Step 5 & 6: Get the lapels to overlap​ (Right side of the jacket should be tucked inside the left.) 

Step 7 & 8: Fold once horizontally & pack on the top of your carry on (last item in). ​

Step 4 & 5: Repeat steps 2 & 3 for the left sleeve​.

Step 6: Take bottom of the shirt and fold horizontally up to the collar.
