#travel #suitcase #39c3

does anyone perhaps have recommendations for decent suitcases, previously I would have probably just gotten a €100-200 samsonite eve though the wheels aren’t the best such as the Essens 69cm however i have heard from some acquaintances that the plastic on them seems to crack quite easily, which I also noticed in a store when I was shopping for them in 2 different stores I noticed small cracks while inspecting them.

as such I need some recommendations I am thinking of a medium size suitcase for a week of travel.

although I am also looking for another piece of luggage that has a decent suiter.

anyone here have recommendations for a decent suitcase I could use since I need to travel to CCC next month, I had one of those el cheapo no names which wasn’t even that cheap but when checking it I noticed quite a big crack in the plastic.

Zu dem heutigen #FotoVorschlag 'Ich packe meinen Koffer' habe ich euch folgendes Foto mitgebracht:

"Ist er schon offen? Das lässt hoffen."

Jetzt liegt es an eurer Fantasie, um sich Gedanken zu machen, was wohl in diesem Koffer drin steckt. 😀

Smart Packing Hacks: How to save space and avoid baggage fees

With summer holidays in full swing, travellers across Swansea Bay and beyond are looking for ways to avoid hefty baggage fees and airport stress. Whether you’re jetting off with a budget airline or planning a weekend city break, packing smart can save you time, money and hassle.

Lifestyle experts at WinstonsBeds.com have shared their top tips for making the most of your hand luggage — from rolling clothes to using shoes as storage. Here’s how to pack like a pro and keep your holiday budget focused on fun, not fees.

✈️ Choose the right bag

Check your airline’s hand luggage size and weight limits before you start packing. Invest in a lightweight cabin bag and a digital luggage scale to avoid surprises at the airport.

🧳 Use packing cubes

Packing cubes help you organise and compress your clothes, making it easier to fit more into your case. They also keep outfits grouped and make unpacking a breeze.

👕 Roll, don’t fold

Rolling clothes instead of folding them saves space and reduces wrinkles. It’s especially effective for soft fabrics like t-shirts, dresses and swimwear.

💧 Sort your liquids early

Transfer toiletries into travel-sized bottles and store them in a clear plastic bag for easy access at security. Keep them separate from clothes to avoid leaks.

👗 Build a capsule wardrobe

Choose neutral colours and versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched. Aim for outfits that work for sightseeing, beach days and evening meals.

💄 Pack multi-tasking makeup

Opt for makeup items that do double duty — like lip-and-cheek tints or foundation with SPF. Travel-sized samples are ideal for short trips.

👟 Use shoes for storage

Stuff socks, sunglasses or small accessories inside your shoes to save space and protect fragile items. Wrap shoes in a shower cap to keep dirt off your clothes.

💍 Keep jewellery tangle-free

Thread necklaces through drinking straws and store earrings or rings in small pots or pill boxes. It keeps everything neat and easy to find.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Share with travel companions

Coordinate with friends or family to share items like plug adaptors, chargers and toiletries. It cuts down on duplication and frees up space.

🏖️ Check what’s provided

Before you pack, check if your accommodation offers hairdryers, towels or beach gear. Leaving these out can make a big difference to your luggage weight.

Packing light doesn’t mean sacrificing comfort — it means travelling smarter. With these tips, you’ll skip the queues, dodge the fees, and arrive ready to enjoy your break.
