Choose where and when you are going, how long for and what kind of trip it is. The list adapts to the average temperature and the number of rainy days for that month, and to activities such as swimming, hiking or dinners out.

How it works
Built on real weather
Temperatures and rainy days come from ERA5 climate data (2021–2023 averages) for each destination. A trip to Lisbon in January gets a jumper and a rain jacket; the same trip in July gets sunscreen and sandals.
Quantities
Clothes are counted per day, capped at five sets if you can do laundry and ten if you cannot — most travellers pack far too much.
Tick as you pack
Every item has a checkbox so you can work through the list while packing. Download the PDF to keep a copy offline.
Common questions
How does the packing list know the weather?
It uses monthly climate averages (high, low and rainy days) for your destination, taken from the ERA5 reanalysis for 2021–2023. Averages are not forecasts, so check the forecast a few days before you leave.
What should go in hand luggage?
Medicines with copies of prescriptions, your passport, cards, phone, charger and anything valuable or fragile. Liquids in hand luggage are usually limited to 100 ml containers in a clear bag, though some airports have relaxed this — check your airport.
Do I need a travel adapter?
Most likely, if you are going to another region. The list reminds you; check the plug type for your destination country before you go.
How many clothes should I pack for a week?
Five sets is enough for most people if you can wash a few things mid-trip. Choose colours that mix, and wear the bulkiest items on the plane.
