I’m a travel expert and I have a foolproof trick to making your holiday easier when packing to go abroad
JETTING off on holiday is the highlight of the year for some Brits - but it can be a very stressful process.
From packing your suitcase, to getting to the airport, to making sure you've got all your documents - there's a lot to remember and it's easy for things to slip through the cracks.
But a travel expert has revealed an easy trick to help make going on holiday easier.
Travel writer Skye Sherman has shared her last-minute packing hack to help you avoid forgetting some essential items when you go away.
She explained that she has a "ready-to-go" toiletry bag stuffed full of medication, suncream and beauty products which sits untouched in her bathroom at home.
All the toiletries she needs for her holiday are in the bag and any liquids are under 100ml so she can take them onboard a flight if she is only using hand luggage.

By having her toiletry bag ready at a moment's notice, it takes away some of the stress of packing as she's got one less thing to worry about.
She told : "Make sure everything in this bag is Transport Security Administration (TSA) approved so you never have to worry about whether your bag is good to go for any and every situation.
"Don't touch this toiletry bag at home and you won't have to remember what to pack each time you jet off because it's all in there already."
Lazy holidaymakers will be especially grateful for the tip as it's one less thing to unpack when they get home.

Skye continued: "There's an added perk if you're one of those people who takes weeks to unpack after a trip - the entire point of the grab-and-go toiletry bag is that you never have to unpack it.
"Keep this bag locked and loaded for one more item off your last-minute travel to-do list."
