So, a few years ago, before I was a travel expert, I got a lovely warning "note" from the TSA saying that I would be given a "warning" about carrying dangerous liquids in my suitcase.

I had packed a travel-size "Static Guard" in my suitcase. 

Yup, go ahead and fingerprint me...slap on the cuffs!! 

They told me they seized the item and searched thoroughly through my luggage. WHAT?

And along with that note was a messy suitcase when I arrived at my destination!

Super embarassing as I wasn't really clear on the liquid rules about what I could bring and what I couldn't. (Now I bring the travel size Downy wrinkle release!)

So, I want you to watch this video as I am having lots of clients who are anxious about packing liquids in their carry on luggage.  

After 9/11, flying became very strict (as I'm sure you already know).

So this TSA 3-1-1 rule is strictly followed and they WILL make you throw out excess items or items that don't meet the requirements....

So, I have another "stress-saving" tip I really wanted to share with you so that you don't forget something that needs to be packed "last minute" ever again!

Lots of times, we need to pack items such as razors, toothbrushes, makeup, etc. RIGHT before we leave for the airport so we can use them first.  

If you're like me, you've forgotten to pack an important item or 2 on more than one occasion!

So, here is what I do the night BEFORE I travel to make sure I don't forget something!  

(I'm not saying you won't forget ANYTHING else, but this will cut down your chances...at least in the bathroom!)

This tip also works when you are leaving the resort to come home.  (And I highly recommend packing at the resort the morning before you leave...then finalize at night!)

Here's to less stress!
