📣 With the new 0+3 quarantine arrangements announced, many of you may already be planning your next trip! Packing is an essential part of travelling and we’re here to help you find your Mr Right when it comes to travel backpacks.

Here're 4 guiding questions to ask yourself to find the perfect pack!

Q1. How long is the trip? What am I bringing with me?

This question helps you narrow down your bag choices according to the size and space you need. If you’re a minimalist traveller, going for a 7 days or less trip, a large backpack or weekender bag that comes with 30 litres of compartment space can suffice. This will allow you to hand carry the bag so you won’t have to wait for luggage at arrival hall.🛄

The festive holidays are a great time to travel farther, and for longer. A large suitcase combined with a hand carry bag would be ideal. A versatile daypack as a hand carry allows easy access to essential items like passports and mobile phones.

Have your packing list ready before you physically start packing, as this will give you a clearer picture of the bags you’ll need.

Q2. What type of trip is it?

If you’re going to do a lot of walking, a travel bag that has shoulder pads and back support will make your journey a lot more comfortable.

If you enjoy a road trip, and large suitcases can be stored in the car, a lite belt bag on the go will keep your essentials in reach anytime.🤳🏽

If it's a trip to the wild, a backpack with a sternum strap is the most suitable, as it provides stability and free your hands for adventure.

Personal items like phones and sunglasses can be stored in a belt bag or sling, so you can take them out whenever you need.

Q3. What is my packing style?

When it comes to an overnight trip, it’s natural that we have to carry many smaller necessities, such as phone charger, adapter, pen, airpods, umbrella, socks, etc. Travel bags without compartments or pockets will make it difficult to keep these smaller items in place. Choose a bag that comes with various compartments so you can save time from digging through a pile of clothes for a charging cable.

Besides, having secure zipper pockets within the bag can keep important belongings such as backup cash and passports safe.🔒

Bring a gear bag with you to keep the toiletries organized.

Q4. What style do I like?

What you carry is also part of your overall look. Pick the right designs and materials that match your style. Classic colours such as black are easy to mix and match and never go out of style. Colourful and trendy bags can spice things up and make them easy to identify from the overhead luggage rack.😉
