Frozen Water Can Pass Through Security
The disappointing part about flying is that you're not permitted to bring any liquids through security, leaving you thirsty or spending much-needed cash. Typically, all drinks must be purchased within the airport, which can be very pricey. A clever hack to work around this rule is to freeze your drinks and bring them through the checkpoint while they're still frozen so you can drink them when they are fully melted

Travel Tip Tuesday-
Save suitcase space by rolling clothes instead of folding them

This is a tried-and-true travel tip for saving space in your suitcase. Plus, it can help prevent wrinkles.

It’s also helpful to choose travel-friendly fabrics. Knits and stretchy fabrics like basic tees are less prone to wrinkles, and any creases will straighten out once you hang these items up. Woven fabrics like cotton and twill are more likely to wrinkle in your suitcase.
