Nanatravel Posted April 6, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Calgon has a great one! calgon1@yahoo.com is his email address. He responded to me very quickly. Just let him know your itinerary, as he has several lists: Warm weather, Alaska, Kids, etc. The list is a riot. It gives you a good idea of what to pack and how. Most of us however, don't take nearly as much as he mentions. Best piece of advise, as long as you are traveling with a spouse or partner, put one outfit for each dress occasion into the other person's luggage: swimsuit, shorts & top, Slacks & shirt, dress & sport jacket, etc. This way if luggage is delayed or lost, you will still have some of your own clothes to wear until the piece is returned. Don't forget the shoes, undies and accessories too. I once had 3 of 4 pieces of luggage arrive, including my slacks outfit for the first dinner. However, I didn't have any shoes. I would have looked really odd wearing white sneakers! I don't travel with a pocketbook anymore either. I use a change purse and make-up size zipper bag kept in my tote bag. It makes things a lot easier especially when going through airport security. Always put jewelry and medication and camera in your carry-on, never check those items.

raudacruise Posted April 6, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 6, 2004 An oldy but goody, Nancy Miller's packing spreadsheet can be found at: Packing Tips On is in HTML and the other is in Excell spreadsheet format. There is also a pointer to TP's excellent tip calculator and some other fun stuff. George & MaryBeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNLROSE Posted April 6, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 6, 2004 The best packing advice I ever received & can pass along that REALLY WORKS is-----DRY CLEANING BAGS!!! We pack EVERYTHING on hangars (the good stuff) in bags in a hard case garment bag & have NEVER had a wrinkle!!! Never had to use wrinkle releaser either! The not-so-good stuff, we pack folded nicely & roll nicely & everything just works perfectly! I have taken an iron on the last 5 cruiss & never, I mean NEVER used it once!!! Swear!!!
