So, you’re about to go on a trip, and you’re trying to figure out what to pack in your carry-on bag. Well, let us help you out! We’ve put together a list of the essentials you’ll need for your journey.
Keep in mind that these items may vary depending on your destination, so check with the airline before packing. Anyway, without further ado, here’s what you need to bring!
1. Passport and IDYou’ll need your passport and ID when going through security. Make sure to have them readily available, as you won’t be able to board your flight without them.
2. Boarding PassYou’ll also need your boarding pass to get on the plane. If you’ve printed it out at home, make sure to bring a copy with you. If you’ve got it on your phone, make sure to have it ready to show the gate agent.
3. WalletYou’ll need money and your credit cards when traveling, so make sure to bring your wallet along.
4. Phone and ChargerYou’ll want to keep your phone charged during your trip, so bring your charger along. If you’re going to be using your phone for GPS or accessing the internet, we recommend packing an international data plan.
5. Sunscreen and SunglassesMake sure to pack sunscreen and sunglasses for your trip, especially if you’re going to a sunny destination.
6. MedicationsIf you’re taking medications with you on your trip, pack them in your carry-on bag. This includes both prescription and over-the-counter medications.
7. Snacks and WaterIt’s always good to bring snacks and water with you when traveling, especially if your flight is long. You never know when you’ll get hungry or thirsty, so it’s better to be prepared.
8. EntertainmentIf you’re traveling for a while, make sure to pack some entertainment to keep yourself busy. This could include books, magazines, movies, or games.
9. ClothingMake sure to pack enough clothing for your trip, but don’t bring too much. You don’t want to lug around a heavy bag all day.
10. ToiletriesDon’t forget to pack your toiletries, including shampoo, toothbrush, and deodorant.
11. ShoesMake sure to pack a pair of shoes that are comfortable and versatile. You’ll likely be doing a lot of walking, so you don’t want to wear shoes that will kill your feet.
12. JacketEven if you’re going somewhere warm, it’s always a good idea to pack a jacket. You never know when the weather will change, and you’ll be glad you have it with you.
13. COVID-19 SuppliesIf you’re traveling to a destination that is currently affected by COVID-19, we recommend packing the following supplies:
– Face mask
– Goggles
– Hand sanitizer
– Antibacterial wipes
– Soap
– Toilet paper
– Tissue paper
– Disinfectant spray
– Lysol wipes
These will help you stay safe and healthy during your trip. Make sure to pack them in your carry-on bag, as you may not be allowed to bring them on the plane in your checked luggage.
14. Luggage ScaleIf you’re worried about your bag being overweight, we recommend packing a luggage scale. This will help you avoid any expensive heavy baggage fees.
So, these are the essentials you’ll need for your trip. Make sure to pack them in your carry-on bag, and you’ll be good to go!
