# Pack to the Baggage Scale, Not to the Suitcase — Free

Weigh the packing list before you zip it and see exactly which item puts you over the airline's limit — with the kilogram figure to cut rather than a vague instruction to pack light.

**Free and complete.** This guide is a standalone free tool — no account, no card, anywhere. The only paid option is one optional extra outcome: $4 one-time. Nothing in the free tier is gated.

## Who it's for

Anyone seeking practical 100% free AI workflows — no paid API keys, credit cards, or subscriptions

## What's free

- Unlimited packing lists, unlimited re-weighs
- Running total, sorted by weight, with overflow marked
- Starter, cabin-only and stress records included

## Optional paid add-on

**$4 one-time.**

- Printable weighed label and packing sheet — tape the sheet next to the suitcase and tick items off as they go in — estimate: ~10 minutes saved per repack
- Saved packing lists per trip — keep three lists in this browser, so the same route is never weighed twice — estimate: ~15 minutes saved per repeat trip
- Overflow plan on the paid copy — a named cut list for each trip's own limit — estimate: ~5 minutes saved per counter-side decision
