Hey Erin just a quick suggestion- on my last holiday my partners suitcase went missing. Luckily I wear my t shirts oversized so he could borrow them but we had to buy so much new stuff. Why don’t you and Brandon split your clothes, toiletries etc between your two cases? This way if one suitcase goes missing then you’ll still have something to wear? Just a suggestion- it always makes me feel much calmer when travelling!
I never pack sunglasses at the edge of the case. Always put them in the middle wrapped in clothes. There is less chance of them getting broken. Even better,just put them in your hand luggage.
Dubai is such a wonderful place and I bet you will be back there in no time! I also wanted to visit Dubai but I have no time! I envy you, tbh! :D Also, have you tried using a duffle bag for your travel? I recommend using the Bento Bag from Nomad Lane. It’s my personal item bag with no checked bag fees and no lost luggage. It’s the best!
