Do compression packing bags really work? We tested so you don’t have to

We packed the same suitcase twice and the results were surprising

If you’ve ever tried to squeeze one more outfit into your carry-on, you’ve probably considered using a compression packing bag. It's one of those travel hacks that sounds promising, but does it actually make a difference? I decided to find out for myself by packing the same suitcase twice: once using a compression bag and once the old-fashioned way. I wanted to see how much space I could actually save, how wrinkled my clothes would get, and whether the hassle was worth it. Here’s what happened.
So, what is compression packing?

Basically, compression packing is a way to squeeze your clothes down to take up less space. You use a compression bag or compression packing cube to push the air out and flatten everything. The idea is that you can bring the same amount of clothes, but they’ll take up less room. This means you might actually have space for an extra outfit or two (or some souvenirs on the way home).
How I tested compression packing
To put it to the test, I packed for a standard long-weekend trip. The idea was to keep everything realistic, just enough clothes for a three to four-day getaway without overdoing it. Here’s what I packed:

Are luggage covers TSA approved? What travelers should know before using one

They're trendy and protective, but do they actually pass the TSA test?

If you've ever had your suitcase come down the airport baggage carousel with a new scratch, dent, or black mark that wasn’t there before, you’re not alone. I’ve had my favorite carry-on come back looking like it went through a war zone, which is when I started considering luggage covers. But if you're planning to use one, you might wonder: Are luggage covers TSA-approved?

The short answer is yes, luggage covers are TSA-approved, but there are a few things you should know before wrapping your suitcase up like a Christmas present.
What are luggage covers, anyway?

JetBlue to take flight in new Dunkin’ themed aircraft

JetBlue runs on Dunkin'

Dunkin' JetBlue plane

Your next JetBlue flight from Boston Logan International Airport could be aboard the airline's newest Dunkin' themed aircraft. The Brewing Altitude aircraft, announced yesterday, features Dunkin's iconic pink and orange branding. Unveiled in Boston at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, this new plane livery showcases JetBlue's investment in New England, where both brands have a long history. The bright coloring of this new A320 aircraft is brought to life with a playful donut and coffee motif, inspiring both coffee and travel fans alike.

The partnership between Dunkin' and JetBlue dates back nearly 20 years to 2006, when JetBlue served customers Dunkin's original blend mid-flight. In 2011, Dunkin' became the airline's official coffee provider onboard all flights. Now, the iconic partnership between these two brands continues with the launch of this bold new aircraft. Now, JetBlue travelers can celebrate the collaboration at 35,000 feet above in this new custom-Dunkin' plane.
