John has a very good point here. I have had my tux outfits for many years but
many times lately I leave it at home just because of the hassle transporting it.
Now that the reduced baggage allowance is pretty much universal, and my back is
not what it used to be, we need to pack and travel as light as possible.
The exception to that is when you are fortunate enough to be able drive to and
from the ship. Then you can bring anything you can stuff in the car.
