    No matter what size you are, you can wear a jacket with as many pockets as you want. Travel cheaper by looking like an vaudeville ex-army doomsday prepper with all your underwear stuffed into pockets of oversized cargo pants, three layers of socks and an entire towel as a toga shirt over your other shirts.

    Pro-tip: If you have a greasy paper bag they’ll think it’s food and won’t charge you for a carry-on.

      Dude, I barely fit in the seats now with my phone in my pocket and you want me to carry a weeks worth of clothing and travel sized toiletries on my person?

      I did that once with camera gear. I stuffed lenses in all my pockets because my carry on bag was too heavy. “There, 5 kg off, happy ?”

      I’m always cold when flying, so I just layer up. Jeans, sweatpants, short sleeve, long sleeve, sweater, jacket, hat. Then, I put various items in my various pockets. Phone, earbuds, snack bars, bar of soap, small articles of clothing, maybe a tshirt in my jacket pocket, a shoe in each sweatpants pocket. The rest goes in my carry on, no luggage fees.

        You must be the person who’s always in front of me at the line for the security scanners!
