- A box - a box is not a piece of luggage (stop packing boxes with your belonging, spending a roll of packing tape and writing your address all over it, please)
- Jokes - if you must make an inappropriate airplane, airport joke, do so quietly (no one wants to be tackled to the ground "COPS" style infront of a group of your peers)
- Packing - if travelling on a vacation, continually remind yourself of that, don't pack as though anything you leave behind will be stolen (higher possibility of your luggage being "lost" or "misplaced" on the plane then you might realize)
- Carry-on - the object of this is to have anything close and with you while the plan that you may need during the trip (book, ipod, laptop, gum) .... NOT (knife, boxcutter, perfume, hair clippers, kithcen sink), because then you ask me to help you put it in and out of the overhead compartment
- Heavy luggage - how do you know your luggage is too heavy? WHEN YOU CANT CARRY IT! If you need to ask someone to lift, drag, carry, or kick your bag for you, its too heavy.
I could go on all day ... but alas I digress. When travelling be smart, think about what is necessary for you trip. Remember the point or at least one of the reasons of travel, to see something different to live as the people of that land live. "When in Rome do as the Romans do", don't go to Rome with your deep fryer packed in your luggage and boxes of KD in your carry on, so you can eat all the same things you eat at home.
