Free everyday life tip: Final walkthrough and pass criteria (step 9 of 9 from "Pack a Suitcase for a Week in a Carry-On").
Before you close the front door, do one final check. Passport or ID: in the bag or on your person? Phone and charger? Wallet? One outfit accessible for the first day in case your bag gets gate-checked involuntarily (rare but it happens)? Pull out the packing checklist and run through it one last time.
You have passed this course when you can pack for a seven-day trip in under 30 minutes, your bag weighs under the airline limit on the first weigh-in, and you land at your destination with everything you need and nothing you do not. The real test: if you come home and unpack items you never wore or used, cut them from the list next time. A perfect packing list has zero unused items.
Pro tip: After each trip, cross off anything you packed but didn't use. Within three trips, your packing list will be bulletproof.
