Captain Nowhere Important Items

This tip should be fairly common sense one would think however,
many people seem to make this mistake on a constant basis. Just
think when you are packing an item in your luggage, "If my bag
gets delayed or lost, will not having this make a mess of things for
me?" If it would be a problem, then do not pack it in your checked
luggage. Top three things that people seem to check and should
not are: Medication/ medical equipment, Car/ House keys, and ID.

If your life depends on the medication or having a refill called in
will be difficult then don't check your medication. Just check the
size restrictions on liquids with TSA other than that most all
medication should be fine for you to carry on. Medical equipment
such as breathing machines for people with sleep apnea are
allowed in addition to the number of carry on items you are
allowed and really should not be checked. Airlines do not cover
electronics under there damage policy.

Keys, they are such a small thing but can pose a huge problem.
Some people check these and then when they get home they find
they are stuck until the bag comes in with the keys in it. I have
seen people blow their top over this but really, they should be
upset with themselves for being such a bonehead. Don't pack your
keys unless, A. you want to spend some quality time getting to
know your local airport. or, B. you want to take a cab and break
into your own home.

ID such as drivers license, passport, or military ID should be on
your person without question. There really is no excuse for you if
you pack this and you deserve to look like a dope when security
sends you back down to the ticket counter to retrieve this from
your luggage. Just don't pack things like this.

Travel Safe, Travel Smart . . . Get Somewhere!
