Travel and Packing

January 9, 2014 forum topics
Happy New Year!

The New Year finds me traveling with our local college to to shoot their men’s basketball games and pressers on the road.

I have the usual gear except lights.

I’m trying to figure out how to pack lighter and smarter.

I have to bring a camera, laptop, batteries, wireless etc.

I also have some other stuff that gets shipped to each venue they play in and then sent back to me.

Lugging my gear thru the airport sucks and I get those mean looks from people when I go thru security because I use 5 bins for my stuff.

I have one of those folding luggage carts which helps go from Point A to Point B, but that is a pain sometimes.

I get really nervous when I have to gate check my bigger bag.
I got into an argument with a flight attendant who asked "if it’s that fragile, just take it out of the bag".

I can’t seem to find a good rolling case that is carry on sized for my gear.
Any thoughts?? Ideas??

Let me know,
Thanks as always and have a great 2014!!
