What's In Your Carry-on, The Points Guy?

October 4, 2011 at 11:17 AM | by | Comments (2)

Travel voyeurs, every last one of us! It's time for a new series wherein you show off what you're working with. That is, what necessities make it into your carry-on bag. Want to be featured? It's crazy simple. Shoot us an email with a nice big photo of your bag contents and a little bit about why they have pride of place in your carry-on. And of course include your Twitter handle if you so desire.

Next up in the series after peeking into the bags of Max Graham, Annemarie Dooling and Megan Starr is Brian Kelly aka "The Points Guy":

This picture was taken just now at the Intercontinental Rome. So, My key carryon items from left to right:
· Bose QC15 noise canceling headphones
· Michael Kors cashmere hoodie for when flights inevitably get cold
· Flip video cam to catch those ridiculous travel moments...

· Tom Ford shades
· iPhone 4, though I already can't wait for 5!
· Travel-size Chanel Allure sport atomizer that they sell on most KLM/Air France flights duty-free. I like it because it's a twist up, perfect because it never accidentally sprays and is small enough to get through pesky TSA security without attracting any attention.
· Verizon MiFi 4g device so I have high speed wifi with me wherever I go. I often use this at hotels that have slow internet; nothing beleaguers a blogger more!
· Macbook Air 13", my partner in crime.
· Canon S95 Powershot Camera (not pictured as it's taking the photo).

About the Author: Brian is the undisputed leading expert of all things loyalty points, from frequent flyer miles to dining rewards. He's also a very cool guy and Jaunted-approved all around. You can catch his expert advice and adventures on his sites ThePointsGuy.com and TravelCreditCards.com, and of course he's over on Twitter @thepointsguy.

Great Things

A great carry on! Love the IC Rome...just above the Spanish Steps..steps away from Ginori store. The first hotel I was ignored at by the doorman and the first hotel that had a fog free mirror. Enjoy the stay.

What a great carry on! I wish I had myself a pair of Bose headphones!
