Pick your trip type and length, then click Generate Packing List to see your checklist
This packing list generator builds a custom, checkable travel checklist based on your trip type and number of days, so you're not starting from a blank page or a generic list that doesn't match your destination. Choose from Beach, Business, Winter/Cold Weather, Camping/Outdoors, or General/City Trip, and optionally add extras for kids, the gym, or a formal event.
Every list starts with a fixed set of "always pack" essentials — passport/ID, phone charger, wallet, toiletries, medications, and a water bottle. Clothing quantities then scale automatically to your trip length: shirts/tops equal the number of days, underwear and socks are days + 1 for a spare, plus one pair of comfortable shoes and one jacket or layer. On top of that, trip-specific gear is added based on your selected trip type — swim and beach gear, business essentials, cold-weather layers, or camping equipment — and any optional add-on categories you checked are appended under Extras.
A checklist tailored to your actual trip length and destination type reduces both over-packing and the more painful mistake of forgetting something essential. Checking items off as you pack, and being able to print or save the list, makes it easy to pack quickly and confirm nothing was left behind before you head to the airport or car.
