Planning on doing any holiday shopping? Avoid the last-minute panic over baggage allowance by pre-empting the problem. Always pack an extra foldable tote or a lightweight duffel bag inside your main luggage. It takes up virtually no space when empty and weighs next to nothing.
This serves as a brilliant overflow bag for all your souvenirs, gifts, or clothes acquired during your trip. If your checked luggage is suddenly full, you can use the foldable backpack* as a second carry-on for soft goods, or as a dedicated laundry bag, saving you the expense and hassle of buying a flimsy bag at the airport.
To explore a range of popular foldable backpacks I have included a link to Amazon Best Sellers list*.
