Celebs Like Kim Kardashian And Gigi Hadid Pack Like Pros: Here's How You Can Too

Ever wonder how celebrities manage to look flawless, stay organized, and breeze through airports like pros? Turns out, it's not just first-class tickets and glam squads because these stars have some seriously smart travel tricks up their sleeves.

From skipping checked baggage to packing a mini fashion lookbook, here are some celeb-approved travel hacks that'll make your next trip smoother, savvier, and way more stylish.

Supermodel Gigi Hadid may jet-set for a living, but she's all about keeping it simple when it comes to luggage. In an interview with Harper's Bazaar, Hadid revealed she never checks bags, and it's a game-changer for stress-free travel.

"I try to only travel with a carry-on at all times," she said. "I pretty much spend half my life at the airport, so checking in bags is just going to add more onto that."

By packing only the essentials into a carry-on, Hadid avoids long check-in lines and saves time at the baggage carousel. It's minimalist packing with maximum benefits.

When your wardrobe's worth more than most people's rent, protecting your outfits is a top priority. That's why Kim Kardashian bags everything before takeoff.

"I put everything in bags! Shoes go in shoe bags to protect the rest of my clothes," she shared on her app. "I also use Ziploc bags for toiletries... I keep all of my makeup in little pouches, too."

And when it comes to choosing the best TSA-compliant bag? Kim's go-to, Ziploc, just so happens to be a kitchen staple that doubles as a travel essential.

Ziploc Freezer Quart Bags have been named the best TSA-compliant travel bags by Wirecutter, and it's easy to see why. With exclusive 9 Point Protection, these quart-size bags are ultra-durable, leak-resistant, and designed to handle the messiest of makeup or toiletry mishaps. The double zipper strength provides a satisfying click when sealed, so you know your glam gear is safe.

They're also BPA- and phthalate-free, and unlike stiff plastic pouches, they flex and fit into the tight corners of your carry-on with ease. Translation? Kim's glam stays protected and TSA-approved.

The first thing Christina Applegate does when she arrives at a hotel? Unpack everything.

"As soon as I check in, I have to unpack," she told InStyle. "It makes me feel settled."

By hanging up her clothes and organizing toiletries ASAP, she avoids wrinkled outfits and chaotic suitcase digs.

Bonus: It makes your hotel room feel more like home, and way less like a closet exploded.

Style icon Chrissy Teigen takes the guesswork out of vacation outfits with one genius move: she pre-plans everything and creates a mini lookbook.

In a video shared on social media, Teigen showed how she lays out full outfits, shoes, accessories, and all, then binds the looks into a book. The result? Zero outfit stress, no overpacking, and more time for fun once you arrive.

Model Lily Aldridge swears by packing pieces that do double duty, saving space and adding style. Her go-to item? A versatile scarf that keeps her cozy in-flight and transforms into a chic beach cover-up upon arrival.

"Really comfortable scarves, because I like to get cozy on the plane since they can get so cold," she told

Lily keeps her packing tight and intentional, often sticking to just a carry-on, and a good scarf is her ultimate two-for-one.

Actress Julia Stiles has cracked the code for keeping fragile beauty products intact on the go. Her secret weapon? Toiletry bags lined with Bubble Wrap, and yes, they're TSA-approved.

"There are these little, square toiletry bags that have bubble wrap on the outside," she told Travel + Leisure, "but by airport security, they're considered plastic baggies that you can put your toiletries in when you have to declare them — but because there's bubble wrap, they also protect your stuff."

It's a genius hack for protecting glass bottles, delicate serums, and pricey skincare, all while staying security-friendly.
