The key to a well-sorted suitcase is keeping things separated and protected. Always pack a few plastic or reusable zip bags* (like freezer bags or small dry bags). These lightweight containers are incredibly versatile, serving multiple purposes far beyond simple storage.
They are essential for corralling various items: keeping liquids contained in case of a spill, separating dirty laundry or a wet swimming costume from clean clothes, and preventing the dreaded ‘charger spaghetti’ by grouping electronics and cables together. They are a simple, inexpensive way to keep the chaos out of your carry-on or checked luggage.
