Great video! I have a similar video, and one tip I include is to pack a change of socks/underwear/t-shirt, some toiletries, and some medication in the personal bag It might seem obvious, but it is a good thing to remember and it can make the trip a lot easier to have a cough drop or bandaid handy when you need it
