A FIELD GUIDE TO GOING LIGHTER
A good trip
starts with
what you carry.
Thoughtful bags, useful gear and a little preparation. Make room for the part of the journey that matters.

THE ESSENTIALS / SEVEN FIELD GUIDES
Less guesswork.
More going places.
Start with your allowance, the things you need and a bag that fits both.
Luggage
Choose the bag around its packed dimensions, handling and repairability.
Personal-item bags
The useful little bag that needs to fit more than a marketing label.
Travel backpacks
Find a comfortable load and a bag that works through every transfer.
Packing
A list you can repeat, with room for the journey itself.
Baggage rules
Keep dimensions, weight and fare entitlement in the same conversation.
Travel accessories
Small things should earn their place in the bag.
Luggage care
Make the bag ready for another trip.
AN ALLOWANCE, IN PERSPECTIVE
The baggage atlas.
Choose an airline and bag type. See the dimensions, then check your own packed bag against the reference.
CHOOSE YOUR ALLOWANCE
Included in all fares. Must fit under the seat.
Limits include protruding handles and wheels. Confirm the operating airline, fare and aircraft before departure.
Check the airline’s current policy ↗Source checked September 8, 2026. This is a saved reference, not a live booking connection.
40 × 30 × 20 cm
Dimensions are sorted to allow rotation. A sizer, flexible bulges and aircraft storage can still affect acceptance. Airlines’ published cm and inch limits may be rounded differently; a near-limit bag deserves a direct check.
YOUR NEXT TRIP, TAKING SHAPE
Give the days
a little direction.
An editable itinerary, a budget you can trace and a few reminders before you go. Leave some room for getting pleasantly sidetracked.
