When travelling as a couple do you 'split' your cases?

SnowBelle_2

Out of interest when travelling with your other half or friends do you split your clothes half in one case and half in the other?

I have a fear of losing a case and trying to fit into my 6'2 OH's clothes!

We always split the cases,but when I tell other people they look at me like I am nuts!
I suppose if we lose both then we are up the creek!:)

Yes we always do this, perfectly sensible if you ask me

We always split our clothes, we also take shorts, T shirts & swimming gear in hand luggage in case the suitcases go awry. Not stupid at all.

We do as well, just to be on the safe side!

I don't think you are 'nuts'. We always split clothes between suitcases as well.

Another one who splits here. Always did, but after my last job which included dealing with baggage claims, I would strongly advise that everyone did, and takes a change of clothes in hand luggage.
