Belkin surge protector/power strip this is perfect for traveling to protect your small devices and laptops and it also has a couple of usb ports its just you or a couple of people
Anker 5 port charger this is what I always take for family travel it has enough to charge all of our devices and I can have each port designated to a different type of charger so it’s ready to go when someone needs it
Malirona travel bag this bag has traveled with us to Korea and Florida twice each it’s cute and it is extremely durable with lots of pockets and a strap to keep it attached to your wheeled luggage
Large collapsible travel duffle this duffle isn’t as good of quality but folds down to almost nothing and still has made it through multiple trips including road trips
Compression packing cubes these are perfect for packing and really do reduce the luggage space needed
Reusable travel luggage tags I can stretch these and remove them multiple times they hold up through so much
Do you need to get your family to your destination lightly? We are pretty good at that. And we didn’t end up needing anything when we got there. I even found out they wouldn’t provide enough paper towels and toilet paper at the condo so I packed some of that too. I got all of the floaties, tp, paper towels, beach towels, and toiletries for the whole family as well as our shoes and clothes between the three bags. Then coming back was lighter since we left some of the floaties and used our other paper towels and tp.
The girls shared one small carry on roller, J had me to himself and C had his own. We each had a backpack personal bag with our chargers, stainless steel water bottles and snacks which meant they were almost empty on their or way back. And we all it all bottles in the checked luggage for the way back so nothing to deal with at TSA. Though 4 of us had pre check from previous trips. As a side note TSA NO LONGER tags other tickets on the same purchase trip as pre check so my husband and older son had to do regular TSA. The other kids and I took all of the bags through pre check so they would only have to deal with shoes and belts. With my husbands spinal cord injury that is hard enough.
When we check bags to fly as a family the airlines are always amazed at how little we travel with but we are never short of anything. So it’s all in organization.
Another little tip is that if you’re flying buy a roll of distinct ribbon at Walmart and tie it to each piece of luggage to make it easily identifiable at baggage claim it has made this process so stress free.
