OK, some of these things I can understand, but really, how many of you have ever packed a fold up bike?

Every time I pack, I always think women get the short end of the stick.. Their crap has crap....

When packing, we prep a list of items; a fold-up bike has never been on that list.
We use a method of packing that I found on YouTube involving stacking and folding clothes into a nice bundle before placing it in the suitcase. Works great every time.

Are you even allowed to bring a folding bike onboard ?
Not on Carnival. From thei FAQs/ Prohibited items list;
Bicycles (this includes travel bicycles that can be folded up)

I just pack more clothing and personal hygiene items, than anything
That article must be by someone with a porter to carry all of the extra stuff......
I pack light and if I need anything along the way I just buy it. I collect Polo shirts from most ports so I know I don't have to pack them, I just wear the ones I buy on each trip. I did a week long trip with just a cry on bag and my book pack. I did 4 week long trip with one checked case and my book pack (that included my tux and dress shoes and a couple vest and tie sets)

I wish I could be lax with my packing... I make all my outfits, roll them together, have a few spare ones, dressed for dinner and a good chunk of swimsuits because I like options.

I pack like I do if I was going away for the weekend. There are laundry facilities if I need it, a commissary for OTC meds, a candy & treat shop, etc. I don't stress about it. My hubby, on the other hand, packs the kitchen sink. It is a comical role-reversal thing.
4 outfits/2 dressy
socks/undergarments/swim suit
tennis shoes/dress shoes/water shoes/flip flops
meds & sunscreen
comb & straightener/make-up & perfume
adult beverage cup
solar charger for phone
AND GO!
