Sometimes I would hang my suit in the bathroom and turn the shower on as hot as possible for 5 minutes. Then touch up with an iron. Most hotels either had one in the room or several available with a call to the desk or a request at check in.

My suits and shirts were exclusively Traveler's from Jos. A. Bank (I think they were bought out by Men's Wearhouse) for years, simply because once a week they were on a plane going somewhere.
They were packed, bi folded in a suitcase with plastic wrapped individually, and I learned how to fold my shirts like they were when I bought them.
As soon as I got to the hotel, I would take them out and hang them up in the bathroom and turn the hot water on in the shower. After a few hours there were no wrinkles in them.

A trick my dad taught me is to put a paper towel down on your suit jacket in the hotel and iron it that way to release some wrinkles from travel. Works like a charm

Nah, I have a real job....one in which I do not have to put on a car salesman suit and prove that I am worth something to my co-workers.

You never go to meetings with clients where a suit is normal attire? I’ve had clients where you can’t enter their building without a tie.

I pack mine in a travel garment bag (not the cheap ones from the suit store). The flight attendant will hang it up for you on the front. Just don’t forget it.

Used to business travel a lot, and learned the hard way to have critical business clothing in carry on luggage, because a bag will get lost.

.....put in a dry clean plastic bag.
This is what I do; works perfectly. Bag everything separately and the slickness of the dry cleaning bag keeps wrinkles out.

What happened to your Gulfstream?

Portable steamer for the win. Also, anyone with half a brain that knows you're traveling won't give a shite about the odd wrinkle.

Turn the shower up hot, hang your clothes on the towel rack, close the door, come back in 15 minutes.
Hours later he came back and heard the water running. Opened the door and the entire plaster ceiling or whatever it was was on his floor. Just a damn mess
But he traveled for 35 years and that is how he kept his clothes wrinkle free

At least the Japanese are smart enough to have summer dress policies that permit skipping the tie. My first time back for biz I sweat through both shirt collars, the tie, and the jacket on the way to the office.
Beware about travel/non iron clothing. It can be labeled "Traveler" but have a super tight weave, which makes it miserable for wear in the South. Unlined suits, loose weaves, are the way to go. I like the Havana collection from SuitSupply.
