BUDDY UP: If you are travelling with friends or another family, team up to split items such as and first-aid kits so you don’t have to buy separate products.

KIT HITS: Keeping kids distracted is the key to stress-free travel.
At , find a Hoppy Easter activity pack with colouring pencils and stickers for £1.49, or at find a similar Easter colouring book for £1.50.
BE CASE CANNY: Make like and use a shoe hanging organiser, £3.79, amazon.co.uk, for each person, packing a daily outfit in each pocket.
Then fold them up in your case.
Another option is to pack each case using your bags for life or tote bags to organise and separate tops, bottoms, underwear and shoes.
A pill organiser works for hair clips and tiny toys, too.
BRING A BOTTLE: Make sure every family member brings a reusable water bottle.
Take the empty bottles through airport security and refill to stay hydrated on the plane and on the beach.
SNACK SAVER: If you want to cut costs on the journey to your destination, and while there, pack a bag of snacks for the duration of your break.
