It helps to protect each piece individually by wrapping it in paper or separating it into plastic bags. This simple layer reduces pressure and prevents the fruit from rubbing against each other.

Travelers recommend choosing firmer, slightly green fruit rather than fully ripe ones. Slightly underripe fruit handles the trip better and is less likely to get crushed in a suitcase.
