Been several years since I have flown for work and next week I have several meetings in Dallas. Lots of face time with power brokers yada yada.

My question is I have to wear a suit or two and was curious whata best for packing and taking on a flight?

Im trying to avoid a suit that looks like Joan Rivers neck.

Do I just wear one on the flight and pack a blazer with a shirt to make sure at least one looks sharp?

Sorrry to ask but kinda a big deal and I want to be on my A game.

This is common for me. I have a garment bag that zips up like a suitcase with spinners. I would recommend using something like that, because it keeps everything from getting wrinkled. You can fit 4 suits, 6 shirts, 2 pairs of shoes, toiletries, etc...

This is a great one, and one hell of a price...

Roll them up do not fold. Or if it's for work why not just check them in one of those boxes for suits? The company is paying right?

Yeah companies dime (s)

Excellent call.

I may need to run out and get one. My travel time will start ramping up soon anyway.

I traveled a ton for business (both domestic and international).  Even with the garmet bag, you will still have a bunch of wrinkles.

 

I purchased a small handheld garmet steamer for about $40 that I throw in my bag.  I use it to quickly drop out wrinkles created during travel in my shirts, pants, suits, etc.  Works fantastic and will not damage the wool or wool/blend suits like an iron will.

 

Here is the one I have and it is pretty small.

I've been fortunate to stay at hotels with complimentary dry cleaning. Depending on how much time you have, you may try that if you find you slept in your suit.

 

Are you staying with a certain hotel chain and do you have a rewards membership?

I travel two or three times each month. Pack my jacket, shirts, pants in a suit bag and fold it on the top of everthong else in my carry on. Iron the shirt and pants at the hotel. Hang the jacket in the bathroom, close the door, and turn the shower on hot for five minutes. Steams your jacket - no more wrinkles.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.

      Should definitely look to trade him in the offseason. Some team will fork over draft picks thinking they can turn his career around, especially considering what happened to Mayfield and Darnold after they left here. I think a lot of people will be surprised at how high of a pick he would fetch too. There's a dozen guys you could bring in to match (or exceed) Bryce's production for 1/10th of what his 5th year option is going to cost. Let some other dumb team pay that (and ship us draft picks for the privilege). Dump Dalton too while you're at it, start the QB room over from scratch.
