I used to be in the “clever ways to cram lots of clothes into a single case” camp. But the downsides of that are that you can’t easily find anything, everything gets wrinkled, and every pack/unpack moment is stressful.
Now I pack 3/4 of a case, max. Now I can easily
find things, fewer wrinkles, and zero stress when arriving somewhere or leaving somewhere. It’s so much better when you prioritize this way.

- JSR_FDED 2y agoSure, but now you’re on a plane and would like to grab something from your bag - headphones or a sweater or an aspirin. Do you need to pull the bag from the overhead bin, balance it on your chair while you unpack the whole bag? Or do you reach into your bag while still in the overhead bin and pull out the item you need?
- pmags 2y agoNot at all -- there's no need to pack every single item into a bundle. For me at least, the "bundle" is basically all the clothing that will be used at my destination. Like any other packing situation, you'd keep a jacket, sweater, headphones, etc. outside of the bundle for easy access en route.
