9	-->-- ''Film/{{Spaceballs}}''
10
11	A character has a very loose grasp on the idea of "necessities", bringing along towering mountains of suitcases filled with a year's supply of clothes and other frippery they probably don't even need at home. Two waffle irons, for example, so that there is a choice of waffle-dimple patterns. This, for a weekend trip. Special points awarded if the trip is a [[CampingEpisode camping trip]], where the idea is to get back to nature.
12
13	Often leads to HumanPackMule and FancyCamping. Compare CityMouse. May also be a flaw of the AlphaBitch. Can overlap with RichInDollarsPoorInSense if the character is wealthy.

Her magic power is essentially comprised of a HyperspaceWardrobe,[[note]]which houses a variety of weapon-and-armor sets that she can [[ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction freely switch into at will]], as well as other more mundane outfits[[/note]] which would initially lead one to wonder what she needs all that luggage for. It's later revealed she [[BigEater carries food in them.]]
27	* ''Literature/{{Gosick}}'': Victorique packs a lot of suitcases when she goes traveling.
28	* ''Manga/OnePiece'': Before Luffy leaves after the TimeSkip, Hancock prepared him a huge and absolutely loaded backpack, filled with [[LongList 500 pairs of clothes, 1000 lunchboxes, 5 years' worth of handkerchiefs, tissues, and towels, and 3 years' worth of drinkable water, snacks, and silverware, as well as hairbrushes, soaps, creams, and bug bite ointments]].

34	** At the beginning of "Valor y al toro", when the two protagonists are about to get on a cruise for their mission, Filemón tells Mortadelo to pack only whatever is indispensable for the mission. Filemón gets angry when Mortadelo shows up later with a big bag and reminds him of how he only had to pack whatever was ''indispensable''. Mortadelo replies that he's only carrying his keys there, and points to more than a dozen of bags, saying ''that'' is his luggage. Eventually, Filemón allows him to carry only a bundle.
35	** In "Los guardaespaldas", the woman Mortadelo and Filemón have been tasked with protecting plans to travel around the world... and the two agents have to help her carry her absurdly massive luggage. Mortadelo snarkily comments, "Hey madam! Maybe you forgot the piano?", then we get a GilliganCut to them carrying the exact same luggage ''plus a piano'', while the woman thanks Mortadelo for reminding her.
36	* In ''ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW'', Rarity (See the Western Animation folder) does it again when she goes spend a week at a spa. She brings so much luggage that there almost isn't enough room for her in the cart.

Apparently they interpreted the "essentials" to mean everything that they couldn't live without, as Papa Smurf sees that they're ready to take the whole village with them!
38	* In ''ComicBook/XForce'', Sam and [[ComicBook/{{Sunspot}} Roberto]] are sent on a mission that takes them away from their home base. Rich boy Roberto takes 'just enough to get by', which is a stuffed duffel bag and a large suitcase.

45	* ''ComicStrip/{{Cathy}}'': Irving Hillman, the fiancé of Cathy Andrews, is stunned by the amount of baggage Cathy intends to take on their shared vacation. Cathy observes, "Men pack. Women move."
46	* In one Sunday ''ComicStrip/FoxTrot'' strip, Roger laughs at the amount of gear Jason and Peter are bringing on the trip, saying that if they brought much more there wouldn't be room for ''them'' in the car. Obvious to the reader is the fact that that's exactly what they're trying to achieve (Fox family camping trips [[HorribleCampingTrip never end well]]), and in fact most of their luggage is filled with styrofoam.
47	-->'''Peter:''' Out of curiosity, ''how'' much more?\
48	'''Jason:''' I'm running low on duffel bags.
49	** In one early strip, as part of a story arc where the family went to Hawaii, Paige packs not one but ''five'' bags for the holiday - one with beach cosmetics, one with beachwear, one with beach reading materials, one with beach eyewear and one with beach miscellaneous accessories.

57	* [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] in ''Fanfic/TheParselmouthOfGryffindor''. When the Dementors (the ''entire Dementor race'') move away from Azkaban permanently, all they take is ''one'' old rickety suitcase.

60	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
61	* In ''WesternAnimation/AGoofyMovie'', Pete's idea of camping is parking his state-of-the-art RV in the middle of the woods. When parked, the RV expands into a home away from home, with a kitchen, living room with a big-screen TV, a bowling alley on the roof, and a bunch of other modern devices. Pete also barely spends any time out in the actual outdoors, but still considers it camping.
62	* In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsLegendOfEverfree'', we see that the human version of Rarity is just as bad as the pony version. She goes to a summer camp -- where they're supposed to be "roughing out" -- with a mountain of luggage, including enough dresses and fashion supplies to organize a whole fashion show.
63	* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'': Mrs. Potato Head stuffs a ''lot'' of things into her husband's internal compartment when he's getting ready to join the others in their rescue mission. The HilariousOuttakes in the credits have her adding even more.
64	[[/folder]]
65
66	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]

71	* ''Film/TheGreatRace'': Maggie [=DuBois=] takes along a large amount of luggage when she takes part in the title car race. When her car breaks down and the Great Leslie rescues her, she insists that he take her luggage along.
72	* For the Butlers' trip to Pontins in ''Film/HolidayOnTheBuses'', Olive packs far too many cases to fit on Arthur's motorbike, and even what she can bring strains the clutch and requires everyone to have to push:

74	-->'''Olive''': Well, I only packed the essentials.
75	* In ''Film/JungleCruise'', UpperClassTwit [=MacGregor=] brings an obscene amount of luggage to Frank's boat for a trip up the Amazon River.

The only thing Frank doesn't discard is [=MacGregor's=] liquor. Initially, Frank accuses Lily of having brought too much luggage... only for her to hold up a single daybag and point out the real culprit.
76	* ''Film/MortalKombatTheMovie'':
77	** Movie star Johnny Cage brings several large bags to dock for the trip to the tournament. After [[MistakenForServant asking Liu Kang]] to carry them for him, Liu dumps them into the bay.
78	--->'''Johnny:''' Huh. Thank God I didn't ask him to park the car.
79	** Upon first landing at the island, Johnny falls right into the water due to being weighed down by so much luggage, and then, as the crew are climbing a huge number of steps, he falls and drops some of it, prompting Liu to ask "Do you need help with those?"

She determines that this includes [[https://i.makeagif.com/media/9-07-2015/Od7fED.gif her industrial-strength hairdryer]], carried in a very large suitcase.

85	[[folder:Literature]]
86	* In ''Literature/AbleTeam #13: Scorched Earth'', Able Team is shot down while flying over a Mexican drug operation. They crashland without loss, but their pilot isn't happy when they insist on salvaging their luggage instead of getting away from the plane before the spilled fuel goes up. Then he asks how Able Team intend to lug all those cases through the mountains with the people who shot them down looking for them, and their only weapon is his sidearm. Able Team then proceeds to show [[MoreDakka exactly what they're carrying in the cases]].
87	* ''Literature/TheCallOfTheWild''. Buck and his fellow sled dogs are sold (while still weak and exhausted) to a family with no experience in such matters who proceed to overload their sled and force the dogs to pull it. The load overturns halfway down the street, and the locals come out and force them to offload half of it--for [[ACrackInTheIce all the good that does later on]].
88	* In a maternal variant, when Magrat leaves the castle in ''Literature/CarpeJugulum'', she insists that Reverend Oats haul along every toy, blanket, nappy bag, basin, potty, or bath item which her baby daughter might possibly need. Most are things which an infant that age won't be old enough to require for ''months'', and they're only away for a day or two. [[JustifiedTrope She's a first-time mum and a bit fretful.]]
89	* ''Literature/{{Clue}}'': In book 10, chapter 1 ("Murder in the Cockpit"), Miss Scarlet attempts to bring a massive pile of luggage on the plane to France so she can change outfits as many times as she feels she needs. Mr. Boddy has to tell her that since it's a small private jet, there's not enough room for it all, limiting her to a single bulging carry-on bag.

When Lady Barbara Wellesley comes aboard Hornblower's ship, the frigate HMS ''Lydia'', she has several large suitcases and chests with her.

91	* ''Literature/InCryptid'': In the novella "Singing the Comic-Con Blues", Verity packs two huge suitcases for a trip to Emerald City Comic Con, but Antimony forces her to consolidate it into one bag, since the car is taking four people. The one bag she brings is surprisingly heavy, but it's left ambiguous [[GirlyBruiser how much of its contents are clothes and how much is weaponry]].
92	* In ''Literature/ThePrincessBride'' the author states that the original book that he is summarizing the boring parts of contains a fifty-six page section on a diplomatic mission, out of which thirty-four pages are spent on characters packing their clothing, and another seventeen are spent on those same characters unpacking their wardrobes at their destination.
93	* The ComedicHero of ''Literature/{{Scoop}}'', the 1938 satire by Evelyn Waugh, is a country wildlife writer who's accidentally sent overseas as a war correspondent.

94	* In the Australian YA Novel ''[[Literature/TheTomorrowSeries Tomorrow When the War Began]]'', the character Fi, who starts out as something of a DumbBlond, (although she subverts it later and she's really more of a HairOfGoldHeartOfGold type) is ridiculed by the other characters for bringing insane amounts of luggage on a camping trip.

97	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
98	* When Donna finally becomes a companion in ''Series/DoctorWho'', she has a pile of suitcases, including a hatbox. The Doctor is particularly bewildered by the hatbox. (Arguably, this is more sensible than what most companions do, which is set off in an erratic time machine with a semi-qualified pilot in just the clothes on their backs. Although it does have an extensive wardrobe anyway.)
99	* ''Series/GilligansIsland'': Thurston Howell the Third, his wife Lovey and Ginger all took along much more luggage (mostly clothing) than they should have needed for a "three-hour cruise". On one of the occasions where they had a chance to escape the island, they insisted on taking all of their luggage with them.
100	* In ''Series/KeepingUpAppearances'', Hyacinth takes mountains of "matching executive luggage, with the genuine leather embellishments and initials" on board the cruise liner the Q E 2.
101	* Tom from ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'' brings a ridiculous number of state-of-the-art electronics to the department camping trip. Hooking them all up to the van drains the battery, leaving them all stranded.
102	* In the ''Series/RedDwarf'' episode "[[Recap/RedDwarfSeasonIFutureEchoes Future Echoes]]", the Cat is instructed to get together a few essentials before going into suspended animation. He arrives with a rack of suits and, when challenged by Lister, admits there are ten more racks he intends to take.

113	* The Incognito Princess in ''VideoGame/SunlessSkies'' is introduced sitting atop a ''mountain'' of luggage. If you bring her aboard, it's mentioned in a travel event that some of it became unsecured and concussed one of your crewmen.

116	[[folder:Western Animation]]
117	* In the ''WesternAnimation/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' episode "Island Fever", Alvin struggles to move a luggage cart overflowing with pink suitcases, footlockers, trunks, and other pieces of luggage belonging to Brittany onto the cruise ship the Sevilles and Millers are entertaining on.
118	-->'''Brittany:''' Alvin, please be careful, I have some of my favorite things in there!\
119	'''Alvin:''' Like what?\
120	'''Eleanor:''' Like everything she didn't put in ''there''...
121	:: We then see Simon, Theodore, and Dave struggle to move another, even larger luggage cart, bearing even ''more'' trunks and cases belonging to Brittany. Brittany herself even lampshades this later when the lodging accommodations are less than commodious for the kids, and she remarks, "It's a good thing I packed light!"
122	* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/AngelaAnaconda'' has the AlphaBitch Nanette assigned to hike with the same team as Angela and her friends. Nanette demands that the others help her carry what she packed, and at one point pulls out a hairdryer and asking where she can find an outlet.
123	* On ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'', Mallory is seemingly incapable of going on even just an overnight trip without bringing her entire set of red suitcases, the movement of which represents backbreaking labor for others. Also, don't you ''dare'' scuff them!
124	* On ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'', Muffy always overpacks, especially for summer camp.
125	* Bianca from ''WesternAnimation/BeverlyHillsTeens'' once brings half a dozen suitcases with "absolute necessities of life" along. Doesn't sound like much? Well, perhaps it should be mentioned she brought them for a day in a beauty salon...
126	* ''WesternAnimation/TheCrumpets'':
127	** In "Greener Pastures", when Caprice is about to escape from her family, she was about to depart with a purse. She immediately returns to her room and brings out a suitcase and a big bag in addition to the purse. Then she instantly returns to the room one last time and hauls out a boatload of luggage and chests, most of them stacked on two wagons which are strung and pulled along with a suitcase like a train.
128	** In "Granny's Twin Sister", the eponymous character visits the Crumpets with big pile of luggage.
129	** In "Gambled Gables", Uncle Hurry and Aunt Harried tasks Caprice to bring a huge number of their suitcases to the latter's house, which the couple just took over.
130	* One of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Cyberchase}}'' For Real segments had Bianca going camping with her friend. The friend mocks her for taking three bags. Bianca says it's nothing, only for the friend to open one bag and remove a sequined party dress.
131	* In ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'', the titular character decides to cope with being away from his electronics for a family fishing trip by bringing along an inflatable laboratory. [[spoiler:Though being inflatable, none of the buttons actually work.]]
132	* Less "impractical" but still over-packed is this ''WesternAnimation/GarfieldAndFriends'' example. Jon takes Garfield and Odie out camping, and Garfield hates it every time. So one time he brings an ''inflatable house'', labelled "Never leave home without a home". Jon makes an AsideGlance and asks, "This is roughing it?"
133	* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/HorseLand'' had Chloe and Zoe attempt to bring a lot of useless gadgets with them on a camping trip. [=MP3=] player, curling iron, hairdryer, smartphones, etc.

140	* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
141	** A RunningGag with Rarity, the resident beauty queen.
142	*** She first does this all the way back in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E9SweetAndElite Sweet and Elite]]" when she burdens the poor busboy with a truly ridiculous amount of luggage and he is seen collapsing under the weight of all her bags twice.
143	*** Rarity has her poor little sister drag her luggage to the campsite in an oversized cart in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E6SleeplessInPonyville Sleepless in Ponyville]]". Her necessities include an entire inflatable house, completely furnished with a queen-sized bed and a matching vase.
144	*** Parodied in "P.P.O.V. (Pony Point of View)". In Pinkie Pie's flashback, Rarity brings so much luggage to the ship that she needs a dozen ponies to carry them all. Likely exaggerated somewhat, but knowing Rarity it's probably close to the truth. Ironically, in her own flashback, she carries just a little bag, except it contains a food tray way too big for it.
145	** Rarity's "poor little sister" proves to be a heavy packer in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E5SisterhoovesSocial Sisterhooves Social]]", bringing two mountains of luggage ("Just a few necessities...") to live with Rarity for just a week. In her fully furnished house.
146	** Pinkie Pie uses HammerSpace ''extensively'', leaving people wondering ''where'' she keeps all that stuff.
147	** Big Macintosh overloads the Apple family jalopy when they go on their road trip in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E9PinkieApplePie Pinkie Apple Pie]]".
148	** As seen in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS7E24UncommonBond Uncommon Bond]]", Sunburst can put Rarity to shame with the amount of luggage he's carrying with him. Of course, those are probably mostly full of books.
149	** In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyRainbowRoadtrip'' when the cutie balloon fails to take off due to excessive weight, everypony immediately looks to Rarity. But [[NotMeThisTime this time the culprit is Twilight Sparkle]], who brought "a few papers to grade". As Spike puts it, "And by 'a few', she means slightly less than I am able to lift." Applejack promptly dumps the humongous bag overboard.
150	* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'', Pocoyo and Pato are going to camp and, despite the objections of the narrator, overcharge the Vamoosh with all their things(topping it with a bathtub and a fridge full of food) to the point that it can't fly because of the weight. Neither wants to relent on leaving any of their things, until they see Elly, who was camping with them, leaving the only thing she brought, her tiny teddy bear, to help make the plane lighter.
151	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheProudFamily'', Oscar takes his family out camping using a fairly state-of-the-art RV, and his mother Suga Mama remarks that with an RV so big, it's barely roughing it. It escalates when their rich neighbors the Boulevardezes are camping adjacent to them. Their campsite is a massive collapsible mansion.
152	* ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'': In "[[Recap/TinyToonAdventuresS2E8BusterAndBabsGoHawaiian Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian]]", Babs pack an enormous amount of luggage for her and Buster's trip to Hawaii, which Buster has the unfortunate luck of carrying.

154	'''Babs:''' So I'm roughing it.
155	* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStoryToons'': In "Hawaiian Vacation", Ken brings about 20 suitcases of clothing with him on the trip.
156	* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' had Prowl taking Sari and Bumblebee camping. Bumblebee ends up packing a lot of electronic devices. An incredulous Prowl asks how he managed to store them all. Bumblebee declines to answer, but his embarrassment suggests some of it wasn't meant as cargo space.

159	[[folder:Real Life]]
160	* Creator/DaveBarry once described this type of individual as someone "whose idea of 'roughing it' means 'turning the air conditioner to medium'".
161	* A young [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Deedes Bill Deedes]] is believed to have inspired the above-mentioned character in ''Scoop'', turning up to cover the Italian invasion of Abyssinia with almost 600 pounds of luggage.
162	* In UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution, the British General John "Gentleman Johnny" Burgoyne led his army on an ill-fated campaign through Saratoga in New York. Part of the reason why it failed was because of excessive luggage. He brought wagons full of frivolities like boxes of champagne while they were trying to make it through the woods. The chain of wagons was almost a mile long and is often nicknamed "Gentleman Johnny's Party Train" by modern audiences. With so much luggage, his army was too slow and was intercepted and defeated.
