Gone are the days when travelers use to bring trunks or luggage full of clothing. Even those who are traveling long-term such as 6 months at a time travel light today. With the new airport security laws, it is too time consuming to bring 12 pieces of luggage. Six pieces of luggage or less is the new trend since 2001. Packing light will increase the pleasure of your journey and allow you to simplify your traveling experience, focusing more on the business or pleasure at hand and less on the multitudes of luggage it seemed like a good idea to bring.

One of the most important aspects of traveling light is the new constraints of airport security. Airport security guards are less likely to need to search a smaller bag and less likely to lose it once it is in the system. It is cheaper to pack light as well. You can carry your own baggage so do not need to pay or tip others to carry it for you. Also you won’t be charged weight charges through the airport. Most enticingly, a smaller bag eliminates the need to take transportation around your destination.

If your burden is lightened you will be able to walk from one place to another, encouraging a more hands on relationship with the environment you are visiting. The ease of travel is also increased because you needn’t arrive at your transportation hubs as early as other travelers. You don’t have to check your baggage and need only board the craft in question and speed on your way. Most importantly, you needn’t wait for baggage claim when you reach your destination. While all the other passengers wait exhausted and staring at the baggage round, you need only grab your one piece of perfectly packed luggage and stride out the door.

There are several websites that promote the important aspects of light packing such as: what to pack, what to pack it in and how to pack it. They offer advice on all three and can make sure that you’ve packed your bag as efficiently as possible and are well on your way to a fantastic and stress free traveling experience. The web site creator even provides a list of what to pack, even though some items on the list (i.e. Malaria tablets) seem to be designed for a traveler going to specific types of locales.
