The TSA allows you to bring liquids, aerosols, and gels, and 3.4 oz (100 ml) or fewer containers, and all of such containers should fit in a one quart-size (1 L) bag.

6. Know All the Rules

Look up the rules and regulations of your airline for packing carry-on baggage before you start packing. The most essential thing is this: ensure that the suitcase you would like to bring does not go beyond the size requirements for a carry-on bag that could be varying from different airlines.

7. Cut the Clothes You Want to Bring in Half

After listing the things you need to bring, lay down all the clothes you would like to bring... and cut them in half.

There is a chance that you would not need everything. If you have difficulty deciding the clothes to leave out, picture which items you can mix together to create a new outfit daily.
