiletry bags and follows size guidelines.

I envy you! Im such an overpacker because im plus sized so trying to find clothes when I travel can be tricky! TSA doesn't give you a hard time about having liquids in different locations? Do you have TSA precheck? Thanks for all of the tips.

My health won’t always allow me to carry on. This trip I will be doing a carry on.

Sorry - can you please confirm the size? You say 24” in the video but the link is for a 21”. Thanks.

So...you carry 15+ travel-size liquid items in several different bags, not the one 3-1-1 bag that TSA recomments. Is the sunscreen the TSA approved size? It looks like it's larger than 3.4 oz. I would be afraid of getting caught and having TSA toss out most of those items. You packing method would be great except for that. Do you have TSA Pre-check? Great video. Thanks for sharing!

What is going on with the background in this blog?

I thought we are only allowed one clear quart bag of creams and liquids for TSA. But you packed three. Please explain! ❤️

i always take my $10 jcp dress on trips, just in case. i hate dresses.

Im looking for a carry on luggage that is airline approved for a cruise. I know you said you've packed carry on for yrs but have you used the same bag and would you recommend?

How do you get away with more than one liquids bag?

How do you get thru TSA with 3 quart bags. They only allow one 3-1-1 bag. Maybe I didn’t pay attention and you’re checking that luggage.

How are u getting 3 liquids bags thru TSA? They consider Toothpaste a liquid.

Full size sunscreen & liquid foundation😮 Wow, good for you but Hartsfield Atl will remove & toss.

So you can have multiple clearbags for liquid? Everything I have read just says one bag 🤔

Good luck. Delta max size is 22" X 14" x 9". This is the FAA standard which most airlines adhere to. Some, particularly international airlines, also limit the weight of a carry on to 15 or 17 pounds! I'm guessing that you have the 21" size and just mis-spoke on the video.

I thought you could only have one liquids bag

Did I miss something?? What about ur hair products? I have one small pouch just for that and I got short natural hair. U could de-clutter ur makeup some. I could get ur makeup pouch down to a half a ziploc bag. For real and u wouldn’t miss all those eye and blush pallets that U carry. I’m a minimalist packer too.

4-5 days is easy to do. It’s 7-10 days that’s HARD to do w/a carry on only!
