Rather than lay out pants, shirts, etc. all seperately, I lay out one outfit for each day, then pack them together. So every day, everything I need to wear is right on top. Then I usually just pack one extra of each piece of clothing in case I drop a milkshake in my lap or something. :D I can pack a weeks worth of stuff in one suitcase and still have enough room for the stuff I bring back with me.

Me too. I used to have one of those Freedom bags, never again. They take up too much room and most hotels have shampoo, etc. I just take a makeup bag and can get most stuff in that. I can't see taking huge tubes of toothpaste, etc. It is all common sense. Most places have hairdryers too. You can always check online for most hotels and cruises and they will say what each room has. I carry one purse in the day time and one dinner bag for evening. Yes, you can easily pack a week in one suitcase per person with a garment bag too.

Yes Janice I was surprised at all the bathroom things they had on the boat. Everything I needed and good stuff too, not cheesy hotel soap, and shampoo. I have a freedom bag too, lol. I love it for going on trips longer than 4 days. Good for camping too because they provide nothing.

They are nice, I am just saying they take up so much room in a suitcase.
