How to Pack a Carry-On for 7 Days
The smartest packing starts before the suitcase opens. Choose versatile clothing, divide by function, and keep essentials reachable.
1. Build around outfits
Pack pieces that mix cleanly across business, leisure, and transit moments. Neutral layers make the whole kit more flexible.
2. Use organizers intentionally
Separate apparel, tech, toiletries, and travel documents so each item has a home.
3. Keep the airport layer accessible
Passport, wallet, charger, earbuds, and comfort essentials should be reachable without unpacking the bag.
