Overheard a couple at the airport complaining about a $50 checked bag fee for their trip to Prague

It made me remember when airlines used to include that, and now I always pack a single carry-on for trips under a week. What's your best tip for packing light to avoid extra fees?

That "single carry-on for trips under a week" is the key. I plan every outfit around one color, like all black or navy, so everything mixes and matches without taking extra pieces. It cuts my packing in half.

That's how you handle most things, right? Keep it simple.

Ever try the capsule wardrobe trick? I basically live in neutrals now so everything goes together, and I never have to think about what to pack. It feels like a cheat code for travel.
