For a 3 to 5-day city break, our packing list is ideal. Bring comfortable shoes, as you will often cover many kilometres in the city. In addition, 3 to 4 shirts, a warm jumper or jacket and well-fitting trousers will do. A compact daypack is handy for excursions and sightseeing. Also forget your travel adapter, phone charger and powerbank not, so you can always be reached. Finally, a small toiletry bag with travel-size toiletries indispensable. That way you travel organised and have exactly what you need, without unnecessary luggage

During a city break, besides clothes, there are some essential travel essentials you should not forget. Think of your travel documents such as ID or passport, plane tickets and possibly a booking overview of your hotel. Means of payment are also important: bring both a credit card and some cash for emergencies. For travelling, your smartphone, charger and a powerbank indispensable so you can always be reached and take photos. Also consider a camera with extra memory card and lenses if you like to take pictures. A travel journal is handy for jotting down tips or reminders. Don't want to forget anything?

When packing your hand luggage for a city break, it is important to take into account airline rules. Liquids are only allowed in containers of maximum 100 ml and must fit together in one transparent, re-sealable 1-litre bag. Take a look at our toilet bags.

Think of liquids as shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste or liquid make-up. Powerbanks and electronic devices such as laptops and cameras should always be in your hand baggage. Heavier items (without battery) that you do not need during the flight are better put in your check-in baggage. Always check your airline's cabin baggage rules before departure to avoid any surprises.

As the weather during a city break can sometimes be unpredictable, it is smart to work with the well-known layering system. By wearing several light layers, you can easily take something on or off as the temperature changes. Think T-shirts or blouses as a base, a snug jumper or cardigan for extra warmth and a rain jacket to be protected from an unexpected shower.

Accessories are just as important: a scarf will keep you warm, while sunglasses and a cap offer protection from the sun. For really changeable weather, a compact umbrella is ideal as it takes up little space in your bag. This way you are always prepared, whether it is raining, windy or sunny.

Smart packing is the key to light luggage. Roll up your clothes and use packing cubes to keep everything compact and organised. Fill empty spaces, such as shoes, with small items and don't take too many shoes. With our transparent toiletry bag and silicone bottles save space and comply with hand baggage regulations. Leave “just-in-case” stuff at home; this way you travel light and carefree.
