Let's face it, packing for a vacation is never easy. And with so many factors at play—from the length of your trip to your changing itinerary—it's easy to overpack or underpack, especially if you leave it to the last minute. To help you get going again, we've compiled an ultimate all-in-one packing list which you can download here.

While we can't do all the packing for you, we've got you covered with useful travel hacks courtesy of your fellow travelers...

Pazi na prtljag

1. Koristite kocke za pakovanje

Ove izdržljive i lagane torbe omogućavaju vam da grupišete slične predmete (mislim: donji veš, modne dodatke, odeću za plažu) i spakujete ih u jednu kocku. Ovo olakšava raspakivanje i prepakivanje.

"Everyone from the U.S. seems to love Amazon basics or Ebags. Higher priced cubes from Eagle Creek and Osprey are also very well-reviewed." - Ceetine in the Travel Gadgets and Gear forum

2. Roll, don't fold

Rolled-up clothes take up less space and help prevent wrinkling. However, for heavier clothing like winter jackets, you'll save more space by folding them or laying them flat at the bottom of your suitcase.

"I have been on a 3-week trip and never once used an iron. The trick is to smooth as you roll and roll as tight as you can. I just leave them rolled until I'm ready to wear them. You will be amazed how simple it is." - texsun59 in the Las Vegas forum

3. Postavite najteži predmet na dno

Svoje najteže predmete uvijek spakujte na dno kofera. Najviše{0}}teški kofer rizikuje da se prevrne. Česti putnici niskobudžetnih avio-kompanija takođe će znati da je najbolji način da smanjite svoj prtljag da nosite najkrupniju odeću u avionu.

"Wear your bulkiest item(s) of clothing on the plane. A sweater, jeans and sneakers take up way more room than T-shirts, slacks and sandals do. This lets you take a smaller bag/suitcase." - MusketeersPlus2 in the Tripadvisor asks... forum

Budite spremni za najgore-scenarije

4. Spakujte dodatni set odjeće u ručnu-rublju

While lost luggage is pretty rare these days, baggage delays are still common, even if your flight is short and direct. Pack an extra set of clothes (especially a change of socks and underwear)—this is also useful during a layover if you want to freshen up.

"I always pack a swimsuit, a complete change of clothes, all meds, lotions, sunscreen, and anything else you would want in case your luggage gets lost or delayed. This has happened to us before and we were able to carry on as though nothing happened and enjoy beginning our vacation." - Bips in the Hawaii forum

5. Share suitcases if you're traveling as a family

Another approach is to make sure you have each person's essentials in every suitcase, in case some bags get delayed or go missing.

"We always 'mix-pack' our cases so that each person has some of their stuff in each case so if one of the cases goes missing, we all have something remaining. We have had cases going in one direction whilst we have gone in another so this works for us." - fjab in the Family Travel forum

6. Ponesite produžetak utičnice

If you're traveling with someone, or with family, the last thing you'll want is to fight over the limited number of charging points in the hotel room. Bring along a socket extension so that you can juice up multiple devices in one go.

Pakovanje za zimu

7. Spakujte slojeve za hladno vrijeme

Instead of one bulky winter jacket, go for lightweight layers that won't weigh down your suitcase. A thermal shirt will keep you warm when layered with other pieces of clothing, including scarves. You can always add or remove layers depending on how cold it gets outside.

"I bring clothes that dry really quickly, so I can wash them easily and I can get away with packing really, really light. The goal for me is to never check bags." - BlueSparrow in the Tripadvisor asks... forum

8. Birajte donji deo umesto vune

Preskočite moderan vuneni kaput i uzmite puf jaknu. Svoju jaknu možete staviti u svoj dnevni ranac kao dodatni sloj topline tokom super hladnih dana, koristiti je kao jastuk na letu ili je umotati u malu torbicu kako biste uštedjeli prostor.

Pakovanje za proleće

9. Pazite na sezonu polena

Čestice polena podižu se sa toplim vazduhom u podne popodne i ponovo se spuštaju kada se vazduh ohladi noću. Dok ste na otvorenom, držite pri ruci malu tubu vazelina kako biste je razmazali po unutrašnjoj strani dna nosa, što može poslužiti kao zamka za neke čestice polena. Dobar par nijansi također može spriječiti polen u očima.

"It's weird, but we're used to it. (Pollen) might cover your parked car windshield in a matter of a couple of hours at its worst. Just bring a light jacket and you should be fine." - panchopup. in the Road Trips forum

10. Ponesite odjeću za promjenjive vremenske prilike

Traveling in spring can be especially tricky—your destination can be chilly, warm, wet or dry, or even all four in a single day. Your best bet? Bring clothing that is breathable, insulating, sweat-absorbing and quick-drying to prepare you for those abrupt weather changes (merino wool clothing is a good choice).

"In a word, layers! We wore mainly lightweight travel-type pants and long-sleeve T-shirts, or a T-shirt under a light jumper. It certainly can warm up during the day and if you're walking, you could still get warm but by evening it would cool off." - cravingescape in the Japan forum

Pakovanje za ljeto

11. Koristite vrećice koje se mogu zatvoriti kako biste spriječili stjenice

Apart from your usual insect repellent, bring along a few resealable bags when visiting the tropics to prevent bedbugs (it's peak season!) from hitching a ride in your luggage. Use these bags to stash your dirty clothes, and wash them in hot water the moment you arrive at your next hotel.

12. Upotrijebite boce s raspršivačem kako biste pobijedili vlagu

We get it—humid countries (think many parts of Southeast Asia can get you feeling hot and sticky within minutes. If you can't park yourself in front of an A/C unit, the next best thing is to bring a water spray bottle to mist your face while exploring under the hot sun.

Pakovanje za jesen

13. Pakovanje za nestalne vremenske prilike

Jesensko vrijeme ponekad može izgledati nepredvidivo, sa sunčanim danima, prohladnim večerima i povremenim poslijepodnevnim pljuskovima. Pobrinite se da spakujete široku-vodootpornu jaknu za kišu ili vjetrovku koju možete skinuti ili vezati oko struka kada je potrebno, zajedno s nekoliko pari vunenih čarapa.

"Be sure to pack a raincoat, a waterproof scarf, a small folding umbrella and gloves, and layer clothing type. I wear mostly dark slacks for the dirty metro rides and lighter tops but not white (only because I don't want to be washing clothes all the time). For nice dinners I bring one nice black dress and some colorful scarves." - Discover
