A few years ago I was running through the airport when I realized my suitcase's zipper had split open but I had no time to replace my luggage. I knew I had to find a fix – fast. After a mad search, I managed to find a solution that worked for the entire trip. If you’ve ever been in this situation, you know how annoying a broken zipper can be. Luckily, there are a few easy ways to fix a zipper and get your suitcase back in action without replacing the whole bag. Here’s how to repair a luggage zipper.

I packed for my Alaskan cruise as if I were heading to a mild spring getaway, and I spent the trip shivering on deck, completely unprepared for glacier hikes and misty mornings. Since then, I’ve fine-tuned my cruise packing strategy, and I’m here to make sure you don’t make the same rookie errors. So, here’s how to pack for a cruise, depending on where you’re headed.
For a Caribbean cruise, keep it light, breezy, and beach ready
