You may even
try fitting everything in two
carry on bags. But if you think you can get away with two huge duffel bags,
think again.
There
is a scourge threatening today's airports. No, it's not Hare Krishnas.
It's the tiny little frame many airports have installed on the X-ray conveyor
belts to limit the size of your bags. You literally cannot fit much more
than a computer laptop case through them.
But,
where there's a will, there's a way. Put all of your items in several small
shopping bags and stuff 'em through. Once you're on the other side, unfold
your large bag and re-pack it. Voila, you and your luggage are on your
way - together!
