How this list was generated
- Quantities come from the rules shown in the last column: trip length × laundry access, plus climate and activity add-ons.
- This is a starting list, not a universal one. Add medication, chargers and anything specific to your itinerary.
How this tool works
- With laundry access, clothing is capped at four outfit days; without it, one per day is listed.
- Climate and trip type add specific items; the last column states the rule that produced each quantity.
- Carry-on mode applies a single clear liquids bag rather than claiming any airline's exact liquid limit.

Questions & answers
Why only four tops for a ten-day trip?
Because you selected laundry access. Switch to 'No — pack for every day' to get ten.
Does it include medication or documents specific to my destination?
No. It lists universal documents and toiletries only. Add prescriptions, visas, chargers and destination-specific items yourself.
Is the carry-on liquid rule exact?
No. Airlines and countries differ, so the tool only prompts for one clear liquids bag and tells you to check the current rules.
