If you’re someone who prefers flying with only carry-on luggage, then you’ll be pleased to know that many airlines offer you the chance to bring a personal item on board along with your carry-on piece. Still, knowing what to pack is crucial to ensuring that you make the most of the space you have. Here are some products that you would best avoid packing in your personal piece.

Hardcover Books

Reading is a great way to pass the time, particularly on long-haul flights and while relaxing on the beach or at the pool. Still, books can be bulky, especially hardcovers. Instead of bringing books, consider loading your favorite titles into your Kindle or eReader so that you save space.

Bulky Neck Pillow

While you may think that it is important to bring a neck pillow on your flight to remain comfortable, this is a bulky item that will take up a lot of space while serving little other use. Rather find a foldable neck pillow that you can easily stow away in a side pocket if you definitely know that you want this kind of item.

Loose Cords And Cables

From laptops to smartphones, tablets, eBooks and other devices, you’ve probably built up quite the inventory of cables and cords over time. Unfortunately, loose cords and cables will not only take up space but can also get tangled and disorganized. Rather than leaving them loose, store all of your cords and cables in a dedicated electronics organizer so that you keep everything in check.
