While some items might seem logical to pack in your carry-on luggage, professional packer and travel blogger Lydia Mansel has revealed that not all of them are as logical as they seem. Here are some items that Lydia regrets taking in her carry-on luggage.

High Heels

As Lydia recalls, there’s not much point in bringing shoes that are difficult to walk in. This is especially true when going on vacations that require a lot of walking. While there are some nights where you may want to dress up more, rather put a pair of high heels in your baggage.

Neck Pillow

While a neck pillow may seem comfortable, the extra sleep you get on the plane is not necessarily worth all the space that this bulky pillow will take up in your bag. If you really want a neck pillow, consider finding one that is more compact.

Too Many Skincare Products

Even though skincare is important, going a few days without your rigid daily routine will not necessarily prove damaging. Consider ditching some products when on vacation so that you can have more space in your bags.
