Traveling light in the winter often sounds like a mission impossible because we have so many warm and bulky clothes to pack. If you’re struggling to fit them all in a tiny suitcase, this brief guide will help you get it done and keep your baggage fees low this winter.
Make a List
Instead of packing clothes at random, make a list of things you want to take. By doing so, you’ll be able to plan your outfits in advance and avoid packing things that you don’t really need.
Bulky Clothes
The trickiest thing about traveling in the winter is finding room for bulky clothes in your suitcase, but you can save some space by wearing your heaviest clothes on the plane.
Don’t Double Pack
There’s really no need to double-pack some of your heaviest winter items, such as boots and jackets. Just pick a pair that goes well with all your outfits and there will be no need to pack another.
Re-Wearing Your Clothes
Re-wearing your clothes is also an option since it’s unlikely they’ll get dirty in a single day. You can also do your laundry along the way, just keep in mind to pack quick-drying clothes.
Strategic Packing
The way you pack can help you save up space all year long. Consider rolling your clothes and investing in packing cubes to maximize luggage space.
