We're doing the China ABD in Sept 2026 and I want to make sure my thought process is correct for anyone that has gone before.
With the luggage weight limitations, I'm guessing those don't apply until we take our first flight within China, that bags won't be weighed on the train from Hong Kong?
Also, has anyone shipped stuff home from HK or the next hotel? Was it easy?
Trips this long I take clothes I'm happy to leave behind to help with weight but with a stop in Tokyo before HK I know we'll add a little bit of weight. Just trying to sort out options and find a lightweight carryon.
Also with the carry on at 11lb, is a personal item of a reg one pocket jansport backpack ok to use? It'll easily fit under a seat and isnt an obnoxiously huge backpack.
