From my travel experience, I have packed and unpacked suitcases several times. Following tips should help folks flying for the first time. List of Items to Buy and Pack. List of Items to Pack to USA Students (for Women) When I was student and traveled to USA for the first time, it took several days of planning to pack the suitcase. In recent trips, it takes less than 30 minutes to pack. 1

Check-In Baggage
Following baggage limits apply to/from USA/India. For other country readers, refer to the airlines baggage allowances. Majority of the airlines allow 2 check-in bags (suitcase) upto 23kgs per suitcase. For students, few airlines allow upto 3 check-in bags (23 kgs each). Before booking the flight ticket, ask about the baggage allowance. If you have connecting flight, make sure they don t charge for additional bags. 25 Air Travel Tips for India to USA If you have any questions about baggage allowance, all the airline directly.

Different ways to weigh the suitcase. Make sure you get the weight right. 1. Regular weighing machine Y ou weigh yourself first, then weigh again with the suitcase. Subtract and find the suitcase weight. 2. Buy a hanging weigh machine. Hang the suitcase to calculate the weight. 3. Weight individual items + weight of suitcase (not recommended) Last time my hanging weighing scale messed up the weight. I had 23 kgs and while at airport during check-in, scales showed 24.5 kgs. Always, we have a cover filled with least priority items that can be removed if the weight is more than the limit.

Shishir says: December 10, 2011 at 10:37 PM take spices in small to medium size packets for spices. advantages: 1. small packets can be packed into nooks of the suitcase for efficient packing. 2. In USA, you can open one packet at a time and use instead of opening a large packet and keeping it open. get a digital weighing scale from someone. it s accurate and fun! my experience is carry only big cooker (5 ltr). not 3 ltr one. It s better when you can cook more food at one go in US. more later..

m nna says: December 10, 2011 at 3:17 PM We should utilise the carry-on allowance in best possible way. a small suitcase within the dimensions permissible and with wheels can be stuffed with around 10 kilos. besides that, one small backpack for carrying laptop should be taken and some extra electronics stuff can also be carried in it. you can carry a jacket in hand and also stuff like shawl, books, umbrella in hand above this allowance. Indian students have a typical habit of reaching airports in USA late and also overweight. A little bit of smartness in utilizing cabin baggage allowance will help people a lot.
