The Carry-On Only Summer: Why Travelers Are Packing Less and Dressing Smarter

As millions of people make their summer travel plans, they have many different destinations in mind. One thing that many of them have in common, however, is that they are on board with packing less and dressing smarter. Travelers are looking for ways to stick with a carry-on only, and in order to do that, they are packing less and getting more out of the items they decide to take along.

“This is the time to dress smarter while on vacation,” said Valerie Perez, founder of Wrap Up by VP, offering mindfully crafted resort spa and leisurewear. “That’s where we come in. Our line of luxurious apparel is helping people pack less and travel better.”

Travelers are on a mission with the new trend in packing less, so they can travel better. Those who overpack know all too well the toll it can take on one’s vacation. Those who avoid over-packing find that their travel experience is smoother, less chaotic, and doesn’t cause them as much stress. That’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the reasons why people are choosing to pack lighter as they travel this summer.

Here are some additional reasons why travelers are packing less and dressing smarter:

• Save time. Checking luggage takes time, because once the plane lands, it’s a race to the luggage collection area, where people will stand and wait for a while to get their items. This slows people down, and if the airline is busy, it can take a while before they start putting the luggage on the carrousel. 
• Prevent lost luggage. Each year, many people end up with lost luggage, for whatever reason. This is something that is not only costly, due to the value of items lost, but it can really put a damper on the trip when people don’t have their belongings. Taking only a carry-on will help to prevent this from happening.
• Faster navigation. Having only a carry-on will help travelers navigate quicker through the airport. Carry-on bags typically have wheels and are easier to maneuver throughout the airport, helping people to get through quicker and with less frustration.
• Less stress. Reducing the chaos and stress that often takes place with travel in busy places is a worthwhile goal. Having less stress is going to help people enjoy their trip more. Sticking with having only a carry-on bag helps keep the stress down.
• Avoid checked bag fees. Most airlines charge checked bag fees, and they are not small. Checking bags on a round-trip flight can really add to the cost of travel. By sticking to a carry-on bag, travelers can save a lot of money.

“Traveling lighter is going to help with enjoying the vacation more,” added Perez. “You want to love the trip, not be bogged down with dragging along extra items and bags. We help keep it simple, sophisticated, and help you love traveling even more!”
