Holiday Travel Packing Tips

Packing for a Winter Destination

If you're heading to a winter wonderland, our biggest tip is to pack lots of layers! 

• Essential layers: thermals, sweaters, waterproof jacket.
• Warm accessories: hat, gloves, scarf.
• Protective footwear: waterproof boots.
• Skin care: moisturizer and lip balm

1. Layering is key: When traveling to a cold weather destination, you'll want to pack plenty of layers to stay warm. Start with a base layer of thermal clothing, followed by a mid-layer of fleece or wool, and finish with a waterproof outer layer to protect against snow and wind.

2. Don't forget accessories: Bring items like gloves, hats, scarves, and a good pair of waterproof boots to keep you warm and dry as you explore the winter landscape.

3. Pack for indoor activities: In addition to outdoor gear, don't forget to pack items for indoor activities like cozy sweaters, pajamas, and loungewear for relaxing by the fire or enjoying hot cocoa.

4. Organize your suitcase: Keep all your winter essentials organized in your suitcase so you can easily access them when you need them. Utilize packing cubes or compression bags to save space and keep everything in its place.

Packing for a Beach Destination

Heading somewhere warm and sunny? Make sure to pack:

• Light clothing: shorts, t-shirts, swimwear.
• Sun protection: sunscreen, hat, sunglasses.
• Beach must-haves: towel, flip-flops.

1. Don't forget sunscreen: When packing for a beach vacation, sunscreen is a must-have item. Make sure to pack a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF to protect your skin from the sun. And be sure to put any full-sized sunscreen in your checked baggage.

2. Bring beach essentials: Pack items like a swimsuit, cover-up, flip-flops, and a beach towel so you're prepared for a day of lounging by the water.

3. Pack light, airy clothing: Opt for lightweight and breathable clothing like sundresses, shorts, and t-shirts to stay cool in the heat. Don't forget a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses for added sun protection.

4. Bring a beach bag: Pack a beach bag to carry all your essentials like sunscreen, water, snacks, and a good book or magazine for a relaxing day at the beach.

No matter where your vacation takes you, proper packing is essential for a successful trip. By following these tips, you can ensure you're prepared for a winter wonderland or a sunny beach destination. Remember to plan ahead and pack accordingly so you can make the most of your vacation and enjoy every moment.
