🎒 Carry-On Essentials: The Only List You Need
What to keep in your carry-on so a lost or delayed bag never ruins your trip.
Why your carry-on matters
Pack your carry-on as if your checked bag might not arrive — because sometimes it doesn't. Everything essential, valuable or irreplaceable goes in the bag that stays with you.
Always in your carry-on
- Passport, ID, and copies of your bookings.
- Phone, charger and a portable battery.
- All medication (in original packaging) and a small first-aid kit.
- A change of clothes and basic toiletries (liquids under 100ml).
- Any valuables — cameras, laptop, jewelry.
Comfort for the flight
- A refillable water bottle (empty through security).
- Snacks, earphones, and a neck pillow for longer flights.
- A light layer — cabins get cold.
Smart extras
- A pen (for landing/customs forms).
- Hand sanitizer and wet wipes.
- An eSIM already installed so you have data on arrival.
Keep this bag under the seat in front so it is always within reach — and you will breeze through even if your checked luggage takes a detour.
