Wow you have loads in your bags! I have passports, purse, toothpaste and toothbrush, hair brush and kindle. That’s it! No matter where I’m travelling! I don’t carry anything for kids other than passports. Wet wipes etc go in their bag!

We used to have loads as carry on, but it's reduced over the years. Now we just have our personal bags which go under the seat in front so we don't have to fight with everyone else for the overhead bins. The kids have snacks and their tablets in their bags. I carry all the passports and travel documents, I used to bring all sorts of toiletries and spare clothes, but now it's just my phone, purse and kindle. But to be honest I find it difficult to focus on reading on the plane so I reckon even the kindle will be relegated to the suitcase.

Loads. It’s jam packed. I pack my small handbag inside it(in that is phone, wallet, passport, tickets so I’m not rummaging) then it’s ipad and chargers. Small toiletries in a make up bag. Swimming costume, change of clothes in case bags go missing me or one of children throw up on me. Wet wipes, anti bac gel, Snacks and drinks for the children. Any medication. I’ll also pack little gifts to keep my two children entertained on the flight.

Children carry own spare clothes, own snack pack and Drink. I will take their packed lunch (they won’t eat plane food) Favourite soft toy, few bits to play with, headphones and ear defenders. They don’t have the iPads in their bags.

I have never flown without checking a bag so my hand luggage usually consists of...

Phone
Ipad
Chargers
toothbrush/charger
prescription meds
hand sanitizer /antibac wipes
toiletry bag (hair brush, nail clippers, over the counter meds, etc)
an empty water bottle
and always a change of underwear!

I couldn't manage on hand luggage only, I always pay for luggage if it isn't included.

Therefore my hand luggage consists of a medium sized handbag with purse, passports, paperwork, magazine or book, tissues, sunglasses, sweets and camera.
