Acing the carry-on begins with the right bag. If you travel a lot, it’s worth it to invest in a duffel or roller bag that will be functional enough for you. Remember, a suitcase with functional wheels or roller bag is much easier to get around and will save you some massive shoulder stress. However, in many full flights, the roller bags will automatically check at the gates, while duffle bags tend to slide through a bit more easily. So, if you don’t want to risk having to check your bag plane-side, opting for a duffel bag can be great to ensure your carry-on actually makes it into the overhead bin.

Once you’ve got the right bag, what you pack makes all the difference. To make your trip hassle-free, stay away from fabrics that wrinkle easily and pack versatile outfits. Since they’re items that layer and can be worn a few different ways, they’ll keep you looking fresh without having to pack your whole wardrobe. Think of staying within one color scheme that makes mixing and matching easier, or dress up your basic outfits with handy accessories.
