You wear your walking boots, waterproofs, fleece and walking trousers,
of course. That leaves space in the holdall for the underwear and
shirts. You may get strange looks in the terminal, but it certainly
minimises luggage :-)

Disregarding the smiley, when I used to fly to Switzerland regularly
for my work, usually just for two to four days at a time, I found that
travelling in winter made it a lot easier to have everything in
carry-on luggage, as a big coat with lots of pockets can take a
surprising amount of stuff.


Can recall flying from Saudi Arabia on a flight late evening (still hot
and humid) and watching a passenger wearing shorts and T-shirt shivering
walking from the plane at Charles de Galle at something like 0600 in the
winter ...
