A gal can never have too many pairs of wedges&#8230;right? But in true jet set fashion, it&#8217;s a lot easier to pack everything in a carry-on. Yes, as in <em>one<\/em> small carry-on. If we can do it, you can too!<\/p>\n<p>And if you&#8217;re stumped on how to pack, we tapped\u00a0Jen Rubio and Steph Korey, founders of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.awaytravel.com\" target=\"_blank\">Away<\/a> (aka the most coveted luggage out there), for some uh-mazing pointers. They designed their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.awaytravel.com\/buy\" target=\"_blank\">carry-on<\/a>\u00a0with people like us in mind. Think a compression system to ensure you can pack\u00a0<em>way<\/em> more, a built-in battery to charge any USB device on-the-go, a built-in laundry bag, and much more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/static-blog.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/19090103\/Away-Luggage.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" itemprop=\"image\" class=\" size-full wp-image-78509 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/static-blog.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/19090103\/Away-Luggage.jpg\" alt=\"Away Luggage\" width=\"550\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/19090103\/Away-Luggage.jpg 550w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/19090103\/Away-Luggage-223x222.jpg 223w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/19090103\/Away-Luggage-231x230.jpg 231w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>The Best Carry-On Packing Tips<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Always bring a blarf (a hybrid blanket-scarf) to stay warm on cold plane rides while looking great and avoiding the questionable sanitized airplane blankets.<\/li>\n<li>Shoes take up the most space, so prioritize packing day-to-night options like flat sandals.<\/li>\n<li>Bring a bathing suit no matter what your destination is &#8212; it takes up minimal space and you just never know.<\/li>\n<li>Always bring a fully charged portable power bank for when you land, because finding an outlet in an airport can be nearly impossible.
