Packing for Hawaii
With airlines now charging for a second - or in some cases even the first - through parts and rigorous "50 pounds per bag" weight limits, the frugal traveler forced against the plan wisely to rack up expensive baggage fees. I used to travel with the motto "do not check your luggage if you can afford to lose if you can afford to lose it, no," so I never traveled anywhere with just overMy hand luggage. While it is always good, as simple as possible for travel, with the advent of new strict limits on hand luggage and my age (and associated growing desire for comfort in the car) that I learned to travel bag plus one carry my -on. The key is the smart packaging, so that you can pack less.
Be Smart About the hand luggage: Most airlines allow you to bring one carry-on baggage and one personal item such as a handbag or a laptop. I push a little 'ofAction hand luggage and suitcases in my lap-top computer that also has room for a camera (lost in all my other luggage), my SLR camera and a change of clothes for emergencies. In general, they let me out with this. Since I was neither the carrier nor the TSA inspectors and trust my bags more times than I can remember I lost, I pack my camera more videos and most of my clothes in my carry other hand so that there is no need to check. In this case, I've also always with a literwater (purchased at the airport after the security inspection) and some snacks.
It takes at least a book to read during the flight, tickets, reservation confirmations, travelers' checks, a list of phone numbers, spare glasses, medications in a waterproof bag in your hand luggage you plan to be made to keep more firmly.
Remember that the more books, extra batteries, memory cards, video tape or film for the camera at Wal-Mart and Costco on-island can be purchased almostcheap as the mainland and do not need to fill with your extra baggage. If you do film and pack in hand luggage, be sure to protect against X-ray
Plan your activities you can indulge in particular activities, while in Hawaii, specific equipment or clothes require planning - it is best to think carefully when packing. If you are snorkeling, many people want to make money to save their own equipment. This is false economy, ifIt makes you pay for an extra piece of luggage on the plane. Buy snorkeling equipment on the island is pretty cheap and the rent is fast, simple and cheaper. The same can be said for renting diving equipment and golf clubs. Activities such as hiking and horseback riding requires a special wardrobe, but if you think about it, you just need suitable shoes / boots and a pair of pants and T-shirts to bring the activity. If you plan to attend the summit,remember that they can be pretty cold - snow or rain even - we plan and pack accordingly. If you put your shoes, I recommend that you wear on the plane to save weight and space in the luggage. As far as camera equipment or musical instruments - no expensive equipment or sensitive for that matter - my philosophy is never to go with him. Do not control the camera, guitar, laptop, etc. - is a recipe for losing.
Plan for Climate: tropical temperatures vary as to the level of the sea only to Hawaiiabout 10 degrees between day and night throughout the year. And 'hot during the day, plan a wardrobe fresh. The windward side is generally rainy and "up-country" city (Bergen) to experience frequent rain showers in the afternoon. In the evening, especially up-country are pleasantly cool, as it is usually an evening or onshore winds. With foresight, you can use your wardrobe without cover all these situations bulky, heavy or ornate.
Specialties: Wedding in Hawaii are not required, evenCircuit Court judges wear Aloha shirts under their clothes here. A nice shirt, usually a shirt and a pair of khaki Aloha, the wardrobe of choice in the finest restaurants and nightclubs - anywhere else it is shorts and sandals. I would recommend a full wardrobe consists of a polo-style shirt and a pair of Aloha shirts, a pair of long khaki pants and three pairs of shorts, tank tops or a couple of shirts, this is all you need to cover more. Women want a light summer dress, or throwRock. Sandals are all that is required or the type of shoes (your feet are HOT) want - unless you want to throw in a pair of sneakers or walking for exercise.
Bring two bathing suits - you'll be amazed how comfortable in the water in the tropics warm, if you're just in a refreshing pool after a hot day or snorkel with turtles and fish every day, so you probably want to take a bath every day. Swimwear rarely dry overnight and it is much easier to get into a warm,Drysuit as a wet, cold.
If you are on horseback, or explore the higher areas such as Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Mauna Kea or plan, you should bring a pair of jeans and hiking shoes, jacket, sweater and light rain / wind jacket too. A compact travel umbrella is always a good idea.
Do not forget to bring your products and personal items, I used to bring this up in case of lost luggage, but the restrictions on liquids and gels and razors make this impractical.Drugs, of course, to go in hand luggage. Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses and sunburn cream (I use an aloe gel) make your vacation smooth, but be purchased cheaply on the spot, if you do not have room for everyone.
Incidentally, two things you need to head to speak, if you are in Hawaii - if you get thirsty, you waited too long to get a glass of water when you start to feel the sun, you need to make long-awaited sunscreen. Drink more water than you thinkIt is necessary, please contact the sunscreen before going out and reapply often, you think you need. Your body is used more temperate climates and do not warn in case of danger.
Many people plan ahead for enough space to back souvenirs and gifts, modern restrictions on the number of bags allowed impractical. Instead, I spend a month before my trip through my wardrobe weeding, with a set of very nice clothes and the rest of the clothes that I takeelements are tied for second-hand store. So I simply left at the end of my stay and then have more space in my luggage for everything you buy. Remember that the United States. Post Office flat rate, pre-paid, date of shipment weight boxes sold at very cheap prices. Ask "boxes flat rate shipping" and send those gifts to secure at home, cheaply and without fuss on your part.
